it has nothing to do with the shift star. You can remove the shift star all together and the shifter should still remain in the right spot. Whatever it is it doesnt sound like its inside your tranny. Just take off your clutch cover and have a look. Dont start it again though because if something inside is broke, you dont want it getting knocked around or stuck between two gears. Let us know what you find out.

Man, I know how your feeling. Relationships are ruff, that is why I plan on being single and just playing for a long time. If your like me you will only find that there are better ones out there. Take care, Mike

"BUMP" Im bringing this thread back!!!

Hey guys, One of my Banshees needs new shifting forks. I havent taken it apart yet to see which one needs replaced but would like all three of them if possible. If you have a set let me know and I can either paypal you or send payment thru mail. The banshee is a 87 but Im pretty sure that all years are the same. Thanks again, Mike

Dude, lay off the porn for a while. First thing, you have been riding a stock she, you dont know anything about fast. You might want to start with a 4 stroke before you move to a built shee, especially one thats cums, hehehehe

I simple Landing strip is fun to ride

So you want advie on riding the Florence dunes? First of all Park at the second parking lot to the left. That would be goose pasture. Until you know your bike is dependable this is the safest place to be in case you have to be towed back. For the first few hours stay close to the parking lot. If you break down way out by comp its going to be a nightmare getting back. Always keep your eye open for flags coming over hills or around corners. Keep your speed up. Going slow in sand is a lot of strain on your bike and will cause it to overheat and possible engine damage. as often as possible hit a flat and get the wind going thru the motor, running engine ice and a higher octane fuel is a huge improvement. Always be ready for a drop, I dont know how many times I have been WOT and taken a 10ft freefall. And one last thing, when in doubt, gas it!!

oops, I didnt notice you were'nt running stock carbs. have you noticed if the coolent levels have gone down at all?

First of all dont give up, your just about there. Your jetting is just off is all (way off). pilot jet should be good. Needle should be in the middle notch to start with but Id say the main is way off. I would start at 300 and go up. but before you go switching jets make sure the carbs are in synce. Take the air filter off and look into the carbs from the back. while slowly twisting the throttle make sure the carb slide go up at the same time. If this is off then you will have problems like you are describing. Sync your carbs, go up in Jet size, take a plug chop and then we'll go from there. once you get it all dialed in youll be glad you didnt get rid of it. Good Luck

I dont mean to be to blunt here but that thing looks like shit. I wouldnt waste the money on a sticker kit for that thing.

without being biased to the pipes that I run I would say that shearer, rockets, and CPI's are all fairly close in performance. If you were running one of them and then went to the other you probably wouldnt notice much of a diferance. However, going from stock to a piped shee is night and day. Its a whole diferent animal once you add pipes. Hold on cause shee's going to move your ass!!!!

thanks for the help. Ill give them all a check. The reeds looks fine and as far as I know the silencer isnt plugged up or anything. if it bogs on the bottom end does that mean I need to move my needle or change my pilot jet? if so which direction would you recommend. Thanks again

Hey guys, I just bought a 1989 CR250 for cheap. It had a blown top end and needed resleaved due to the nikosil cylinder. Anyway I got it all back together and it runs ok but just bogs at low rpm's. I adjusted the air screw several times but that didnt seem to affect it. Has anyone here worked on one of these or have any expieriance with one? Im at a loss as to what to do with it. Thanks again for any help you might have.
