  1. There's definitely a few cool TRI shees out there.
  2. If it's a serval, it "should" be more like a trail/dune set up. That doesn't look like it had to much done, but it's got work in all the right spots. Post photos of the exhaust inside and out, and the transfers and intake inside I possible. They don't need much material moved to make them shine if done by someone who knows what they're doing.
  3. Makes me miss Matt. He always had the cheesiest recipes.
  4. Few folks are. Just requires heavier jetting and a bit more dedication to cleaning the carbs. There are a few EFI E85 setups out there.
  5. ^ who dat fo realz? Jus wanna know if it's coo to crank one out.
  6. ^ that's good info zilla.
  7. A few things. There are lots of 16:1 alky bikes out there and I even know of a few highly oxygenated fuels that mix well at 16:1. It is definitely a rich oil/lean fuel mixture but if the bike is jetted according to the fuel it should burn majority of it. (Some synthetics excluded) If you took the average stock banshee with pipes and just started dumping 16:1 in it will definitely blow a healthy cloud and definitely dribble a bit. That was actually the suggested break in mix in earlier manuals, but people need to remember oil quality was a bit different then. Now you try that with modern synthetics and you would probably be wasting money for sure. Lots of folks have opinions and brand preference and never actually have any real reasoning for doing so other then "I dunno but it just works.". Well, I will tell you why I think in performance applications I prefer 32:1 or more oil. Certain builders set up clearances differently depending on set up which can mean that a motor is quite loose till reaching operating temp. On a 2 stroke friction over port windows is hell on pistons compared to 4 strokes. So in my opinion, the best way to protect the motor is by keeping as much oil on the surfaces inside. Put as much of a particular brand as you can and still burn or at least vaporize with out losing power. JET ACCORDINGLY, and there should t be any issues. That's just me... Snowmobiles.... Nothing wrong with that analogy IMO plenty of oil injected quads to. My favorite riding is on the ice so that makes sense to me. Two strokes really wake up in the cold and they tend to eat a lot more fuel at 30* and below which means the motor is producing more power. Might as well give it a bit more protection if you can. I have been using Blendzall at highly rich oil/lean fuel mix lately for cold and believe me, my motors are showing the results. Cylinders are showing compression longer in the season, and actual wear has been minimized.
  8. Already got the 450 calipers and what not up front, plus +3 +1 LT arms, just curious if there was another hub option. Starting to get hard to find OEM banshee hubs in cherry condition from inner bearing taper to the studs.
  9. OP, glad you sorted it out I'll post this for any one else in your shoes. Definitely need to go heavy on the pilot with the VF4 and up one maybe two sizes on main. Why is there so much info on this but every one just ignores the part about changing pilot and wonders why it won't run right? Also, Harry Balzonya. Who did you speak with at Moto T? This is the first I've heard of the issue. They should get atleast a hard season or two before coming apart, and with the amount of winter riding I do, I wouldn't expect much more then that.
  10. Do the front hubs work on banshee spindals as well or just the rears have the same splines?
  11. Shouldn't need copper washers and acorns for a Pro Design head. The small o rings should seal the studs up. But I guess if you like the way they look, go for it.
  12. Cuz fuck Niche and Athena! These should fill in all the blanks that the competition forgot. You guys are doing great stuff at driveline. Only question, any material added at the base of the transfers where they get crazy thin after porting? Photos look like there is a touch more meat.
  13. Cotton Branch makes a case saver that will cover broken case ears.
  14. Talking crankensteins or a regular banshee based Mono Jug?
  15. Yes, that is from Quality Powder Coat. He can definitely get you fixed up. Nitro Tate used to do high temp powder that held up. You just have to make sure it's rated for the temp the exhaust will see. That means someone needs an above average oven.
  16. To make those work a plate would need to be machined and adapted to the top case. In every instance I've seen, their owners go Billit cases because it just doesn't stay together that way.
  17. Swooped some Nerf Bars up and I paid a decent price and didn't expect perfection as they were used. But I did pay top dollar shipping and expected them to at least be packed in a box properly. They came to me hanging out of an undersized box and parts hanging out of the top and bottom. The bottom just blew out as there was ZERO tape and the parts hanging out of the top were like that from the get go. You can tell they tried to just wrap the stub in cardboard and hoped for the best. Nothing to keep parts from rattling all over each other. Just let the stainless pegs rub the hell out of everything. Not sure how this fella has decent rep on there but I'm curious I he is here?

  18. If you're happy with it lean wait till you ride it after it has a fatter pilot.
  19. Any interest in selling the Full bore plastics.
  20. Not recovering anything if there's no vin apparently.
