Im gonna try to shoot for a dune trip for halloween weekend. If i do make it there i will meet up with you guys at the beach store! Takin the Banshee and the CRF, but i'll take the banshee to China wall! :beer:
Actually a long rod doesnt change the stroke length at all. Since the Rod is 5Mil longer, the wrist pin hole in the piston is raised 5 Mil to acct for the differance in the Connecting rod. It eases the angles that the rod travels thru and is suposed to make the engine a bit more reliable.
I does look like you have A Arms for a differant quad. The upper arms should be the same length. maybe they are and its a bad picture. Also, and im not sure on this, but does the curve go fwd with janessen arms or not? I know my quicksand arms (+2+1) have the upper a arm curve towards the front.
I have a 6X12' carry-on trailer. It has a loading ramp on the back, and rails all around the front and sides. I have had a bunch of stuff on it. One trip to the dunes we had an:
LT250, Banshee, 400EX and a grill and all our crap on it. 2,900lb GVWR.
Yep i agree. im running Skat Traks, 2 seasons on them and they look great. I run about 4-5 PSI in them. Also Gary martin (quicksand motorsports) only runs Skat Traks, and I have never heard or saw him complain about his tires. Thats on a 10 Mil stroker too.
yes being both a banshee owner, and a CRF450 owner i would have to give the nod to the CRF. This damn bike is fast. on the road you can loft the front end in any gear. its a bit scary.
Just a pic from this last weekend riding.
and yes i did clear the triple!!!
you can ride on base down here in Arizona as well. Im about to start working on getting my new CRF450X street legal. I cant street legal the banshee in AZ because its a 97 and we all know it wont pass emisions testing.
yeah, dealer says 2 full tanks, manual says 15 miles......ill probably just ride it somewhat nice for the 30 mins or so. thow in a Heat cycle or two and thats about it. Change the oil in the engine and tranny after the 1st tank of gas
For 2,000 bucks. If the shee is in good shape that would be hard to beat. as far as speed and HP. 70ish for top speed and 30HP or so. Depends what mods it has and all that.
