Thats how people are the brakes don't work but he never used them so it's not a big deal yeah f that I need brakes on everything that moves so I can stop it when I need it to stop
One thing to look for when Banshees won't cold start is that the float bowl is on the correct carburetor. The bowl with the jet in the bottom must go on the carb with the choke, otherwise the choke will not function. People tend to switch them up during a routine carb clean and never notice it.
I used to do the same thing when I was younger, and had a lot of fun doing it. Road trips for quads, bikes etc, fix em up and sell the ones I didn't get attached to. Great hobby, great videos. I watch them with my young sons, little do they know they have two lt50s that need a little work coming their way Christmas morning!
Going to be an epic Xmas morning for your boys. My daughter and I ride, when we picked up her 50cc viper we had to do some work to get it running, she loves it so much though worth every penny
Just recently found Joe's channel!!! Love it, for all the knowledge he shares with us and the awesome people whose comments let me know there are still good people in this world. Hope your boy's enjoyed the bike's you got them for Christmas!!!!
That dude sounded lit! The prices on the big bore quads is just insane. Reminds me of shopping for a diesel truck this year. I didn't buy one because I knew they were all overpriced. Now they're coming down again. Hopefully ATV's follow suit. If you're flipping machines don't forget to account for your time spent searching classifieds, driving to and from a purchase, licensing, fuel/lube, insurance. We need to get good deals on purchases or it isn't worth doing.
Pull front plastics, should be a vin tag in there. I think you should find it and run it through NCIC. If we suspect that we do every time. Had 2 last year that we recovered for a guy. Were stolen out of his driveway trailer and all. We got both quads and he left the trailer, so clean sweep. He came out to my shop to verify it was them and started crying. Felt good to help, and we repaired them both.
You really should be doing leak down test on the older 2 strokes. Could have 150psi in both cylinders for a hot minute if you’ve got an air leak. That was a score of the year. Respect the machine
👍👍👍👍👍🤜🤛 two things one the dumb question did you ever find the Vin because you’re right where you’re looking that’s where it should be to one of the things they used to do was strip the paint and everything off and then fill it in with if you take the lead weights from the tire balancer and melted to the frame and then sand, it smooth you would never know it was there or not and then paint it over so it’s a possibility it’s there. You may have the heat up the frame to melt the lead out so that’s another way of knowing and I know this was put out over a year ago so I don’t even know if you’re gonna see this message lol
"I don't know, I never use the front brakes. I was assuming they did"(worked). 🙄 Oh yeah, the rear brake is defunct as well!🤷🏽♂ "I down shift it(changing the subject)I... I actually traded two quads for this... " Who needs brakes, right? "Like I said,(did he?)I smashed my truck so I'm getting that out of impound today" Is this guy for real? Do not trust any information he has to offer. Air filter has to be (hose)clamped to the intake.
You riding in the deep snow just spinning and having a blast really brought back my memories of doing it too. I felt the wind and all the smells and feelings!! Great video!!
I was looking at that same banshee, but I'm glad I didn't go through with the buy because I'm looking at my buddies now and his is heavily modified and because your having a blast with it, love watching your videos, unfortunately I'm late with my comment
PRO TIP: When looking at used machines, prior to personally starting said machine, place your hand on the engine to check to see if it had already been running.
@@mrsandman5679unfortunately it is not. I've had to stop buddies from forking over money for a bike that was very obviously warm prior to the buy. People get blinders when a big purchase is looming, so it isn't uncommon for someone purchasing their first atv/mx and not even look it over.
yup and still i forget to do that... and i have bought like 20 quads... u still will forget stuff and get home and be like FUKKK i didnt look at that and see that there more problems then i wish... but then again i buy cheap shit and never perfect quads...
That guy was lucky to get $2500 with no VIN. There are very, very few people who will buy a quad with the VIN scratched off the frame or want to do a full swap to a new titled frame.
Thats a crazy unique sounding pipe on that banshee. Kinda makes it sound like a snowmobile mated with a shifter cart or a crotch rocket. Lol. Definitely takes away from the unique sound banshees have but its still cool. Sweet find.
