Yamaha350T

ok, i go to a technical high school, and in order to graduate we need to do a project in our shop and write a paper on it. Im in welding shop, and ive built a custom round housing from a stocker w/ the housing from Alloy Specialties my sophomore year, and i figure its the best project i could think of to do now . Now what i need is as much info as all of you can throw at me. Pics would also be great too. Whats worked better, what hasnt. My 1st and only one i built is still working great on JKJK's shee. I really need to see what you guys have done for jigs, because my family has 4 banshees all togother, and they are all gonna get one probably in the future. How to's and pics basically! thanks

ya thats what i thought it was, i have to do a compression test on it still.

ya thats what i thought it was, i have to do a compression test on it still.

my banshee runs alright but then when it starts to get hot it boils the antifreeze in the cylinders. i think its my head gasket because it is pressurizing the cooling systemand the cap on my overflow bottle blows off. any suggestions on what it might be? and i think my water impeller is good.

im sellin a nice 01 on cape cod maybe i could meet you half way for $3500. has pc pipes, boyeson reeds, new top end, lots of powdercoating, new chain and sprockets, renthal bars, e brake block off, new chain sliders and rollers and much more!!. It is really fast for the money, but i need to pay for my new one i just picked up. pm m e if interested.

ill trade a brand new $300 chrome lonestar stem w renthal $130 twinwalls for either ohlins or elka front shocks or a good rear.

I need the phone number to alloy specialties for a round housing setup. I need to do a project for the welding shop im in at a tech school to graduate so i figure i should just build another swingarm. Anybody got any carriers for cheap that i could put in em?

i just picked up a 2001 shee w/ Trex heads, 35mm carbs, ricky stator w. adjustable plate, dyna fs ign., and k+n clamp ons. Now i need to know if the plug the former owner was using (BR8ES), same as stock, is the correct plug to us. Also, when i got it, he had just put in the new stator due to a no spark prob. So i bought it with no spark, threw a coil in it, and it started right up. After about 2 hours of riding, the things left cyl. quit. I pulled the plugs, they were brown, and checked for spark, and it had none. So i switched plug wires, and the left cyl was still dead. When i got it home, i pulled everything off down to the reeds, which were fine. The just for shits and giggles i checked for spark, and they were both bright blue again. Do you think the dyna box is cookin' the stock coil? And what kinda clutch should i get for it that will hold up? it has a Magura hydraulic setup but with blown plates. And how much hp should my setup make? Thanks in advace for the help.

Whenever I ride, my riding boots melt to my pipes. How do you get the melted plastic off? I know some people wirebrush it, but that ruins your finish on the pipes. PLEASE HELP!!

what kind of riding do you do? I remember when my bike used to overheat it was because I didnt get the air goin through the radiator enough. You need to bring it down a straightaway ever once in a while to get the cool air through it. These bikes are 2 cyl with a not so big radiator, so they heat up fast. The heat on your legs is normal, especially with aftermarket pipes. Riding pants and boots make that problem a little better.

thats a good point. JKJK, if your not interested in the complete bike, then ill make it stock probably and sell you the parts. Ill add up what all the stuff is worth and give it to you for a deal.

thanks JKJK, i was thinking about doing exactly that. It seems that most people are afraid of banshees as it is, nevermind with all kinds of mods. I am definitely going to keep the swingarm to sell to you with the carrier. I might put stock pipes on and shit, but im not sure yet. But ya, if i make it stock then il definitely sell the parts to you . I just need to pay for my car. Hey, make me an offer on the whole bike JKJK, I would like to sell it to you because then I wouldnt have to see it go to hell.

Ok, since nobody is interested yet, can anybody tell me if I am asking too high of a price, even if your not interested. Its hard to sell these bikes around me and Im not sure what would be a good price to ask. The bike is seriously like new.

many extras include:::Pc pipes, renthal twinwall bars, lonestar steering stem, alba graphics, e brake b/o, moose lever, boyeson reeds, wiseco top end, shock covers, tm designworks chain slider and rear roller/guide, new sprockets and rk chain, a lot of powdercoating, k and n w/ pro flo, hinson clutch, ac bumper/grab bar, eyeball light covers, just went through the whole bike and replaced evry bearing and bushing, and all new brakes. Have a custom swingarm that is -2 w/ round carrier that I had pics of a while back on here, it also has a RAD carrier. I can put a stockk swingarm back on if you dont like -2 and are interested in the bike. I have holeshots that go with the stock swingarm, or maxxis sur traks that go with the -2. This bike ahs been very well maintained and runs and rides perfect. I need to pay for wheels and other things on my car. E mail me and ill send you pics at [email protected]. I'm asking $5000 or best offer, and I am VERY NEGOTIABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, thanks for the help. I thought that could be the problem.
