PUSH THE THROTTLE

Meat it comes down to different strokes for different folks. I can't believe that many people want it and I'm sure it'd be useful to some but you tear into the Banshee once and you'll never need to look at it again. The only thing I need my Clymers for is torque specs. There's not a single part on my Banshee I haven't torn apart and put back together with the exception of the Tors and CDI box, I knew nothing about a 2-stroke beforehand. All most people need to do in order to get the confidence to do this stuff themselves is go down to the local dealer and look at the kid who would be doing it 99% of them can't hardly pull up their pants or tie their shoes yet people think they can do a better job doing the rebuild. Once somebody tears into the shee they can really grasp how simple the design is and how easy they are to work on. I have to say I'm a little dissapointed in the price, it's gonna end up being similar to what the Bansheezone once was and it was free.

Have a good one

Congratulations Sredish

Looks like you got the market on this one BigRed get cracking. I just read the sections I needed and went and rebuilt my engine but I guess not all people learn the same I think the confidence factor will help more than the videos/pictures themslves.

A main kickback is to use the air bases in UAE when we have to do some military action against Iran. Also being friendly with the UAE will help in the case that Iran tries to block off the oil flow as they have recently threatened. UAE is very strategic for another war. Does anybody think it's a little odd that Hillary is against the port deal while Bill was just over there last week campaigning for it and atleast 3 of his top aids are hired on as lobbiests representing DPworld? The UAE pays Bill $250,000+ for each speech he gives there.

Cool idea but I don't see you putting anything more out there than anybody could find in a Clymers or already on the HQ.

I've heard that Rocketboy does this. Rocketboy you got some sort of portfolio on yourself? Do you work for somebody? What porting do you offer? If I went to the library of congress would I find any books of yours on the shelf next to the ones that Eric Gorr has written and published specifically on porting 2-strokes?

True dat. I don't care if all Gorr did was strategically weld in a special 1946 Denver mint penny to the intake his cylinders flat out run. Peak power means nothing when it's unusable.

Been there done that but you gotta know what's on the other side. 6th gear into a downed tree (hard on the brakes though) I flew atleast 15ft and the shee flipped in the air and was ready to go the other way on the opposite side of the tree. Hit it fast 5th-6th and sit back as far as you can or your front wheels will send you tumbling.

I figured you'd have to do something to compete with the Eton project. I haven't been beaten with mine by any other fourwheelers. I can't believe people think Gorr doesn't know his $hit.

First health care shouldn

Actually one of the guys that I work with was just there last fall and he is considering taking his wife on vacation there. If I were you I wouldn't judge a place simply because of the pictures you have seen on CNN.

I've never checked to see if it would just float but when I used to ride our sportsman when all my buds had 4x4's we spent alot of time in waist deep water or deeper and as long as we kept the wheels turning it would float it's way over the deeper holes. I don't think I'd dare try that with the shee though that's stuff for slow wheelers. You should just hydroplane across the top.

NO

I'm not sure if anything would be better but I doubt they'd do anything to make it any less of a bike. My bike just needs another year on it before getting rid of it.

That's pretty much what I got out of it, I think I'll wait for the '07 though then it's time to send the Honda packing.

After doing some review on this I don't see any problem with it either. The top 4 port managing companies are Hong Kong, Denmark, Singapore and then Dubai. If Anybody wants to use Dubai as a path for terrorism then they will put it in elsewhere and since only 5% of the boxes are checked they don't need any help on this end of the situation. This company is only in charge of loading and unloading ships that's not a big deal. Do we still allow airplanes to land from the UAE? (not sure if there are any direct flights, we usually route through Amsterdam) Nobody had any problems when we sold 80 F16 fighter jets to them. I think it's funny how one second some people claim we don't have any enemies over there and praise Saddam and then the next minute they try to block a sale of a foreign owned business to another foreign owned business.

Maybe you've already seen it but I found out about it today. http://www.superbikeplanet.com/2006/Feb/060214d1.htm

How much did it run you?

http://www.wftv.com/news/7257646/detail.html MARION COUNTY, Fla. -- A man has been arrested for fatally beating his roommate with a sledgehammer and a claw hammer because there was no toilet tissue in the home, authorities said. Franklin Paul Crow, 56, has been charged Monday with homicide for the death of Kenneth Matthews, 58, according to the Marion County Sheriff's Office. Crow told investigators that the men were fighting over the weekend about the toilet tissue when Matthews pulled out a rifle. Crow said he then began beating Matthews with the sledgehammer and claw hammer, according to an affidavit. Capt. Thomas Bibb said Crow initially denied his involvement with the crime, but confessed when questioned. Matthews was beaten so badly he had to be identified through his fingerprints, detectives said. Crow was being held at the Marion County jail without bond. It was not immediately known whether he had an attorney. http://www.theledger.com/apps/pbcs.dll/art.../RSS&source=RSS Man, 56, Charged in Roommate's Death A 56-year-old man accused of beating his roommate to death with a sledgehammer and a claw hammer was arrested Monday morning. Franklin Paul Crow was charged with homicide in the weekend death of Kenneth Matthews, 58. Crow is being held without bail in the Marion County Jail. Authorities with the Marion County Sheriff's Office said the suspect beat the victim in the head with a sledgehammer in their Southeast 95th Street Road home after getting upset there was no toilet tissue in the home. Capt. Thomas Bibb said Crow initially denied his involvement in the crime, at first blaming it on a local motorcycle gang. Crow confessed after detectives knocked holes in his story and alibi, Bibb, said. Detectives said Matthews had been beaten so badly that officials had to identify the body through a set of fingerprints.

Very bad news.

That's pretty good. Rocketboy, I don't know what to think on the port issue. At face value it seems pretty stupid and I have reservations on it because they would have access to classified security info. On the other hand my company has facilities in Dubai and we don't have any problems, we also have people traveling in and out of there quite frequently with no problems. I think I have found the solution that would make everybody except Democrats happy. I would like to see Halliburton step in and up the bid and take over the management on the ports.

He's great to buy from so buy up the rest of his parts.
