  1. Spark plugs do not create heat. What the heat rating on a spark plug actually is is a heat dissapation rating. The "hotter" the plug,( B7es) the less heat it will dissapate. These plugs have more surface area (insulator nose is longer) in contact with combustion gasses, therefore remains "hotter". A B9es has less surface area exposed (insulator nose is shorter) therefore it will dissapate heat quicker into the cooling system. These plugs are used with High compression/high performance engines that see higher internal temps.(nitrous) But these plugs will foul easier due to the fact they don't burn off as much carbon as a "hotter plug. I run these plugs. This is why draggers are always changing plugs. Don't change from br8es unless you understand and have reason to do so. Hope this helps.
  2. Well that takes all the fun out of it. Mexicali, huh? No wonder all you Californians are bailing out and heading for Az. Every third plate on the freeway here is Californian. Come on over, bring your money with you.
  3. ^^ what he said.
  4. Nice! Do a plug chop and get her jetted right(now that you have swung from a 148 to 160)
  5. Dump the timing plate. You shouldn't run one with a Dyna fs. Does it idle clean? What happens when you pin the throttle from idle in neutral? What pipes u running? Ported? Did you have this problem when you had it dynoed? Kinda sounds like you arn't willing to ride in the powerband, the only way you can ride a modded Banshee effectively in sand. Of course a stock Banshee has a more manageable low end. Keep your revs up and let us know how it goes.
  6. what carbs ru running, nucklehead? Elevation? Your girlfriends measurements?(please include pic) Gotta be more specific.
  7. Just stick a couple new plugs in your pocket and a cresent wrench in your sock at your riding spot. Get her good and warm, throw the new plugs in, put the old ones in your pocket, pin her in sixth, clutch,kill, put old plugs in, ride home. Camel packs are great for holding extra plugs, a crescent wrench, beer,joints,muscle relaxers,black beautys, cameras(so your friends don't call you a liar when you find 2 lipstick lesbians playing hide the Milk Vetch stick out in the middle of Glamis).
  8. If those reeds arn't closed flush with the cage, it could spell trouble. You might want to flip the petal over so it is flush. What throttle position do you notice the worst misfire? Might want to look at your stator/flywheel. My flywheel started rubbing the pick-up wires after I changed to an adjustable timing plate. It kept running like hell (misfiring, fouling plugs on the left). I must have rejetted 5 times before it just completely died. It had finally severed the wire. This was one of the most frustrating breakdowns I have ever had. Problem plauged me for 2 months. The fix cost me $2 for some solder(sp).
  9. Just get a Clymer's manual. It has the wiring diagram inside.
  10. No, you are thinking of San Francisco. We gave that city to the French Canadiens after all those queers got hitched over there. There is a HUGE, HUGE difference between chicks making out and dudes making out. America likes chicks making out. America hates dudes settling down.
  11. Right on, man. Way to multiply!
  12. Naw. Just refering to an old thread fight on here. I might have seen the ones you are talking about at the sand sports show in Phoenix 2 years ago. Do they kinda look like feathers? Black in color? Very ugly looking.
  13. lost 5 times straight.
  14. Death and destruction lurks in those Dunes at night.
  15. I run Dyna fs. Lots of adjustability on the timing advance and add-on capabilities. (tach,auto nitrous switch...etc) Works great for me.
  16. Your right, they come with heavy ass aluminum alloy wheels. Ditch 'em for some blue labels.
  17. I have an '03 cdi sittin' around.......$100 + shipping and its yours
  18. Do a plug chop and get back to us. The main jet may not be your problem.
  19. I quit counting. It could easily be 15K, but I really dont want to know. Free with a 6 month waiting list. Canada suks.
  20. Looks like someone dunked it in a vat of armor-all. Nice turbos, but the rust makes the bike.
  21. Don't bore for the sake of gaining a little power. You won't get that much of a gain, and you will lose precious rebuilds. Bore if there is damage to justify it, and only enough to clean out the damage. It's gonna cost you $45-100 a jug to get a bore job, plus $150-200 for a piston kit. Do it if engine damage warrants it. If there is no damage, spend your coin on other upgrades. Rebuild time comes around soon enough. You could also spend a little of your money on typing classes.
  22. Smells like you need new O rings in front. If it spits oil out the back, don't worry. Your Banshee is just marking it's territory.
  23. Not at the dunes, bro. Bring any cr500 you want, and there will be banshees givin it to you all weekend. On dirt, I'll give you the race. In sand, your dead.
  24. Don't think so. http://www.putfile.com/media.php?n=really-fast
  25. I smell another divorce. Damn those big breasted women.
