105 :yelrotflmao: Sorry i couldnt help my self!

I like to let them sit over night.

Every year my parents have what they call a life is good party on their 160 acres of land they live on. Anyways there is usually alot of older folks that know my grand parents and the family toward the start of the day. All my family and friends bring their Quads to rip around on the tons of trails all over the land. I had just widened my shee out and got the new shocks on, making the front end a bit lower than it was. In the middle of one of the fields is a rock that just sticks out the ground a bit. Having cleared it a hundred times before i rode over it about 3/4 throttle. This time my a-arm caught the rock and over the bars i went with the machine right behind me, but luckily it didnt land on me. Knocked the wind out of me and banged up my ribbs pretty bad. Once i made it back to the party i swear every person over 60 had a big jug of vikoden on them and were handing me a hand full. So the moral of the story is if your going to crash do it when old people are around cuase chances are they have some good meds on them After a few gallons of beer and a half a dozen pills i could have had both legs broke and wouldnt of known the difference. :woot:

Personally i like seeing the 250s being made. That way in 3 or 4 years there will be some used ones around when my son outgrows a 90cc.

Its so simple its brilliant! Why the hell didnt i ever think of that. :beer:

And every one knows that when the banshee gods speak all must bow down!!! :yelrotflmao:

I dont know i think i would rather pay 20$ than take the chance of wreaking an engine. Then what did you really save :shrug:

Man i would love to take a trip down there and ride with some of you other MI guys on here, but i would hate to drive that far and not be able to get in. I have trinitys with spark arresters and a raptor with a rossie pipe thats louder than the shee. It really sucks that their that strict. Is there a bunch of houses and stuff around there that thier that worried about noise?

Great find for 300$. My buddy recently found a quadzilla for 300, stripped it painted frame and sunk maybe700 into it. The original owner was over to his house and offered him 2800 cash on the spot. Good luck and welcome.

As you said a budget quad, id buy a 660 raptor if i were you. They were the number one selling sport quad for like three to four years in a row before all the 450s came out, so there is a shit load of them out there. If you look you can find a fairly new one with a pipe, maybe some cams ect. pretty hoped up ones for around 3000 to 3500. I have both a banshee and a raptor 660. I regret sinking all the money i did into the raptor with all the new 4 strokes that are coming out (some of them supposeably all you need is a pipe and controller to get over 50 horse). Banshees there is no end to the possibilities and two stroke power is just down right addicting.

I red someware that they would have to sink billions of dollars into the fourstrokes to get them to burn as clean as the e-tech does. Any ways im willing to bet that once the seven year patent is up you can almost garantee the other manufactors are going to follow suit. As far a boat motors go the e-tech is blowing everthing else out of the water. If or how long before we see the technology in stuff like dirt bikes or quads ? Well we can only dream. :shrug:

MY old lady is cool about it. She always tells me i can do what ever the hell i want to the banshee, as long as i detune and narrow up the 660 for her. Hell she even said if i make the raptor hers i can buy something new. Maybe ill have a new 700 rap in the back porch for fathers day.

I wasnt making fun of his accent by any means or think hes ignorant. Ive worked all over the mid west from MI,WI,IA,MN,IL,IN. Right now im in north west iowa and they talk like the farmers from southern WI, but if you get toward davenport IA they talk like their from the south. Shit i moved up by the upper pennisula of MI, you should here them talk around here. Alot of YAs and alreadys. Im by no means a public speaker but you would think a guy like him would get used to it. Im sure hes a strait up nice guy (witch is sometimes rare with fame) So i also sorry.

If i had to dicsribe my shee, id say the hottest bitch ive ever rode....

Im thinking of buying a diesel next time and definatly going chip it ect, ect. Would be neat to see some different things that have been done.

No shit! someone should slap him in the back of the head and yell spit it out already!

Usually when i polish mine it only takes about 5 mins LOL :biggrin:

It usually says the do not excead pressure on the side of the tire. I have a pair of stock rims for riding hard pack rocky trails that way if you ding or dent them you dont care. Most stock tires on rocks i run 3.5 pounds. If you get up around 5 it will ride like a lumber wagon on bumpy trails.

Trinitys are nice if you got the $. Get rid of the air box lid if your going to pipe it. Youll probably have to bump your main up to some were between 270-300 and maybe have to move the needle for the 3rd to the fourth clip. This all depending on elevation. Pipes will definatly wake her up though :biggrin:

Exactly. If you dont have an air box cover your better off with a pro flow kit with a clamp on, Or you can get a K&N power lid. If your running the stock lid just get some K&N sealing grease.

How old is the bike? If its been sitting awhile you might want to get rebuild kits right away and be done with it.

Is the line still for sale? if so ill take it.

This was the first reel weekend i rode since new coolhead and fluidyne rad. 21cc domes at1200 feet was about 158 on the comp tester. Running 50-50 110-93. It takes awhile to warm up. when i got around town and was running alittle slower it would climb to 200-225 on the ESR temp guage. when i would get back out on the trail it would come back down to around 180. After two long days of riding my overflow is almost empty. The jetting isnt lean if any thing in alittle rich,especially on the bottom. I checked severall times and the plugs were alittle wet. Would running race gas to rich cause it to heat up like that?

I have a buddy that races. He said that the 450 suz are about the fastest bikes at the track right now, but when there really boring and building the shit out of them, the fuel injection system cant feed enough gas. So they lean out on top and blow up. Kawi raves about there fuel injection system. its supposes to read more than the 450 suz and have an injection nozzel with like 10 different openings if im not mistaken. Any way you put it i wouldnt mind not having to tear apart tha carbs and rejet all the time. Not that its that huge of a deal but it does get sickening once in a while.

I have the clarke 5 gallon on mine. dont have any pictures but it dosent sit as high as the ims, if you want to check it out.
