I recently bought new chain and sprockets in the heavier duty (530) thickness only to find out that the rear sprocket is a 4 bolt pattern. ... Turns out it is of the Honda pattern and needs a "Honda style sprocket hub for Banshee". Are there any companies out there apart from LSR that make the 4 bolt sprocket hub for the Banshee? Rare.

We're back

'bfs', Hope you've still got your 'Shee aswell! Rare. -
What a Summer! What a year! Wow, I've missed her. And now we're rolling again! Wing-a-ding-ding! Do you geys imagine yourselves on the Banshee, and then you get on and pin it through the gears and it's allways better than you thought it would be. ... Well, after the whole Summer without her heart in, 'Shee is a dream to ride again. I didn't even know we had 'Dunes' in Scotland, but thanks to 'BansheeScotland', we have found an amazing place in the North-East of Scotland. (Who wants to sell me a helmet-cam?) ... Got to get this place on film for you all! ... We're going back on the w/e of 26th/27th November, if anyone wants to come? Ton (Nighty), Neilgf, etc. There's everything you could imagine to do with 'Dunes'. Rare.

Sorry to make you guys wait so long for these pics. I've been so busy trying to get my own motor back up and running for the last race of the season, which was last Sunday. I gave up at 4:30 on the sunday morning. ... mostly together, but I still had bits and pieces to do and it's now a brand new engine that I was going to thrash round the MX track. I was absolutely knackered and next year isn't going anywhere. Blowing 3 engines in 8 hours has kind of made me wary of risking damaging this one. It's been lashing down (raining heavy) here all week, but tomorrow's the big day for my 'Shee. Wing-a-ding-ding!! ... Can't wait! Here's the pics of tithead's engine. Check out how the rod's sliced right out through the cases and cut a path up through the right side barrel! Rare, but saved from extinction! ... enjoy:

He's not too pissed about it. ... Wanted an upgrade anyway. The head studs/ nuts were not torquing up about a month ago and I asked him if the head had been fixed and he said "yeah". Cool, so on the 3rd race she blows. ... Coolant pouring out of the head. So... Hydrauliced and sent the rod through the casings and into one of my exhausts. ... All the nuts on that side were loose and when I told tithead, he said "Oh, I didn't realise you meant those bolts, they weren't fixed." DOH!!!!! Yeah, In it to win it. ... My one won't break (hopefully, but if it does then I'm on with the longrod blaster piston'd 370 longrod). My Wiseco longrod (stock stroke) is here now with some 795 pistons. I might have been 'ripped' through HQ on some parts to finish my rebuild, which was why I borrowed tithead's motor. (Hope not, you know who you are!) Rare.

Hey Folks, Has anyone missed me? ... Guess what, Yep! ; I've blown another engine! . ... Errr, and it's Tithead's motor!! ... More on that later. (It's the worst yet! ... You can see the crank through the casings at the front - I must take pics!). It's funny, I came on here thinking "I've got a few mates in this forum" and there's loads of you. , Rare.

Cheers Guys, and Brooke. As a Birthday present to myself (my body), I decided to give up smoking (again). ... One day down, rest of my life to go . At least I had a few beers yesterday to keep my mind off it. Today's a bit tougher! What's with the "old men" stuff? ... You're as old as you feel, and I feel about 21. (I lie ... ) .... 40 next time! Rare.
