i got a 2002 cr 250 , looking for a banshee,

i got a 98 just built , total motor , ported , k+n , +4 time , fmf pipes, v force, new seals bearings , dura blue axle +2 a arms ohlins front shocks , pep rear shock , alot more , didnt even ride it yet , just started it in the garage , in new york , but i have friend that drives across country all the time

nothing will out last a honda ! yamahas are pretty good too , ktm's are built well also , have good motors but suspension sucks ass , no link rear is complete pos, and their forks arent much better , especially a couple of years ago , a little better now not as good a major 4 japs

a helicoil is alot stronger than just tapping threads, the only reason it came out is because it wasnt installed right , probably didnt brake off the little tab after he threaded in the helicoil

i have a dura blue 2+2 axle , not bent , nothing stripped , comes with spacers and nuts

redskins

all the sic shit always happens near us , i was working right next to that bowling alley today ,helldriver how did the race in nj go ?

the best way to check for spark is to take out spark plug from cylinder and plug it into cap and touch it to bare metal of cylinder and kick , or you can unplug cap from plug and stick a screw driver into cap ond hold the metal part of screw driver 1/8 inch away from plug (so spark can jump ) and kick and watch for spark

the idle gear clip fell off on my motor and it went into the clutch basket gear , fucked that gear up , then broke the plastic water pump gear and over heated my motor , that was a expensive leson to learn , wish there was a better way to hold that idle gear on

clutch break in , ride it like you stole it

clutch being to tight ? sound like it might be slipping , get a repair manual and ajust the clutch properly , with the arrow on the case and the clutch arm , maybe time for a new clutch

i had a bad crank seal on right side , my tranny was getting pressure and pissing out the over flow , pressure inside the crank pushed out the crank seal and into the tranny ,

i just raced my brother on his trx 450 with a cam and pipe and k+n , and beat him , not by much but i dont have many mods , pipes ,v force , k+n , +4 timing advance im starting to like this banshee, going to take it in the sand tommorro , probably even better

never going to believe this , cleaned carbs and took it for a ride again , 15 minutes and it died again let it cool down ran then died , while sitting there and thinking about just setting it on fire right where it sits , saw that the gas cap vent hose had a kink in it , took it off and it runs like a raped ape, starts on first kick , i cant believe something that stupid drove almost crazy , thanks for all your help guys , has this happened to anyone else ?

thanks guys i will try new jetting tommorro , will let you guys know how it works out

got a set of cylinders on stock bore , off a 2002 , mint condition 250 + shipping , on ebay right now

dealer ship near me (new york )had them in stock , honda dealer too,

ok , rebuilt the motor ,top and bottom , brand new , mods are +4 timing advance , fmf fattys , k+n no lid , v -force reeds , tors removed , jetted with vitos jet kit w/ 300 mains , sea level , (ny) . ran good when started up ,a little hard to start, bogs till warmed up, idled fine sounded good , first ride had a small bog at bottom end , (still new to banshee , heard they all have it ) about 15 minutes into ride started to bog down , then would hardly run at all , after 10 minutes sitting started up and seamed to run fine , brought it home , when cold a litttle hard to start , about 7 kicks , and bogs and stalls till warm , compression is still good. is it possible for the jetting off , ( let it run good for about 10 minutes then to shit ) sounds like its loading up with fuel (if possible ) please help just built this shee from scratch , about to part out if i cant get it to run good , (maybe 4 poke)dont want to but geting tire of working on this thing

did you say it sat for a year ? check for air leaks , carb boots could be cracked ? maybe crank seal?

i have a nice strait j arm frame with swing arm and shock for sale

screw a screw into it and pull it out with plyers

was torqing down head nuts and a stud was pulling out of the cylinders , now im going to helicoil the stud back in , does any one know the stud thread size so i can get a heli coil

pull off the cylinder , you might get lucky and be able to see it under the rod , i dont think it could go out the exhaust
