  1. The money order will be sent tomorrow.
  2. I'll buy it all for $20.The extra $5(15+5)should cover most of the shipping.You take care of the rest of the shipping if needed.I'll be able to send you a money order Friday.If you accept,PM me your name,address,etc...Thanks.
  3. What mods do you have?
  4. Maybe we all need a front bumper like it has.If it helped that stock one so much,then I'm getting one and look out 200mph here I come.LOL!!!! By the way,andrew that's a very good looking banshee you have there.
  5. Why didn't he include pictures of the right cylinder.Might there be something wrong with them?I don't know.Makes me wonder.
  6. Maybe I can help(on PS:350RDZ).I was using shearer inframes.At a race in Louisiana I got beat by a banshee that had Toomey T-5's.Upset?Yeah,a little.It's SOOOOO much more than just about pipes.It is important to talk to whoever done your motor to see what they suggest.If they have done alot of motors,surely they have experimented with different pipes.Whether it's shearer,grr,cpi,or whatever you use,there's more to winning races than just a set of pipes.I'm trying the CPI's because I found a good deal on them and the guy that's going to be doing a drag porting on my banshee really likes them.Might some pipes outperform others?Sure,but compare that maybe 5 extra hp. to having a bike set-up right for a track and that extra 5 hp will seem useless very quickly.Talk to who done your motorwork and see what they suggest.There's my 2 cents or is that a whole dollar?LOL!
  7. I just registered.
  8. I think one of my friends put a raptor axle in his banshee after he bent his old axle.I believe it's a little narrower.Should work.
  9. Since I haven't actually been at that track I can't tell you for sure.I think they'll do fine though.
  10. I don't see where this would matter as far as traction goes,if you still have stock shocks.There's different opinion as far as suspesion goes.Some like struts and some like drag shocks.What ever you decide,get the quad as light as you can.I'm doing this for next year.Drag a-arms,drag axle,etc...Making a bike lighter will help your e.t.'s.I've been beat by bikes that I knew I was making more h.p. than,but they had lighter suspension components,frame mods.,etc...Might want to consider this.
  11. I think a set of pro-wedge 2's or 4-snows would work good for you.Air them up to about 2 or 3 lbs.That lets them be a little wider but once you hammer the throttle they will swell up like a top fueler(NHRA) tire.This will help your top end.The 4-snows I have work pretty good.If you race on a track that has good traction,then a longer swingarm or a wheelie bar might be in order.
  12. With my banshee,I had shearer in-frames,alcohol carbs.,and porting.To me it was plenty rideable.Good mid to top end.I liked them.I might be making a mistake,but I'm fixing to try a set of CPI out of frames for next year.Just want to see what they are like.I have seen some very fast 350's with CPI's.
  13. If it is depression you're in,I've been in your shoes.First,people that might tell you just get over it don't have any idea what they are talking about.To be a little depressed every once in a while for short periods of time is normal,to go into deep depression is a whole different matter.I went through about a year of deep depression.It was awful.Get help now before you get worse if you think that's where you're headed.Medicine might be necessary to help you through while you're getting help.Find a good reputiable counselour.There's some that can make you worse than you are,but there is some very good ones though.Ask around.Thought of suicide?Get help as fast as you can.If you ever need to,just PM me.I'll give you my phone number,e-mail address,however I can help just let me know.
  14. There's a hole on one side of the cylinder(where the pipe goes),and one on the other side (where the reeds,intakes,carbs go).Inside these holes are smaller holes.When porting,they modify these smaller holes.How's that?
  15. The banshee is in the winter project stage(need to be faster).Hope to make it next year sometime if you guys are still going then.
  16. More power is always better or is it?It don't matter if you're making 150 hp.if you can't put it to the ground.Make sure you have a good set of tires,and you might want to experiment with different gearing.I've been beat by bike I know I was making more power than they was.just was that they could put their's to the ground.Hard lesson for me to learn,but I'm learning now.
  17. I bought a set of o-rings from F.A.S.T.Racing.I never tried them before I tore the bike down.Might need to give him a call.They just might work.
  18. These pipes are still for sale they are on ebay. Let me know if you are interested.
  19. Not sure it's what you want,but I have a JTM swingarm extension for sell.It's a plus 5.It's on e-bay under swingarms.Don't think you'll be able to use a skid plate though.New they are about $180,and it's less than a year old.It has alot of adjustability for different sprockets.You will need a longer chain and brake line(not included).Shoot me a price.
  20. I have one.I'm going to an aftermarket swingarm.Don't think I have any good pictures of it.It's off a 2000 model banshee.Shoot me a price.It's still in good condition.
  21. Having trouble getting it to take the picture.If you want to see them,just give me your e-mail address.They are posted on planet sand under the 2-stroke classifieds as "banshee parts you need".
  22. Maybe no one's buying it because they are scared of it.If I didn't have so much money buried in mine,I'd be interested.Someone really needs that banshee.
  23. Making alot of changes to the banshee so I have some parts to sell. They include:RDZ(shearer)inframe pipes and a JTM aluminum(+5)swingarm extension. The pipes are chrome but not the show chrome and they have a few scratches.They are less than a year old,and I paid close to $600 for them.They might be sold,but not for sure yet.The swingarm extension works really good.Lots of adjustment for different sprockets.I think I paid about $180 for it.It is also less than a year old too. For the guys with RAPTORS,I have a prodesign airfilter.It includes the aluminum plate and the air filter.This is the one with the foam filter and "NOT" the K&N.I had it on an '01 Raptor.This is not for a banshee. Make me an offer. I plan on getting some pictures develpoed today. If they don't sell,they are e-bay bound.
  24. I am wanting to hear from people that have had a set of these or knew someone who has.I have found a set pretty cheap.I'm going to buy a set of out of frames.What are the pros and cons with these pipes.Performance compared to other pipes.I have a set of shearer inframes right now (which I'll be selling soon).Will these out of frames be any better?Anything else I should know?
  25. I just wanted to tell you that even though I've got some a-arms bought from someone else,I haven't received them yet.I'm not going to wait forever on them.I'm sure the guy with these parts will understand.If this deal falls through,I'll probably be getting in contact with you.Thanks.
