  1. I dont know what my compression is, Im goin to call Trinity Racing this week since they did the porting, and Im running their head to see what they think. I currently have 20 cc domes but am thinking about steppin it down to 18s since im running race gas now.
  2. Just picked up the jugs and pistons. Cylinders wernt bad, but he gave them a fresh hoan, and the rings were toast. Now to tear the rest of the bike apart for a complete rebuild. Cant wait!!!!!!
  3. What did you pay for the rockets and what did you sell the T5's for? Im thinking about making this change also
  4. Removed the jugs and pistons. Rings are glued to the pistons. Guess the race gas gummed up from sitting. Im still goin to take them to the machine shop since its this far apart just to make sure all the clearances are up to spec and to see if the rings are good. Ill let you know how it turns out.
  5. Ok cool. I figured it had to be something stupid. I did leave racegas/91 mix in there for almost a year. I might just take the jugs and pistons down as well just to get them checked before i re assemble. What would you recommend for carbs? Im thnkin abou gettin some 33's or 35's and a set of billet intakes
  6. SO basically just remove the jugs and clean the rings on the pistons and re assemble? Your thinking th erings got glued to the pistion and thats why there is a loss of compression?
  7. I pulled the plugs 1 by 1 and put my thumb in the spark plug hole, the compression was weak. I out brand new top in 2 years ago and only have a few rides on it. Im goin to pull the jugs and pistons and take them to the machine shop. See what he has to say.
  8. Yea. Super weird. It poped a few times like it was goin to start then i noticed i could kick it over by hand. My guess is the rings collapsed or one cracked or something. Ill have to check them out when i get the jugs off.
  9. Well my bike has been sitting for a year or so and when i went to fire it up there was no compression. Pulled the head off and checked the cylinders, they feel smooth, rings must have taken a shit. My question is, while I have it apart should I just throw a set of rings in it or do a big bore of some sort? I dont want to spend more than 1k or so. Its already got Trinity stage 3 porting, trinity head with 20cc domes, toomey t 5 pipes, and v force 3 reeds and cages. Let me know how I should proceed.
  10. Well Im running out of time before Thanksgiving and the deal on the yellow plastic fell through. He ended up refunding my payment. So The Banshee Will go to pismo this year lookin like this
  11. Ouch! Tough crowd around here! lol It doesnt look that bad. I like the rear plastic, the front is just a little different. Im sure it will look better once the seat is on and the new wheels and tires are on.
  12. Thanks. Im doin a full makeover on her soon. Picked up some yellow fullbore plastic. Going to powder the frame black with gold flake in the clear. Should turn out good.
  13. Had some free time and I just couldnt resist! These things are amazing, really look nice on the bike.