Not oem gaskets most of your green gaskets are trash and leak i wouldn't buy a wuad if i noticed green gaskets at the price they originally asked once noticed
Doesn’t seem horrible. A running banshee for 2500 isn’t bad. Has some goodies on it. Compression seems good! Just needs a little love it’ll be a good one
Back in the day, we used to put screws in the knobs of the tires for traction. We used to cut the screws shorter than the knobs (obviously) . The hex screws made the best traction. Great videos, bro.
That chain has a few hours on it. Spotted a couple locked links. I'd check to see if the sprockets were replaced and the old chain kept. When the friction areas between the pins and bushing wear and make the chain appear to have stretched, which it doesn't do, using it on new sprockets will quickly wear them out. Still watching and think someone's gonna have a blast with it when you're finished with it.
Time to try out the snow mobiles. I told you where you could buy some cogs for the Ski Daddler in that video I looked them up and they sell them. ! Never fear Ski Doo Sprockets out of Dennis Kirk...Work great on my Daddlers
@@robspear03 I'm shocked at all the comments of "What a great deal!!!". Lol. VIN-less quads are as hard to sell as vehicles with salvage titles. That seller was lucky to find someone willing to pay $2500 for it.
I had one way back in the early 2000 with the same color scheme!!! Absolutely a blast!! I would end up going down to little Sahara in Waynoka Oklahoma!! I would go down there for the rattlesnake roundup!!! Tons of fun for sure!!!
VIN straight got removed. Yamaha VINs are on that lower left frame rail. Safe to say then, it was stolen at one point. Who else grinds a vin off for any other purpose
I like to pick back up and check play in axle. Shake those front wheels for play along with a arms. Im a big bearing checker when buying. Check air filter tells how it was or is maintained. I bought a Raptor 660 project- did a 686 big bore all mechanical is new. Soon be plastics and powder coat frame etc. Prices are up along with parts so my 6 projects are on hold.
Once again Joe gets a killer deal. But I would tear down the engine and check it out, because on the first start up it didn't sound right. Now I will continue on the video. But The Deals Joe gets is Incredible. Oh maybe it didn't sound right because of the 2 into 1 header pipe.
Most likely you’re right and the brakes were a huge issue for me. You can’t ride a 2 stroke without brakes man. Engine braking is terrible for 2 strokes.
I've seen these go for way more, this is a steal! I've always heard from a family member to break things in hard to they are hard to break. Followed this rule and it's never failed me yet 🤣
The chokes on those carbs sometimes don't stay out and retract each time you kick. I had to hold my choke with my left hand to make sure it would start when cold.
Bet that thing is stolen. Vin doesn't come off without a grinder. That dude was shady AF. And he wasn't rebuilding anything. If he was capable of doing that , he'd had those brakes working
That guy sounds like he got a DWI. He also said that he smashed his truck and that it was in impound. They don't put vehicles in impound just for a tow (though, with how much he was slurring, he could have actually meant "I was smashed, and have to get my truck out of impound.").
That is the best-sounding banshee I've ever heard. It sounds a lot like the 380 2-cylinder in some snowmobiles. You get crazy deals on all your machines. Keep up the great content and good find!
Love banshees my dream quad next to a quadzilla 2vintage should totally buy a set of paddle tires and throw them on the banshee and make a Sik vid of him rippin it on the land!!!
Yep, real curious to find out if he got the title. Something didn’t seem right about the deal…couldn’t find the vin, guy needed money, dropped the price 1K on an already dirt cheap asking price…
@@jamesweaver9636 was one taken a few weeks ago in Columbus ,Ohio. Kid had it running. Some guy jumped on it and took off with it right in front a of owner. Just rebuilt it and put a bunch of money in it
On the 1995 through 1998 the vin numbers are on two places on those where you looked at already.& Where the handle bars go in at to. Like on Honda trail 70& up dirt bikes have on them.
