With
its dominating 347cc liquid-cooled engine and twin 26mm Mikuni
carburetors, the Banshee remains the world?s only production
twin-cylinder, two-stroke high performance ATV. Other features include
a manual clutch, close ratio six speed transmission, 31.5-inch high
seat, aggressive knobby tires and powerful 30-watt halogen headlamps.
Challenging
terrain is handled by the Banshee?s double wishbone front suspension
and single shock/swingarm rear suspension, that produces nine inches
of travel up front and 8.7 inches in the rear. Braking is optimized by
a powerful
hydraulic system, featuring dual front discs and a massive single disc
in the rear. The Banshee weighs 386-pounds and features lightweight
aluminum wheels and a 3.2 gallon fuel tank.
The
2001 Banshee comes in Team Yamaha Blue/White and Black/White color
schemes and is available at Yamaha dealers nationwide.
Manufacturer?s suggested retail price is $5,999.
