sweet polaris man, post some pics of that banshee with the IMS oversized tank

Here are a few pics of the banshee with the big ass tank. Got it cleaned up and have swapped all of the parts over to my other banshee. A buddy of mine came over and rode it tonight and says he wants it so hopefully it will be gone by monday.

do you like that tank wanted to get one for long rides are they worth a shit

those pipes are so shiney they look like they're photoshopped in the pic lol

This was my brothers bike and he liked the big tank. I have only rode it a few times and I can't seem to get used to it, seems to big and bulky. It does let you ride a long time though, he went 75 miles on a tank of gas when we were at hatfield and mcoy.

how many gallons of gas does it hold? the ims look good but im not sure on the amount they hold either.

If I remember correctly it holds 5.3 gallons.

Im not a fan of them either. Way to big and bulky. Junky wants one. Suprised he hasnt commente on it yet. Mabey he just realized he wouldnt be able to see over the tank. DOH! LMAO!!!

i would of taken the tank off and kept it, you never know when you might need one, i really want a red oversized clarke tank.

look at quicksands bike. its a ims oversized one. its hard to tell its not stock from the side unless you look close.

i like quick sand's tank too, but i wonder how much gas his holds?

why do you need a tank that holds more than a f-150 anyway?

what lol? i need a big tank, so i can go for long rides, without having to come back everytime to refill

Ive never had that problem????

Our fuel economy significantly improved when we switched to Lectron carbs in 2006. Since we can go 50% farther on a tank of gas, it's like having a 50% bigger tank...except better because our fuel costs went way down! I'm not trying to suck lectron off here or anything but they have paid for themselves in our stable many times over just in fuel savings.

i got keihin carbs, i gotta admit, it does go for pretty long rides on a tank, but i want longer lol, my friends yfz only went 1hr more on a tank of gas then me on my red banshee

honestly, i doubt lectron made you use less fuel, without cutting air at the same time. either you were way too rich to start, running it lean now, or are cutting both air and fuel at the same time. i run lectrons, and yes, they do perform awesome for throttle response and more consistent mixture in different conditions, but i still fall pretty short when it comes to fuel range. a shee needs a bigger tank, unless you are ridding with other banshees. it is kind of embarrassing to tell everyone else (even the 400ex) "i gotta go back for fuel" even if you leave them in the dust. only reason i never bought an oversized tank, is because they look like ass, except the one that looks ok with vents from a little distance. for the same price, though, i'm just building a fuel cell under the seat.

speaking of big tanks ...today me and vegas went from his house to jean nevada which is about 60 miles and we filled up at his house and when we got to jean we had like 3/4 tank left then we topped off and went home and took total opposite trails so i think that the 450's dont use shit for gas hahah
