  1. yea you'll be fine my brother ran the loretta lynn's gncc with a stock tank. 2 hrs long 11 mile lap 3 laps total. he had like a hand full in the bottem when he finished
  2. its no different then cutting out every other row of lugs on a set of kenda knarly's, your still modifying the tread to suit your specific needs. why buy a brand new set of tires to cut the lugs out of? and just a little more info on those tires, I bought em from a local gncc racer for 25$ a tire, no holes and only a few races on em, already had the knobs "grooved". now if I bought a brand new set of razr tires for 60-70$ a tires, most likily I wouldnt be cutting on em with a grinding disc.
  3. I'd reccomend some regular maxxis razr tires. they aint as aggressive as the razr2's and are easier to slide with and stuff. I have a set that has been "grooved" where they took a grinder and cut notchs out the center of the tread knobs which lets the knobs flex more and makes it grab more on hardpack. not sure how good these tires will do in sand though...
  4. dont guess you'll be riding on the road with those
  5. EDIT: ment so say that the frame, swingarm/carrier has fresh powdercoat. frame has been cleaned up/gusseted, and cdi/electrical harness all cleaned up and moved under the gas tank.
  6. 2001 yamaha banshee, has +2+1 lonestar a-arms, TCS front shocks, steel braided front brake lines, Toomey T5 pipes and silencers, tors removal kit, pro design air filter and adaptor plate, full chassis aluminum skid plate, gripper seat cover, maxxis razr2 tires all around. I rebuilt this banshee from the frame up as a little restor project........frame and swingarm/carrier, all new bearings and seals in the swingarm and axle carrier, new chain and sprockets (14/41 gearing) with x-ring chain. the motor is all stock except for a aftermarket clutch kit and stainless steel side cover allen head bolts. was told by the previous owner that its on the origional bore, but I dont know for sure since ive not pulled the head, the pistons look clean with no blowby on the exhaust and intake. runs excellent and will idle all day, start first kick easily every time. good brakes front and rear with good pads. the bike has been gone over bottom to top, front to rear and needs nothing at all. I have always ran klotz benol mixed at 32:1 since ive had the bike. make a good trail shee for somebody. its a nice bike, but im just looking for a 450 to use for some xc racing. asking $2900 for it, or trade for a honda or yamaha 450 fourwheeler. im located in Park City, Ky 42160
  7. that video is a couple years old, but it was my 250r and our first banshee we owned. 250r was built.....ported oem 68mm jug, stock stroke spacer plate motor, thin head gasket with 200 psi running race fuel, vforce3, 38mm air stryker, esr trx5 exhaust banshee was stock motor with T5's and k&N (no lid) and also a slipping clutch.
  8. about the only advantage the HD's would have over the XCR's would be traction in deep ruts. the xcr's are alot lighter and would be alot easier to make the bike handel how you want, like sliding it around tight trees and stuff and breaking traction when you want it to. the HD's have some mean sidewall lugs and they are tricky to make em slide like you want without grabing traction and making the bike tip over on two wheels more easily
  9. ive used costal and supertech atf type f. to me, the coastal brand looks a hair thicker than the supertech. ive also used some supertech Dex-merc oil and didnt see any difference between it and the type f.
  10. well, if were going by who made this screen name here, its my brother ryan who's blue shee is in the sig, I myself have owned 3 different banshees (including the very first one we bought together) and rode/raced that 250r thats in the pic for a while until trading it for a banshee a few months ago. my brothers banshee (in the sig) is the one with the razr ballance tires. and actually, we've not sen but very few people with those tires at the races, most of em use the razr/razrII combo. these tires are very aggressive and almost give too much traction. he has to run em aired up tight with like 10psi cause thats the only way he can get em to slide and spin. he tried running em like normal tires and they bite so much its hard to control the bike under hard aggresive riding.
  11. if you do shorten the swingarm, its gonna be very important that it gets welded back square, cause if its off by much you will be eating up rear sprockets and chains in a hurry, or even throwing the chain if its bad enough.
  12. awesome write-up on this topic meat lol, hope loco dont see this or hee will have a shit fit.......he cant stand razr tires heres some pics from the 09 ironman gncc, it was nasty

    realtors?

    no ive not tried em myself, but i'd like to later on sometime. the price on em is pretty good too. to me, they look like they would be awesome for any kind of loose dirt or terrain, or even mud? looks like they would slide pretty easy too since they dont have a real aggressive sidewall lug pattern.
