I Bought a Yamaha Banshee, Then I Blew it Up!

Yup, not even 1 hour of riding this 97 Yamaha Banshee and we melted a piston! In this vlog style video let's take a look at what failed and why.

Nice job on the R1. I would have been pissed if it was mine.
Really sucks about the banshee. But knowing you. It will be much better than it ever was before.

[@garagemcmatt]

Thanks bro. It's coming back together today

[@josephhamilton5185]

Buddy trying to trade for a Harley for MINT 300x that just needs the motor bolted in?? Yeah he’s TWEAKIN 😂😭

[@garagemcmatt]

Nice try on his part I guess

[@feracopictures9322]

Oh man bro it happen for a reason, that little clip could of made things hell of a lot worse then just the one head melting. I’m still fixing my new mountaineer once it’s done I got to come down give ya tries back that you lent to me.

[@garagemcmatt]

Yeah bro that c-clip could have done some real damage. I'm not worried about the wheels I'm sure I'll get them one day. I don't need them atm.

[@72mmALKYDRAGGIN]

U got to replace the bushing in the idol ⚙️ gear cuz it WILL KICK the clip AGAIN if u DONT. 😉

[@garagemcmatt]

Every bearing, bushing, thrust water, lock washer is all replaced now

The steel ones are best they fit tight

man i miss my banshee ever since the next day after trading it for a brute force 750 on a 6inch gorilla axle lift and 28inch outlaw tires . the chick i was dating kept complaining how " all i wanted to do was ride my stupid race quad " while she was bord in the stands watching . i kept my 250r from Joe Byrd and traded the banshee . it was a blue 01 with pro circuit pipes and 304 silencers with DG nerfs and a Duncan racing bumper . us men will do some stupid shit for a woman .

[@garagemcmatt]

I'm still learning how to stop doing dumb stuff and think with my big head instead of the other head. 01 was a good year, my first banshee was a black and white 01 with pro circuit exhaust. That was a nice banshee I bought it with less then 20 hours on it for $1800 back in 04. I miss those prices

[@robertdoxtator2493]

If you want it to be it's full potential and you're riding woods/play than T5s are definitely the pipe.

[@garagemcmatt]

I'm gunna run these bills pipes for a bit. I have a set of t5's on the way for options
