    2nd time riding...1st with thumb throttle ..This banshee is a rocket viper ...Funniest thing ever. Who needs reverse. You just give it gas and slide it wherever you need it. Such a drift monster ... and I’m use to a drz400e which is a Tank. So the banshee didn’t wear me out ... But the trip wasn’t a problem free I have some questions( shifting is crazy a lot more though )didn’t stall didn’t foul a plug ...rode about 50 60 miles 
     

    1) After the banshee gets hot ...The kickstart gets stuck and I have to yank it ...to open it for a kick .... I’ve tried WD-40 and silicone spray any recommendations ..

    2) the brakes suck stopping sucks with so much power. I still have brake pad  And the fluids okay... I’ve also noticed that you really have to put your foot down to engage break is there adjustment ... Any recommendations to make the brakes better

    3) one of the plastics for the front  fender guard Almost touches the expansion chamber and the other side it doesn’t normal or something shifty  with my plastics...got some plastic melt ....lost bolt on ride 

    4) are the wheels small on the banshee for a reason. I need a new set. The tires on wifeS warrior are huge. Any reason for the smaller wheels.      Thanks guys 

    1) There are rebuild kits for the kicker.... quick fixes on that do not last.

    2) Bleed the rear brake (replace all the fluid, completely) think about a steel braided line too.

    3) Normal, trim the fender back a bit from the pipe to stop any more damage to the fenders.

    4) smaller tires make it easier to accelerate. you can put your wifes warrior wheels on the shee, take it for a ride and see how much worse the performance is....

  2. Quadzilla is a better chassis for this swap. Seen a lot of different versions, Raptor, Honda, suzuki, banshee.... 

     

    Turbo busa in the zilla was my favorite....

     

    But a built 4mm or 7mm will out perform the R1. 300 lbs lighter and 80-110 hp on pump gas.

     

    Properly built banshee engine will last for YEARS. My wifes 96 is still on the 64.25mm bore from 1998. Runs mint!

  3. carb issue for sure, 

    check the tube between the carbs is not cracked and seated properly.

    If that is it, are the slides in the correct carb? swapped side to side is BAD

    have you changed the pilot to a 27.5? if not, do that, and while you have the carbs off put them in a can of carb dip overnight.

    Pull them and clean every orifice with brake cleaner and blow out everything with compressed air.

    I would run torch tip cleaners through main and pilot jets, just as an SOP thing for when I go through carbs...

     

    Once assembled and back on the bike

    LIGHTLY seat the air screws, then turn them out 1.5 turns as a baseline.

    eyeball the "sync" before you assemble the rest of the intake, tank, fuel lines

     

    and again at this point I would remove the petcock and flush out the tank, clean the screen filter on the petcock and put it back together....

    new fuel lines and filter(s) drop tank on, prime fuel system and fire it up to see if it is fixed.... It idles and revs out good without load? Final assemble and take it for a putt....

  4. Ok Friend's son-in-law dumped his F450 in the friends yard. Needs the trans rebuilt. Cab and chassis, longer than long bed, single cab.

    v-10 ZF-6 trans.... the output shaft into the transfer case has no splines left. Parts to "rebuild" it are $400 give or take.

     

    anyone here ever gotten into one of these HD transmissions? 

    Done muncie, saginaw, c4, turbo 350, whatever a 96 S-10 has for a 5 speed and 4R70W's....

  5. List all the things you think are possibly the problem.

    Literally

    #1

    #2

    #3 etc

     

    Go about isolating EACH thing ONLY, make a change/swap the part. see if it changes... make notes on your list. It might be 1 thing, it could be 3 grouping together to get it all jacked up....

    Start with the gapped idea Hopped up said previously.

  6. Ok

    read this,

     

    and next

    read this again

     

    After you understand this buy 260-320 mains (if you have the jets great) 27.5-32.5 pilots

    Get a longer aftermarket needle set (i like the toomey needles)

    I have a similar set up to yours, My bike likes 280 main 27.5 pilot with the needle 2 slots from the tip.

     

    Buy 10 sets of plugs. change jets to your "baseline" and do a plug chop. post pictures of the resulting plug for review (and the inevitable peanut gallery comments)
