  1. Hey I’ve just got my banshee back it is now a 4mil and I’m having problems with power. YFZ 450’s are problems for me and idk why. When dragging from dig in dirt I can leave quicker but they gain on me, which I know should not be happening. Any advice on this.

  2. Alright so finally had a little time to start on it this afternoon. Built the leakdown tester, bought a hand pump so I didn't kill it with my compressor. Pumped it up to 7lbs and it lost about 4 pounds in 2 minutes. Soaped it up, found a leak on the bottom of the reed on the left side, Tightened that up, pressurized it again, 7lbs and lost about 1.5lbs in 6 minutes. Soaped it up again and realized my tester was leaking slightly. Fixed that, pumped it up again and lost about .75 psi in 6 minutes.
    I've read multiple answers on what is acceptable here. 1 psi per minute loss? 1 psi over 6 minutes? Or should it hold 6 psi solid for 6 minutes? I appear to be in an acceptable range now assuming either of the first two are good. But if it has to hold 6 psi without any loss for 6 minutes, then it has to be leaking somewhere on the bottom end inside. So would you guys say I'm good to move forward on testing the other items?
    I personally would find the leak at 1psi over 6 mins. A lot of people will say run it as well, that is borderline imo.

  3. There are a few common items guys will use to pack them. Lots of folks are using fiber glass insulation. It’s short lived, but quiet and cheap. Then there is the actual Two stroke fiber packing, it’s quiet, sounds ok, and lives a long life, but it’s expensive. Then there is good ol’ fashioned steel wool. It’s cheap, sounds awesome, but it can spark and isn’t very quiet. 
    Ive always been told to use the stainless steel wool

  4. Selling this +2 arm i bought about a year ago. I got it for trails but was told by a few reputable people I should sell it to somebody who drags and get something beefier. Made by j&e Josh Dickerson. 300$ obo. Never used, not sure what its worth.5c28d4d07e5da468fc5cc3b7dbfd1c6b.jpg14f9c6152ef457c913eeebf9e317f462.jpg56008d3160a35681a45ee74748640bca.jpg
