just get one made, or take a stock Z swinger and have it stretched out.

I'm not so sure the Banshee swinger wouldn't work with minimal mods. I've been curious to see try this myself, before.
Since both bikes use the same suspension linkage, it would seem that you could just mark and remove the center section of the Banshee front tube and install some bushings. You would have to use all Banshee rear carrier and rear brake caliper to make this work as well, but I think it might work!
2007 YAMAHA YTZ450 went to a great home RIP Sam
The 85 and 86 Z's have different linkage. What year does the banshee share with?Originally Posted by Derrick Adams
'02 Honda 416ex - A seasoned blend of 11 herbs and spices
'04 Honda Recon - The yard machine and snow plow
'88 Honda CR250R - Another chapter in my torrid all terrain affair
The linkage looks the same, but they are different dimensions. Neither the old style or new style Banshee matches mine. The Warrior is closer but it doesnt match either.
But when its all said and done, and you hack the center chunk out of a Banshee swingarm, and fabricate it to work, what do you gain? I guess my question goes back to the original post, in asking, why do you want to put a Banshee swingarm on a Tri-Z?
