Well I have been lurking around here for a few months looking for random parts etc... Figured I would introduce myself and show off mine and my old ladies bikes... Finally after getting settled into our new house and after selling our bikes to fund repainting, new carpet, and appliances. I found a couple of hellacious deals on a couple bikes so I bought them so we can ride again this summer... She was really pissed I sold our bikes, and she really misses her old blaster so I suprised her with one a couple weeks ago.

Hers
2001 Yamaha Blaster Paid $300 for it
Needed rings when I bought it
Just got the head back from the machine shop today
Hopefully getting an fmf pipe off of a member for it soon enough

Mine
2001 Yamaha Banshee... long story how I got it, but I have $600 in it thus far
Kick start gear wouldnt catch all of the time, so I have it half apart in the midst of fixing it

I guess I could tell the story how i ended up with this jewel... I bought a pistol from a guy at my work for $150... It was a Walther P22. I traded the pistol and $150 for a 98 Yamaha yz125. Fixed the clutch cable and shift lever on the bike which put me at $475 in the bike. Some kid traded me the banshee for the dirtbike and $125.