I agree it sound good but revved up so quick.. Sounds super crispy. I'd jump to 200 main in both carbs. And see what it does from there but on the motors I rebuild I like to run the Jets a little rich for break in..
always wondered it 2 wheel 4 wheelers will go threw the snow good with rear studs sence there light my honda formen 4x4 been broke down for a year now think it needs a trans and seems cheep to get a 2 wheel 2 stroke 4 wheeler plus i havent worked on any 4 strokes seems like theres alot to them
Brakes don't bleed them self you will find out when they airlock when your throttle is pinned I learned the hard way by letting someone other them me touch my stuff fronts locked up and there was no releaseing them without tools was 8 miles from the nearest tools ended up cutting the brake line be smart and get all the air out just like your doing with the back
Yup. Working on a street bike the front caliper was seizing, wouldn't release.. dropped the bike due to not taking it serious enough.. now I'm anal about brakes on this older stuff.. I rebuild calipers and replace lines if any question at all..not worth it
It is a factory replacement frame that's why there is no vin. Those are original 1995 plastics and I know the top end was done recently, but not sure about the bottom. I've owned that quad before
Yeah my race quad doesn't have a vin either because of that. It's weird but yeah the original owner snapped the frame in a gncc race and then went to honda to have it swapped out. The new frame has a serial number listed on the paperwork but no actual vin on that plate in the front where hondas have them.
you have the best content full down to details , i learn something new everytime i watch your videos. inspirtation for sure ! do you sell the quads and bikes you fix or just keep them ? you are the type of guy i would make a pruchase wit no question very honest and trustworhy salute to you
I love how you bargain him to lower the price because it needs alot of work and you fixed the brakes and lights in like 20 minutes. Thats always a win in my books
If you look back at 52:40 of the video, you can make out a few digits of what might be a part of a vin number. Amazing what a camera lens can pick up that we don't see when looking
This banshee looks shady to me those are def not the shock color for 1995…yellow is the right color shocks…those pinkish color is from 92-93 yr….and how does this shee only have one exhaust cause they come 2 ?? The vin # I believe is more towards the left going towards the A-arms
I have a suggestion for us the see the Vacuum gage Y not put some kind of hook or put a magnet on the back of the gage someway to hang in on the side someway or the frame I’m watching older videos know till you get your knew ones out Thanks for the great content
Hey joe I watch your videos regularly you’ve been doing a long time love seeing new content keep up the good work lol tell Charlie he needs to come be in a few more vids too it be nice to see the ole 125r and your cr250 out ripped when it’s warm again
Working on it rebuilding these off roads vehicles is a good amount of work because you can do 90 percent of it and the last 10 percent is the hardest to finish up so to all the little odds and ends.
I was just going to say there should be a grease zert on the rear swing arm!! I no mine did because I had to replace a couple times after falling out!! You definitely want to keep it greased up for sure with all the movement it sees!!! That banshee definitely sounds pretty good on video I thought!! I would definitely find a different pipe though!!!
When I used to ride in the snow in my younger days,lol, I used to let some air out of the rear tires for a little extra traction. Sometimes it worked but not every time!!😎💪🇺🇸
Joe when checking compression on twin cylinders or above you want to crank each cylinder the same amount. You kicked the one side like 15 times and the other side 20 times your gonna get an incorrect reading. Want to crank them at the same amount
Check underneath the plastic where the handle bars go into it at for the front end steering like on dirt bikes.& Bicycles to. Honda stamps their vin numbers in that area a lot to. As long as it's on the frame.& It's clear vin you can titled it as well.
The vin on frame should match the engine. If they don’t match and no title ur fucked to get a title made! Lol $2500.00 is fair but I bet that dude would of taken less. To add, Put BR9’s in it. 8’s are too hot for after market pipes. And I didn’t see the rubber diaphragm in the screw on lid.. maybe a clogged pilot but definitely need a 30 or a 32.5 pilot in that thing with the splash guards over the mains. Good luck bro
I’ve got 2 blasters that are complete for sale. Both blasters are 1st gen w/drum brakes in the front with the head light mounted to the bars and NOT incorporated with-in the plastics. These machines look great with original plastics and quality graphics along with new seat covers. Both motors run and 1 has a few aftermarket parts like 3mil stroke, weisco pistons, pro circuit pipe and silencer, v-force 4, and the brakes work! Lol 😂 I’ve got blaster crap everywhere and you are welcome to it all including a spare motor. I’ve lost interest even a spare motor. What’s a decent price??? I think for content projects these would be great. I also have a chassis, plastics, front/rear grab bar, and motor replacement stainless bolt kit individually labeled to used in the correct spot. Let me kno ur thoughts and most importantly keep up the good work showing the children of these days get out and about, tinker with machines of any kind, or just simply change the oil or a clutch by themselves , because of your ambition and determination to start and finish any tasks completely to the end VS doing things half-assed!! Best Regards, Santa Clause
You have to lift up the rear end and check for play in the axle after owning one for 5 years I realized lifting it and spinning the wheels was easiest to oil the chain and then I noticed there’s play in it and I can’t find any videos on how to fix
Is it really bad to over fill a motor with oil? I heard you mention this in the video. I have a 2000 xr 250 and the dip stick always seams low or nothing showing when I proper amount of oil in. The bike holds oil in the frame and there is a process for checking it. I follow the procedure, but it always seems low so then I add more oil. Am I causing a problem? Any help or info I would really appreciate thanks. Love the chanel been watching and a subscriber for a couple years.
