  1. Just practice the hole shot. Don't just rev the motor and dump the clutch, these things just blow the tires off every time if you do. Try locking the front brakes and loading the bike's suspension up by slipping the clutch just a hair while your on the throttle. Friggin 450's walking on banshees, pshhhhhh. Those things may be torque monsters and all, but they pretty much peak at around 65HP with full tilt motors.(big bore, stroker, porting, valves, etc.) Not to many of those out there compared to built banshees though. Fortunately for me I have had a built banshee before the 450's even came out in 2004, and have only beat by one 450 ever thanks to Brad Tyson's fuggin handy TURBO skills. Damn thing made 105 HP without touching the bottle of spray on the bumper. Too bad it was half as reliable as any banshee. Not to mention that when it does let go it would cost 3 times as much to rebuild.

     

     

    they dont peak out at 65.

     

    my buddies trx is at 67.5 non stroker.

  2. That's true that I need to up my game on my engine compared to the guys on the HQ.....I wanted to see how much power I could get out of basically a stock engine with a little porting & bolt-ons.......but all the guys I ride with have 4jokes which makes me look very fast. One has a CR250R dirtbike that runs ok until I hit 3rd gear. The other bike is a honda 450r with a 87 CR500 powered engine but its not finished, modded 660R raptor, CRF450R, modded CRF250R, modded KFX250R, 700R raptor, modded yfz 450 & 400EX.

     

     

    i use to have a 450trx and i would smoke most of the stock cylinder banshees that were dune ported.

     

    my 450 was a non aggresive dune build.

  3. fyi, last yr at glamis rangers were taking gas containers away.

    why?

     

    they werent labled for gas or they were not read signifying the color of fuel.

    so white and blues were being pulled.

     

    rediculous if you ask me, but it was happening.

     

    this was at the wash entrance.

     

    anyways, we get fuel at the texaco, they cary race fuel on pump or in 5 gal. jugs inside.

  4. morons that don't run a front bumper and think it looks cool.

    no rear plastics, no front plastic, or both... fuckin gay

    over priced and over rated full bore plastics.

    and queer six pack racks.

     

     

    shhit. no front bumper looks better than most of any bumpers that are out there for banshee because theyre ugly aassfuckkkkk. i run fullbore and like em.

  5. Can you guys be more specific with your policy's please bc the #'s thats I'm getting from there carriers are INSANE, Geico just gave me a quote for 3k+ for my 2 bikes, progressive wants 1350.00 which doesn't sound bad compared to Geico.

    IM waiting to hear from Allstate and Rider..

     

    Not sure who else to call!!!

     

     

    the person u talked to must of not been familiar with what u wanted.

    its happened to me before, i called got a quoted for 1k, called back a diffrent day and spoke to someone else and got 185.00

  6. been going to glamis for a long time and never had any issues.

    so yeah we always roll deep and if someone tried to steal some stuff from

    our camp u can almost bet that were gonna get into some shit. but Im not gonna kill anybody and pick up no life sentence

    over some idiot wanting some material stuff. my insurance can replace it.

  7. alot of performance and atv shops in socal stopped carrying it because of the paperwork that goes with it. the store has to get your signature and send it in. they dont want to deal with it. if theres a legal drag strip near your are usually the gas station next to it will have it. i have a 76 near me that sells 100-101-110-112

  8. looks to me like every part of the country has its own banshee trend in regards to what type of riding there is. asphalt dragger, duners, hill shooters, mx, woods, and last but not least, junkers. i see a lot of junky looking bikes out there.

     

    anyways, here in socal youll find some big motor and dressed up hill shooters, i like it but like the clean slick look. +size swingarms makes any banshee look way better, cut off fenders and aftermarket headlights too.
