Went out last night with Druncle and picked up this monster; a 2000 Yamaha Banshee. For all my 2 wheeled interest, I’m an ATV man when it comes to spring/summer powersports. In case you’ve been living under a rock, these Banshee’s are KILLERS! With a 350cc twin, water cooled 2-stroke motor, aftermarket aluminum head and FMF pipe, this thing cranks out about 45HP making it the fastest-accelerating two-stroke engine ever produced. Not bad for weighing in at only 386lbs. It’s no chopper or bobber but it is crazy fast, good old-fashioned Minnesota fun !

Here in the Midwest we fill our tanks with high grade petrol and fuel stabilizer while our bikes sleep quietly in the corners of our garages and minds. Once the snow melts from the roof top, it’s time for a little spring tuning. Just got my parts for a well needed tune-up. I’m particularly pumped about my new dual carb sync tool.

It’s cold out here in the Twin Cities but we’ve finally begun our spring thaw! With that, Gringo and Mickey’s Moto Psych Swap Meet is back at the St. Paul Armory on March 14th. There was a lot of great stuff out there last time including the dude from LifeisFuct with a bunch of merch. Speed Club was also in attendance. We got rid of a bunch of stuff from the garage including an awesome cafe headlight and tail section from an old cafe Sportster. I’ve attached some photos from the last swap back in December. That’s right… Midwest cycle freaks do it in the snow. Dig it – See you there!
