Many thanks for all the replies and advice. I really appreciate it. This has helped a lot and now its a clear case of I need to do a lot more reading and educate myself with the Banshee. Just from this thread I now know in which direction I need to be searching. I realise that the Banshee torques totally different to what I am used to. But my local trails are wide open most places. And, want to get a Banshee as part of the Yamaha quad collection. The Banshee will be number 4. But dont just want any old Shee! Yes, these things are money pits. I have spent sick amounts on my Raptor, another half sick amount on the wifes Raptor 350, in the middle of a project Raptor of the moment, almost halfway spending money on it. So I know how it goes. I have been looking locally and can get Banshees between $2800 and $3800. For the latter they come in pristine condition lightly modified, mostly suspension mods. The plan is to get a nice one, and then drop about $10 000 into it in total. Thats the plan anyway, we all know how it goes. Never ends there. But I will keep my eyes wide open on here, get to know the place and the people and eventually get into contact with a Site Sponsor. I have had great dealings with site sponsors on other forums, you soon realise who are the go to guys. This forum is kick ass btw! Once again, many thanks for steering me in the right direction.

Sounds like Serval 4mm or 10mm is way to go. The porting on 2 strokes is Greek to me. Can you port for more top end power, or more low down torque? What other tips or tricks are there? Timing keys? And what are we looking at cash wise? To build a ported motor, crank, heads, pistons? What intakes are prefered? For example on the Raptor, FCI is way to go on intake.

^^^ that sounds great! So Redline are the go to guys then?! Will,remember that. Sent from my GT-P7500 using Tapatalk 2

Calling is too expensive, I live in South Africa. I will read some more and try decide myself what I will go with in the end. At the moment, I have my hands full with this, so I suppose the Banshee can wait a while. Thanks anyways for all the replies and all the help. Sent from my GT-P7500 using Tapatalk 2

Who is the best vendor on here that can set me up? Should the engine be timed? And what about a jet kit that works? Sent from my GT-P7500 using Tapatalk 2

Thanks for the welcome Rappy97. Sent from my GT-P7500 using Tapatalk 2

Yes, fast wide open trails and technical and tight. Thats why I said dune and trail. Some dune trails I ride are tight and technical, then some dunes are wide and open. Same for the trails. Basically an all round bike. Something with usable power. Not a drag application. Sent from my GT-P7500 using Tapatalk 2

Hey guys. I am new on here. Am active on Raptorhq, and also other Raptorforums. Have 2 x Raptor 700's. One is built with ported head, piston, cam, intake, throttle body and full suspension, killer trail and dune setup. Other 700 will get that soon. And a Raptor 350. So.....will be interested in a Banshee sometime soon. My question is, what do I need to do to a Banshee to have a kickass dune and trail set up engine, carb wise. The suspension I am up to date with, know what it takes here. Just I have never had a 2 stroke, so what can you guys suggest for a good reliable build? That still makes screaming power. I dont race, just recreational, but I know how to handle power on trails an dunes. I have read about cubs and cheetahs and so, but to be honest, I am very dumb with these things. All opinions shall be greatly appreciated. Sent from my GT-P7500 using Tapatalk 2
