I would but i want my bike back together for the night races at OLDS.

Fleabay for used definitely. Jegs for new Jr dragster slicks. http://www.jegs.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/Pro...786&prmenbr=361 http://store.summitracing.com/default.asp?...t=egnsearch.asp but if you are not going to run the strip alot just air your dirt tires down around 2-6 psi depending on track condition and temperature.

MEAT_HEAD had put up a step by step post on how to polish jugs but it isn't in the images forum anymore. I saved it but i can not repost it for some reason. pm me you email and i will email it to you if you want.

Did you guys get your shocks from Flea bay or what? My best friend wants to do the suspension on his Banshee but the cost is kind of prohibitive. Used Yfz shocks just might do the trick. Great pictorial.

hopin to have my shee back together for the 27th. otherwise i will be on my not so trusty LT250R see some of you out there.

Its at Speedworld just outside of phoenix az the week before banshee wars i think. 300ft dragstrip. its all on planetsand.

in a blizzard

already done the shifter star. there is the Packard mod i might do. Anyone here done that mod? Does it help? I have a hard time getting it to shift at wide open throttle.

Those pistons have maybe 6 hours on it. Piston to cylinder clearance is still closer to the low side of the tolerance. thats why i am gonna run a spring hone down the cylinders and replace the rings. Where would i use the yamabond? Same style of stuff as gaskacinch?

I recently took my bike to Glamis and the right rod bearing decided to fail about halfway to Olds. I stopped the engine before it did and real damage to anything else. The cylinders and pistons are fine. The case is undamaged as well. I need to replace the crank. I bought a trued and welded crank. Cylinder base gaskets, Rings, O-Ring kit for the cool head, Clutch cover gasket, Clutch discs, Crank seals, and new reeds(Why not?) Can any of you that have already done this tell me if i have left anything out parts wise? I have a bundle of lint free shop rags and 2 cases of brake cleaner. And any tricks or tips that will make this easier? thanks.

Whenever you are going to use a thread insert style like the helicoil you need to use an STI (standard thread insert) tap otherwise it will not work. It is not a regular m12 tap. it has to be an M10 STI. Go buy the kit it comes with the drill bit, tap and 10 inserts. Usually costs around $45 for a high quality kit. Just like speed parts you get what you pay for. After you get it you can charge your buddies a 6 pack to fix their stuff. Extra inserts are very cheap too. What have any of you guys paid a shop to get repairs like this? Funny thing is even with a broken easy out it is only maybe 30 minutes labor and at most $ 0.45 part. add thread locker to the insert before insertion.

I jetted my buddies 04 that has t-6's k&n with stock carbs with 320 main and 32.5 pilot. needle 3 from the top. No bog off idle and screams from top to bottom. 1100ft elevation 68F.

If you are any where near San diego i can put a helicoil in it for you. Its easy and would take 10 minutes to do.

Go to Grainger or some other Industrial supply house and buy the correct Thread repair kit. Use the supplied drill. Drill it oversize. Tap it with the O/S tap and install the thread repair insert. No oversize bolts no hack jobs. no one will even notice it.

this is links to the apllicable AZ info. might get you on the right track on where to look for your location http://www.ridingarizona.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=15037 and the Arizona Game & Fish site. http://www.gf.state.az.us/pdfs/outdoor_rec...tv_brochure.pdf No Hell has shade and no humidity this time of year

I didn't say there were the better bike all around or a better duner.I also didn't say the 250rs ALWAYs WHOOPED upon gas banshee's either. i just said for stock handling without any aftermarket mods I like the 250R better. And i have seen some REALLY fast 250R's whoop up on some fast bansee's. Now my banshee has A-Arms shocks and soon to have a +4 swingarm. I'll take my banshee over any 250R. Just like my comment about the LT's they handle great. I have 2. Notice my name? Yeah my LT's haven't made a full 4-5 day trip without being put on the trailer early yet. I love the way they handle but they just don't stay together. 87-92 has a crappy chain adjustment method too. Thinking about a LT500CR or LT350Z depends on which i can get done cheaper( I already have a spare top end for a banshee just need the bottom end and exhaust). I have a complete spare LT chassis. Only need motor, exhaust and electronics. Leave it naked and make people wonder.

after it is 5 years old it would have to be emissions tested if you lived in a smog county.

I spend a lot of time at the ISDRA dunes during the cooler months. I disagree with quite a few of you guys. I have seen a ton of modded gas banshee's get spanked by 250R's. However the alky 250R's don't hold a candle to the alky drag banshee's I myself like the way the 250R handles and the powerband 265R that has an agressive port job. For the best of both worlds try getting an R chassis and put in a ported piped Banshee engine. As far as stock handling goes i will go out on a limb and say the 87-91 LT250R handles the best. It is just underpowered stock. Oh can't keep it running either.

Got 2 milled .025 and polished and .060 and polished. Both with water inlets.

Yeah you should see the look on the observers face when you start creaming and it comes out pink! Priceless. Had to go see doc and i HAD to tell him it was a joke or i was gonna get the SWAB. Doc laughed so hard he fell off the chair. That was even better than the look on the Master at arms face when he saw the sample.

No about to here. that is some seriously funny stuff.

Got lowered and lifted stuff at S10forum.com tellin ya check it out.

No kidding with a little 400 and 600 grit wet dry sand paper and plastic renew you won't even be able to tell they were scratched!

I race my LT250R and shee on an asphalt 1/8th mile. Until i ported my banshee my buddies YFZ450 would get a faster E.T. but my FMF piped and jetted Banshee would get a better M.P.H. however my other friends 440ex(totally worked with an edelbrock carb) wasn't even close to my Banshee. Beat him repeatedly by.3 seconds to .7 seconds. Depending on RT. Go to the track and practice a bit before you race him. Get used to the light or starting method where you are going to race. Bet him light for the first couple runs. $50 or so. Sand bag him. . . . Then up it to $300-$500 and waste him. Or race him for pinks.
