I will admit, their welders aren't as good as they once were. As far as rust, quit slouching and get 'em on the bike and give the them some two stroke protection.

^ the most direct way to say it.

Full specs on new motor? What jets in the carbs? Did it pass a leak down after assembly? Did you do a leak down before pulling it apart? It's gonna be a lack of fuel issue or an air leak.

There has always been PV options. But here is why you don't see many. Most guys dumping the big bucks in to these ol machines are drag/dune racers. No PV needed. Those that really benefit from them are trail guys. Majority of the trail guys aren't building high dollar stuff. It's basically a dollar to fun ratio. If the banshee was touted and designed as a Moto X machine, I'd bet it would be a totally different story. But it was a machine aimed at being king of the dunes. No need for PV's on a machine meant to sing all day at over 9K rpm.

Meh, that's a little lofty. By today's standard, they are dated. But when they came out and options were still limited they held their own. The set I sold to whitbread I was able to get to Rev when I put bigger stingers on them.

Tons of 250R stuff with PV's sorted out. Certainly makes for a more controllable ride. Just about useless for drag racing unless the machine is a heavy bitch. Plenty of drag snowmobiles still run PV's surprisingly.

Totally busting balls.

You'll want them to be 14 1/2" to 14 3/4". And make sure they are valved a little heavier to compensate for the banshee's weight. If you can't answer those questions, I'd look for used stuff actually set up for a banshee.

Because some of us ride more then 500' a year.

Not a bad set up. There was a fella on a trail ride a few years back that had a set of RZ jugs ported by Spec 2. He used a zeeltronic ignition and it was pretty fun. Not a power house by any means. But a broad 65-70 hp machine in the woods makes for an sweet ride.

Those valves are exhaust actuated.

Guys are doing Cougars on Mattoons right?

Pretty much talking about an updated T Rex.

Where have you been?!

No, stock is standard 7/8". Fat bar will typically mean 1 1/8".

Only a handful of guys with aftermarket ignitions use them to their potential. If you legitimately drag race and especially on big open stretches, it is nice. Pretty much anything else might as well just have the timing plate. Suspension and porting/domes.

Make sure the bal and rod haven't welded together.

Picking up a 535 for this season. Still building a super serval like yours for my new frame. Hopefully the later of the two isn't far off.

Wonder if this fugger ever got sorted out.

I'll take them.

Yeah, because some jaggoff keeps hoarding it all... Haha

eBay

I've got a -2 I'd consider selling. Chrome powder.

That's the point. Trying to bring it back to a good vibe. Fuck, rarely does everyone agree around here, but there is some shit you just don't say.

He said JT gots dem stoner eyes....