That guy was just all full of BS. "I don't use brakes", RIGHT! I would pull that top end and check it. There is NO WAY that engine was rebuilt.
He was high as a kite
I said the exact same thing there's no way that engine was rebuilt it would fire off on the first kick if it had been
@@staind288 I was literally going to say the same thing. Lol

You were spot on where that vin should be at, I'd be suspicious if that is a stolen bike, hope all will be good
You 100% can just bypass the TORS (Throttle Over Ride System) with no issues at all. Also, you were correct in where the VIN should have been.
yeah that thing is stolen 100%%%%%% LOLZ

I agree it sound good but revved up so quick.. Sounds super crispy. I'd jump to 200 main in both carbs. And see what it does from there but on the motors I rebuild I like to run the Jets a little rich for break in..
My banshee with just pipes and filter called for 260 main jets
always wondered it 2 wheel 4 wheelers will go threw the snow good with rear studs sence there light my honda formen 4x4 been broke down for a year now think it needs a trans and seems cheep to get a 2 wheel 2 stroke 4 wheeler plus i havent worked on any 4 strokes seems like theres alot to them
Brakes don't bleed them self you will find out when they airlock when your throttle is pinned I learned the hard way by letting someone other them me touch my stuff fronts locked up and there was no releaseing them without tools was 8 miles from the nearest tools ended up cutting the brake line be smart and get all the air out just like your doing with the back
Yup. Working on a street bike the front caliper was seizing, wouldn't release.. dropped the bike due to not taking it serious enough.. now I'm anal about brakes on this older stuff.. I rebuild calipers and replace lines if any question at all..not worth it
Last one we worked on in my shop, the guy that owned it found an aftermarket oil cap wit a dip stick on it.. kinda neat.
3:20 that guy is drunk lol
@@LM-id1bb :D
Did you put regular engine oil? Type F transmission fluid is mich better alternative keep in mind it's 2 cycle engine your lubing gears not bearings
It is a factory replacement frame that's why there is no vin. Those are original 1995 plastics and I know the top end was done recently, but not sure about the bottom. I've owned that quad before
Yeah my race quad doesn't have a vin either because of that. It's weird but yeah the original owner snapped the frame in a gncc race and then went to honda to have it swapped out. The new frame has a serial number listed on the paperwork but no actual vin on that plate in the front where hondas have them.
cool
You owned that exact quad?
@@SHOTS-FIRED yes
Hopefully he sees this
you have the best content full down to details , i learn something new everytime i watch your videos. inspirtation for sure ! do you sell the quads and bikes you fix or just keep them ? you are the type of guy i would make a pruchase wit no question very honest and trustworhy salute to you
"do you know what the vin is on these things?"
"Yeah somewhere on the frame or motor"
Bruh 🤯
I love how you bargain him to lower the price because it needs alot of work and you fixed the brakes and lights in like 20 minutes. Thats always a win in my books
New subscriber here, love the videos!
Thanks for subscribing!
Ahhh. That sound of a rattling kickstarter. 😂 it’s a quick fix and makes your riding experience a 1000x better.
$2500 Bucks. Runs Great, Looks Great. No Vin #. Hmmm. Stolen? Seems to good to be True.
If you look back at 52:40 of the video, you can make out a few digits of what might be a part of a vin number. Amazing what a camera lens can pick up that we don't see when looking
This banshee looks shady to me those are def not the shock color for 1995…yellow is the right color shocks…those pinkish color is from 92-93 yr….and how does this shee only have one exhaust cause they come 2 ??
