Banshee17Racing

I've had a 15/41 in for a while now. It was a little tall for a stock motor. But I'm diggin' the set up now.

Shee's finally together! I just got back from a little 30-40 min ride around the local trails/fields by myself. This thing is insane! I've been breaking it in, cruising around the neighborhood since Tuesday. There's definately a-hell-of-a-lot more mid-range pull all the way to the top. I've got t-5's, 2 into1 w/34 mm PJ, V-force 2's and stock pistons w/new rings. I've been messing with the main and pilot, and I think I'm pretty damn close. I just need to get her to idle . I've got a 175 main, 58 pilot, and the needle is on the 1st clip from the blunt end. I had a 45 pilot in...and got it to idle with the choke adjustment all the way up, but I didn't like how it rode. The bottom end still seems a little hesitant, so I think I might have gone too big on the pilot. I'll try a little smaller pilot and see where to go from there. But just to let you all know, this motor really kicks some ass!

25 mph in the city w/ my 2.2 s-10....not too sure what kind of motors are in the Colorados. I would ask yourself if you really NEED a v8 4x4. I would love a full-size 4x4...but being a commuting college student w/ a part time job, that wouldn't be a very smart investment. The colorados are starting to grow on me, I didn't like 'em at first. (I'm buying a 2500 ram as soon as I get out of school!)

Finally! I've been wondering if they're ever gonna finish it.

9.5 in front and 4 in the rear for MX.

You got any pics? How old are they?

Hamm's Special Light ! I tend do drink anything that's dirt fukkin' cheap, I'm a broke ass.

Open the picture up in Photobucket. Right click on it and go all the way down to "properties", click on it, and then copy the "address (URL)". Then get back onto BansheeHQ, click on "IMG" (when posting) and paste the address you just copied in the blank. Hope this helps.....

Sounds good. i wanna see some pics if you're gonna do it. Even if it doesn't work on the 80...it should look sweet!

From my experience, the best way to break 'em in is to simply wear them, around the house, in the garage....eventually they'll be broken in. This isn't the easiest way to do it, but they just form to your legs/feet a little better. Try doing a search, I remember having the same problem and read that you can coat 'em in oil and put them in a black garbage bag to let it sit outside in the sun (I've tried this a couple times w/ my thor boots and I didn't notice a difference). OR you could go buy some Tech 8's! And not worry about breaking them in.

I've got the fronts. They feel a little heavier than regular .190 rims, but I'm not sure on the exact weights on either type of rims .

yeah, they'll bolt up. But I'd recommend getting some type of aftermarket shocks some time in the future to get all of the performance out of the +2+1's.

Sweet pics! I can't wait for the season to start. What place did you end up finishing?

That'd be my guess, too.

That's brilliant!

No, 22's shouldn't rub. I've got a -2 and had studded Spider Tracs on mine. But like Blue Duece said....why the 12 tooth sprocket?

Nice bike! I'm diggin the graphic kit. What colors your frame?

It depends on where you're located. Around here, for what you listed, I'd say around $4000.00 for a newer one. It would be quite a bit cheaper to try and find a quad that has everything on it, or close to everything. I personally don't see too many rolling chasis' around here. What would stop you from making a "project" out of a stock quad? Hell....look at Sredish!!

It's sounds like your pilot jet.. BUT, remember that Banshees aren't known for there bottom end in stock form. You also need to break the motor in, in case you weren't sure about that. Welcome to the H.Q.!

Werd!! Don't have to worry about adjusting anything. This clutch lever is my third and will probably be my last. I can't see myself going back to adjusting a cable that wants to stretch and snap. I had the "MSR Raptor clutch lever" after I got rid of the stock lever. Then I broke that...and I finally told myself to buy one I'll never have to replace.

Thundercat... J/K! The biggest sled I've been on is a MXZ 600, which seemed fast enough to get me killed. I can't imagine a messin' around w/ a thundercat..

Holy shit! 4" bar risers? Definately get some before and after pics.

I just ordered the 800CC set!

Definately get QS tie rods if you get buy his a-arms. These things are fukkin' huge! I also used my stock brake lines for a couple weeks...but you'll like the SS line better for performance (and looks). I bent my stock tie rod ends and bought some Tusk ends...doin the job so far.

Yeah, me too! I'd buy a YFZ for a second quad anyday...and I'd also watch a chick ride a YFZ anyday!!
