Lol my head lights dont work!!! What to do???? Banshee HQ advice..... RUN LEAK DOWN TEST!!! guy at Yamaha dealer said it lol not me. He finished by saying Retards...... All indications point to him being right. Dying laughing right now lol.

Lol, since you couldn't read, because he was at work and I was working on it google bansheehq sucks and you will see what others think, plus what my group of friends said, this site sucks lol, you all troll for no reason when someone does ask for help, I'm just dishin it back at ya. Yall pissy cause the problem wasn't what you all said and feel all butt hurt lmao. I got the warning on this place just recently, would have known yall were a bunch of crack baby retards I wouldn't have bothered, but now I know, and my shee is fixed, Without your alls help lmao. But as much as I'd like to sit and watch idiotic bs come across the thread, I got better things to do. Ban me, do whatever dont give a shit. Yall are a bunch of retarded fucks, your mamas should have swallowed you, used a condom, clothes hanger, or ditched you in a dumpster. See ya lol

This nailed it lmao

Retards humpin a football shooting all problems out there to be wrong with a banshee then say they got the right answer lmao

Sums it up lol, people I talked to were right bout this place lmao

Yeah ill be good, good ole 87 with 60:1, what are you talkin bout, only the best for my shee lmao. No reason to get smart when someone asks for help. I didnt know the problem at first, was aggravated that night, thought Id make a Honda crack since this is a banshee forums site and to give you all something to chuckle about but to get help at the same time and almost instantly got static. Rather blow it up than ask for help on here with how people respond . Thanks for the ones that tried helping that weren't like that and actually you are right. I tried calling my buddy first, hes owned 25 total with a banshee crated and never rode as a trophy banshee. He lives banshees. He came over looked it over with me because I was lost and he checked my work and said i did fine. Threw reeds on and ran leak test to make sure it wasn't crank seals just to be safe because right pipe was blowing white smoke, ended up being condensation anyways. But if I blow it up, I blow it up. No reason for the static, but it'll be the last time before hell freezes over before I come back here. Sorry to the good people on this community and moderators that are good but not listening to wise ass comments. Take care.

Zilla freak, my buddy came over and we ran one about a hour ago just to be sure and its good. Thanks.

O its running fine now, was a reed issue. Thanks you guys!!! Buddy came up who has 5 banshees and helped me look at it. He gave me a extra set he had, we threw them in and bam, started right up.

Water pump wasn't melted in the way your probably picturing it. It looked fine, but melted on to the shaft, all teeth were there. See this to be honest is my first banshee, and I've down replacements on it before, like pistons, rings, all that, just gets aggravating is all, but I love banshees, and I said I would sale it but I'm not, so besides that, lets get this going, ill run a leak down test on it here in the next few days. I keep focusing on the fact that it ran like it did before the water pump failure and im not saying your wrong, but wouldn't that have shown up before last night? When I ran the banshee earlier in the day? That's why I'm confused, she ran fine then two hours later nothin. But ill do that, and its not that I am half assing the rebuild, one I didnt know, and two don't have the money for all that as of right now. But thank you for your tips, I asked for the help, and appreciate you taking time to try and do so.

Ehhh may be right, but I'm sick of rebuilding, may be time to hit reset and sale it and get a Harley.

It was in neutral off being pulled, I instantly killed it, compression is fine, ran fine earlier today. Pretty sure its not that.

Deadbeat, not sure friend, well actually I know why.... Been a long two days lol, but my brother in law stupid cousin came over, doesn't know anything about four wheelers and kept saying "well if you had a 400 ex this wouldn't be a problem" being annoying and said canam and Polaris scramblers were better machines....... I felt like Arnold Schwarzenegger in true lies where he broke bill paxtons nose and killed him lol, but I just smiled and kept working on my banshee lol.

Just want to add two things but it wont let me edit on my phone When I said the part about the exhaust, left side compression seemed normal but right didnt seem to have as much.... I want to add this was at idle, and the reason I'm stumped is because I was thinking a reed issue possibly, but why I'm confused, when I throttle both left and right seem to bog down together and if I let off the throttle all the way, it eventually dies. It does kick start as well after the initial pull start. When you put it in to first gear, and throttle up, you can throttle almost all the way but she barely moves. Thought this may help as well.

So I am stumped, lit me list everything in order to make it easy for you all. Btw I'm using a cell phone to type all of this so apologize in advance for grammar errors/auto text..... So a month ago went out riding.... Radiator over flow melted a hole thru it and water pump melted inside. Luckily I cut power and had a utility right there and quickly hooked to that four wheeler and he pulled me in high gear to get airflow on it while I had it in neutral. Fast forward to yesterday and today, I took my water pump in to the glorious Yamaha shop to get it out because of how bad it was seized in the clutch cover... I went ahead bought new coolant lines for over flow box, new over flow box, aluminum water pump impeller and aluminum gear for water pump. I also bought new o rings for the cool head and opened up the top end to run a check of my piston rings, cylinders, pistons them self and by the grace of god it was alright. Ran a compression test, was right at 120 both sides. So things seem normal there.... Put in brand new spark plugs, as well as replaced the clutch since I was in there. Put new coolant and oil in, filled her up, checked, checked and re checked everything and started her up..... She sounded like a raped ape on black tar heroin... Lol Well here is the problem... I let her warm up for a few mins, take her down the road being easy on the clutch of course, but got her up to gear. She ran great.... Had a hard on.... I go to the store and come back 2 hours later tried starting her, nothing..... I cranked the hell out of her, nothing.... Finally I asked my brother in law to hook his Polaris to me to pull start me and bam she kicks on but here is the main problem.... She bogs down when you throttle. Compression out of the back right pipe seems like nothing, barely putting, back left seems normal, but when you throttle it makes a bog noise and almost dies, left side doesn't throttle up either..... We check lines for air suction and find nothing, I say hell with it and pull the right carb off, floaters seem fin, needle valve seems fine, I put it back on and tighten everything back down then repeat on left side, start her up, same thing. I am baffled because she ran fine when I left and come home and now this, I pulled her behind the house, chained and locked her up, got in my truck and starting cussing Honda for their crappy racing four wheelers (my ugly red headed abused step child) and started beating my head in to the steering wheel. Someone, anyone..... Please help me.....

Lol, good cap, either leak or somethin, its strip down time, was going to rebuild anyways, and I got a yfz to ride in the meantime....

O hell with it, 4 Mil time, doing a rebuild.... Thanks guys for everything, if I do figure out what happened, ill post it.

So update..... So everyone is stumped.... Radiator fluid is gone completely, must have blown out overflow when melted/blew.... I am wanting the check the o ring on head to see if back pressure blew in to the coolant system Since I'm in there will check piston and cylinder wall for damage, also going to Check the impeller in the pump..... Problem has become interesting now.... Any other ideas I may be leaving out....

I know, I go to Bardstown alot, gotta ride, we got a group that rides

Corinth up by Georgetown KY, got 500 acres

True lol, what part of KY?

Yea, seem to run fine, thanks guys, ill post more on what I find out, was crazy..... Still love her tho, she's been faithful!!! ill try the pump just to see tomorrow before work.... take the hose off and put more coolant in and see if it pumps in to a oil pan

No, clear trail, just was sitting there about to try up the hill and a loud poof and a ton of smoke under my ass, thought I caught on fire lmao should have seen me bail lol

See where it streaks up right be side the pipe, wonder if your right, the pipe got. Too hot... Mainly worried about the pistons..... O yea no stock heads, I have cool head on it.....
