Strm Trpr

Going back up for Memorial Day Weekend.

I'll be there along with a Raptor 700 and a Honda 250R bored and stroked to a 330. It's his first ride in years and the Raptors first time to the dunes. We won't get there til late Friday night, which sucks, but oh well... See you out there. http://www.google.com/search?um=1&hl=en&biw=1600&bih=1135&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=sand+mountain%2C+nv&aq=f&aqi=g1&aql=&oq=

I have a set of PT mids with repacked Fat Boy 1 silencers. They are chromed from Duncan Racing but need a little love.

You think its internal? I've read a lot of your threads and I'm fully prepared to split the cases. Just picked up a Climers manual at my local bike shop. Chic behind the parts counter has been riding a Banshee since she was 12. She has a complete bottom-end in a box as a spare. She said if I needed anything to hit her up... Looking forward to that actually.

I'm gonna clean her up and begin pulling it apart tonight. I have a huge order from F.A.S.T. coming in on Thursday. Sucks man, I spent a shit ton of money on maintenance parts and no go fast parts except for an adjustable timing plate. My Trinity 2 into 1 carb is a 34mm Keihin jetted for sea level. Nick at F.A.S.T. suggested moving my needle clip up on notch to help lean it out some. What do you think? Sand Mountain, NV is at 4000ft.

You still have this?

Does this mod decrease the transmission's ability to hold a lot of power? I understand the idea behind the mod, and yes a mill with coolant is optimal, but usually not available without paying a price.

Ahh, that'll suck. I don't have time or the space required to pull the engine and split the cases before Memorial Day weekend. Anyone else? Here's a pic of camp at Sand Mountain, NV.

What's up fellas? I've been a lurker for years. I've had my Banshee since 95 and I'm lovin every minute of it. I picked up my Banshee back in 95 for $1k. Ripped the airbox, TORS and dual carbs off right in front of the guy I bought it from and threw that sh!t in the trash. Stripped it down to the frame sand blasted it then rattle canned it white... big mistake, but oh well, there will be a new beginning soon. I put all the mods on it in my signature and literally broke the engine in down at Pismo Beach. I always thought the trans shifted overly notchy and just figured it was the nature of the beast. I planned to straighten her out, but I live under the philosophy that if it ain't broke don't fix it. So fast foward 16 years to Sand Mountain, NV where I was out riding in the dunes for about an hour. I needed to shift down into 2nd and the shift lever just moved down but didn't click into 2nd, so I kept it in 3rd, worked the clutch and climbed to the top of a dune and parked it. Shut her down and tried to negoiate 2nd gear by hand, no dice. So basically it won't shift down to second from third. I was able to ride back to camp in 3rd and 4th, and I didn't hear any crunching, so I thought that was good. Rewind 10 years ago and I replaced the clutch with all new OEM parts. I know for a fact I didn't adjust the push rod properly and just lined up the arrows on the clutch actuator to the motor by the perch adjustment. I know, I know... I never took the basket off, so the shift shaft arm might not have the proper adjustment to the shift star pins. Thanks to the Banshee HQ forums I now know a ton more about Banshees, and I'm more than capable to adjust everything and even split the cases if need be. I'm fully prepared to buy all new clutch actuator parts and shift shaft parts including the F.A.S.T. modded shift shaft with the light spring, or should I use the OE Torsion Spring. I plan on getting a Magnum Basket, new OE inner and outer pressure plates, F.A.S.T. HD Clutch Kit, Modded Shift Star, Shift Pro w/OE Spring, Billet Neutral Safety Switch and new Pancake Bearing for the pressure plate adjustment. I will also pick up all new seals and hardware. Do the cases need to be split in order to replace the shift shaft bushing on the leftside of the motor? Sorry so long, but it's also kind of an Intro Thread too. Thanks in advance everyone.

Nice Avatar ! I think I can answer your question, I think they are Duncan Racing Mid-Range Pipes, or possibly the DR High Rev pipes, but they look exactly like mine, so my vote is DR Mid-Range pipes.

Me and 4 buddies will be there this weekend. Lifted white 06 Sierra.

Hey there, I know this is an old thread, but me and 4 buddies are coming up to Sand Mountain this Thursday thru Saturday. I'm on a Banshee and the others are on a 700 Honda w/IRS, <-- what a trip that is, Raptor 700, Raptor 350 and I think an old Wolverine 350 2wd. Come on out, we're in a white 06' 4dr Sierra with a shell lifted on 35's. Chris

I too run the Paul Turner Mid Range pipes and the Trinity 1 into 2 carb set-up. Iif I were to do it again, I'd go for some top end pipes like T5's or so, then some porting with a 40mm carb. That should rock it up nicely for both the dunes and racing.
