I have purchased a 04 Banshee and I need a little help with somthing. This isnt my first 'Shee as I had one in 1999. That bike was all stock and I never had the time or money to any upgrades. This bike that I have now is a little different. When i purchased the bike I was told that it had Toomey T-5 pipes and silencers and had been jetted perfectly. The previous owner also stated that the engine was never opened and was completely stock. When I rode the bike for the first time it scared the shit out of me, but I thought nothing of it as it had been about 8 years since I did any riding. Well the first time out I had some formidalbe competition, along with other banshees, I was riding with a 700Raptor, honda 450r, and a kawi kfx450. At this particular location we had a nice straight dirt road that we used for drag racing. Now mind you I am a big guy weighing in a touch over 300lbs and i expected to get tourched. Well just the opposite happened. I continually beat every bike and nearly walked away in 3rd and forth gear on the 450s. Not to mention the other banshees that ahd the same work done as me. I am curious to know what is going on here. I am thinking that maybe this guy lied to me and this bike is bored out, polished or had the timing done. I know i shouldnt be beating all of these bikes this easily. I was wondering how I could tell if the timing has been changed. Beleive me I am not complaining here, but this is just too weird and I'd love to get to the bottom of it.
Thanks
Rocco
