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!!

only around $7K+ here

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.

is that something to brag about?

take the clutch cover back off and look on the back of the cover for any wear. could be your kick start gear tapping the back of the cover. push on any of the gears you might see and make sure they are all in their proper place. make sure the kick start gear disengages when motor starts.

perhaps a bent rotor. thats about the only thing I can think of or one rotor is thinner than the other. Theres not any adjustment on the front to make one wheel slow more then the other. Let us know what you figured out since this has me stumped and Id like to know what is wrong.

just start at the tailight and work forward. the wiring runs up the right side of the bike till it gets to the gas tank. once to that point it crosses over to the middle of the frame and runs down the center under the tank. thats about all there is to it. You can also get rid of a lot of those wires by disconnecting the ebrake wire, tors wires, and throttle wire. just cut those wires as close to those points as you can and remove them. once you do this you can remove that little black box above the left cylender. Hope this helped a little. If your still unclear about anything let me know.

well if anyone can figure out the code let us know. I tried to figure it out but have no Idea. Dude's making some money off of her though. Good for him.

Now this is one dude that has it figured out. Take a look at this. selling wifes shit!! That'll teach her to fuck with him again. bwah ha hah ha

no, I think he wants a truck that will last him a while seriously Toyotas are damn nice. Thats all I have (Pickup and 4runner)

Does it sound like theres a chance that all of us west coasters could get together in Florence or Winchester bay this summer? Not sure what we'd get together for but it would be nice to meet some fellow HQ'ers.

well shit happens, the postal service is not a perfect way of sending parts but some times you have to do it. Because a deal falls thru does not mean that either people are really at fault it just means that there was either some miscomunication or something was overlooked. Why dont you just split the loss in half and call it good. I have sold hundreds of items ranging from gold nuggets to motorhomes on ebay and although I try to be a honest seller stuff can get mixed up and sent to the wrong address or what have you. $15? just let it go and learn your lesson.

thats a good price, especially for anyone that wants to upgrade from rockets