The vin # I believe is more towards the left going towards the A-arms
I have a suggestion for us the see the Vacuum gage Y not put some kind of hook or put a magnet on the back of the gage someway to hang in on the side someway or the frame I’m watching older videos know till you get your knew ones out Thanks for the great content
Sounds like this boys sipping on grandpa‘s cough medicine. Lol
Hey joe I watch your videos regularly you’ve been doing a long time love seeing new content keep up the good work lol tell Charlie he needs to come be in a few more vids too it be nice to see the ole 125r and your cr250 out ripped when it’s warm again
Working on it rebuilding these off roads vehicles is a good amount of work because you can do 90 percent of it and the last 10 percent is the hardest to finish up so to all the little odds and ends.
The purple and yellow banshee was my favorite
Congratulation.

There is a good chance if you have the area where the VIN should be, magnafluxing may show it.
I was just going to say there should be a grease zert on the rear swing arm!! I no mine did because I had to replace a couple times after falling out!! You definitely want to keep it greased up for sure with all the movement it sees!!! That banshee definitely sounds pretty good on video I thought!! I would definitely find a different pipe though!!!
Did you buy this from Philip Seymour Hoffman?!! 😂
When I used to ride in the snow in my younger days,lol, I used to let some air out of the rear tires for a little extra traction. Sometimes it worked but not every time!!😎💪🇺🇸
Joe when checking compression on twin cylinders or above you want to crank each cylinder the same amount. You kicked the one side like 15 times and the other side 20 times your gonna get an incorrect reading. Want to crank them at the same amount
Check underneath the plastic where the handle bars go into it at for the front end steering like on dirt bikes.& Bicycles to. Honda stamps their vin numbers in that area a lot to. As long as it's on the frame.& It's clear vin you can titled it as well.
The vin on frame should match the engine. If they don’t match and no title ur fucked to get a title made! Lol $2500.00 is fair but I bet that dude would of taken less. To add, Put BR9’s in it. 8’s are too hot for after market pipes. And I didn’t see the rubber diaphragm in the screw on lid.. maybe a clogged pilot but definitely need a 30 or a 32.5 pilot in that thing with the splash guards over the mains. Good luck bro
I’ve got 2 blasters that are complete for sale. Both blasters are 1st gen w/drum brakes in the front with the head light mounted to the bars and NOT incorporated with-in the plastics. These machines look great with original plastics and quality graphics along with new seat covers. Both motors run and 1 has a few aftermarket parts like 3mil stroke, weisco pistons, pro circuit pipe and silencer, v-force 4, and the brakes work! Lol 😂 I’ve got blaster crap everywhere and you are welcome to it all including a spare motor. I’ve lost interest even a spare motor. What’s a decent price??? I think for content projects these would be great. I also have a chassis, plastics, front/rear grab bar, and motor replacement stainless bolt kit individually labeled to used in the correct spot. Let me kno ur thoughts and most importantly keep up the good work showing the children of these days get out and about, tinker with machines of any kind, or just simply change the oil or a clutch by themselves , because of your ambition and determination to start and finish any tasks completely to the end VS doing things half-assed!!
Best Regards,

I don’t know much about the banshee and it wouldn’t make much sense to me but what r the numbers for on the left side case??
I wonder how the seller smashed his truck, lol.
He sounds drunk lol
Probably tried downshifting instead of using the brakes!
I think ya needed the STUDDED SNOW TIRES LOL
finessed the guy a bit... good job..
You have to lift up the rear end and check for play in the axle after owning one for 5 years I realized lifting it and spinning the wheels was easiest to oil the chain and then I noticed there’s play in it and I can’t find any videos on how to fix
Seller seems sketch
Is it really bad to over fill a motor with oil? I heard you mention this in the video. I have a 2000 xr 250 and the dip stick always seams low or nothing showing when I proper amount of oil in. The bike holds oil in the frame and there is a process for checking it. I follow the procedure, but it always seems low so then I add more oil. Am I causing a problem? Any help or info I would really appreciate thanks. Love the chanel been watching and a subscriber for a couple years.
