RAPOR SOLD!!! Price reduced on banshee. $2950 FIRM

2002 raptor 660r, Emergency funds needed and forced to sell. Stage II cam, T4 pro circuit FULL exhaust, stock tires and rims with about 40% left on rear tires, lone star brake calipers, it is a GYT-R bike with an aftermarket decal kit and seat cover, pro flow, pro design intake manifold with pro flow filter, head lights, tail lights, and brake lights all work perfectly. AC Aluminum nerf bars with black nets. Bike starts and runs, perfectly, and will sit there and idle all day like a dream. Sounds awesome too... $3500 1998 drag banshee. Started building this bike about 8 months ago and lost interest. Engine is basically stock but bored .30 over with wiseco light weights, boyeson pyramids reeds, less than 30 hours on rebuild. I've got a brand new bolt kit for the engine that rids the bike of those damn screw driver type heads and now has allen wrench style heads. pro flow pro design intake manifold with brand new k&n filter and outerwear. Plastics are 2002 design, billet grill, gas cap, and oil dipstick. Tires and rims are stock off of a 2002 and have about 95%+ tread left. New front and rear sprockets and chain. New clutch cable and swingarm pivot bearings. Trinity out-frame drag pipes, 8" extended Tyson swingarm with 8" extended steel braided brake line. I'm a K-state graduate so the flaming power cat decals are my favorite part but they don't have to stay. This bike is extremely loud and gets all the looks it deserves....$3500 Both bikes were recently powerwashed and cleaned up. Both look great. Absolutely hate to sell, however, priorities, priorities, priorities. Many more details on each bike. I'm not that dependable at answering PM's or responding to thread replys so email me.

Thats what I was wondering. Thought maybe they came off of something like a blaster or warrior. Probably a pretty universal part. Thanks guys. SC

bought a trinity 2:1 setup from a guy but he didn't send a throttle cable. Anybody have a cable for a 35mm keihein carb or the whole twist setup? Let me know what you got.

I don't know what I was thinking. I meant to put this thread in swap and trade. Anyway, let me know either way

This is where I meant to put it. Sorry... I've still got my full set of wheels. Rear wheels are off of a 98 with 90%+ tread and the fronts are about 50% tread on aftermarket offset rims. Front rims could be cleaned up pretty good. The bead on one rim is a little beat up but the other is in good shape. Run straight and do not wobble. I'd like to get a 2:1 carb setup, preferably trinity, but let me know what you got. Pictures of the wheels are on imagestation under the link in my signature. Will separate them if necessary.

I'm sure there is someone out there who knows a lot more than I do also, like I said these projects didn't last long but you learn so much as you go along. The motors came in the buggies but they were out of a couple of vw bug cars. The transmissions were both out of vw buses and I think that is the best way to go tranny wise. They are stronger and last longer. With the motors I had there was no way I was ever going to be able to get the front end up. Even on the side of a dune it just lacked the ponies. With a lighter front end and a bigger motor, like I said 1835 and up, wheelying and manipulating the wheely with turning brakes would be alot easier. I had a problem with even climbing dunes and reaching top speed with my motors. Please note, however, that these motors were completely stock and straight out of the cars. I do not know the potential of them but I've been told the the 1835 is an all around good motor, horsepower wise and they have a lot of potential for mods.

Last year I "invested" in a couple of these buggies. They came dirt cheap so I picked them up. The only thing I have to say is definitely go bigger than a 1600. They both had these engines and they might as well have been 5 horse briggs motors back there. They had absolutely no power. I realize I probably could've put some mods on to make them a little more snappy but the 1835 and up motors are just awesome to work with and use. As for parts, I did alot of shopping through the Hot VW's magazine (they also have an online site www.hotvws.com) and I went to a buggies forum for info and parts swapping (www.dune-buggy.com) Good luck with the rails, I had fun with them, I just wish they were a little cheaper to build.

You're doing it right. in-lbs are just ft-lbs multiplied by 12.

I've got a set. pm me and let me know what you think.http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4287546351 arrow through the pictures, they're there somewhere

Pipes have sold. Wheels and nerfs still available. Will go on ebay this week if there are no takers. Thanks.

T5's are showing their use but have absolutely no dents or holes and still sound awesome! The nerfs are also very used but come with everything to mount except the crossbar clamps that clamp them to the frame. I can separate the wheels if neccessary. The rear wheels are off of a 98 and have about 90%+ tread left and are in very good condition. The fronts have, I'm guessing, about 40-50% tread left and are on aftermarket offset rims. They are pretty beat up but run straight and do not wobble. Ask me anything, I have extra close up and personal pictures of the wheel tread if anyone wants. Thanks. I will figure out imagestation shortly and have pictures up. This site is saying I can't upload this kind of file...stay tuned.

Thanks for all the info, I'm on it.

I added an 8 over swing arm and the way the shock is attached makes the rear end sit way too low. I could cut the tabs that the shock linkage it bolted to and put them higher but the arm is chromed and didn't want to do that. I was just going to extend the shock to, yes, give it more travel. When I sit on the bike the plastics are about 6 inches off the wheels and I'm not going to strictly drag. If I was this would be the perfect setup but I'm still going to ride dunes. Are there any other tricks that could give the bike more travel with this set up without extending the shock?

wondering if there is any way to extend my rear stock shock a few inches. Are there shocks out there that fit a banshee but are a few inches taller that can be used??? any tips will help. thanks

Has anyone seen the YFZ against a Raptor? I'm hearing all this hype about how fast and powerful this new bike is but I would think that a raptor is still the better deal.

Sounds good. I'm outta here in May but have a lot of friends up here and will be back alot. There are some pretty good places to ride around here but I really don't get to get to them much. My banshee is sitting at home right now about 200 miles from here but I'll bring it up if there's anybody who wants to go.

Well I spoke too soon. They showed up today. I wasn't here to sign for them but they will be at the post office on monday morning for me. Thats a load off. Big Blue: Yeah I like it here, as long as I'm not in classes. K-State's fine and all but I would just rather be outside with my hands on something. I had a really good friend working out at AIB, you might know her. She worked as a Teacher's assistant, but taught the class.

I bought a set of stock wheels, coming up on two weeks ago, from an HQ member. They were shipped in two separate boxes, at the same time, through the US Mail. I've only received one box and that was 3 days ago. How in the world would I go about tracking down the other box? Can I take the numbers off of this box and go in? Has anybody else had this problem? I've got one front wheel and one back wheel, as of right now, so I'm at a stand-still. Let me know any ideas. Thanks

Hey bansheeboy, what kinda shape are your fullbores in? Is everything there or just front and rears???

What's the best to use for brake line when the swingarm is extended. Steel braided, or some of that stiffened line. Anything, let me know.

sent you a pm yamahammer
