phx450

We woke up the next morning and the people left trash everywhere in the flats as well. One good thing that they left was a nice air compressor. It works great, looks expensive. We picked up 2 bags worth of trash in the flats. The drags however were pretty good. Tons of fast banshees. right now i need to find a skinny 85 pound kid to race for us and we should be good.

Whats your bottom price you need to get? CASH. How far is paris from Deming new mexico? I've driven to San Antonio plenty of times, but never paris. What kind of distance are we looking at? I might be meeting a guy in New Mexico to pick his up.

Still have cash for anyone interested in selling bike in Phoenix.

Is this motor bone stock? Nobody has a stock banshee motor now days. Its all what you put into it, tuning, etc. Carbs, Pipes, Fuel all big factors. Example. Your bone stock 87 against a piped and open carb 90 would get smoked in a race.

Turbo! thats the ticket. At the night drags there was one 450, a silver one that before he broke his chain had no problems hanging with a good amount of the banshees at the hill. He was only running 4-5 pounds of boost, if he can fix the chain issue and run it at 8-9 pounds boost he will make many of banshees look bad. Just think once they get it perfected and tuned correct. That is the ticket on 4 storkes. Unless they make a two piston 450 or a 900 i guess. ?

I went on the 19th. no pictures though sorry. Just go to planet sand and look under the glamis forum. They have videos and pictures.

If you cant get rid of it let me know. I woudl be interested in it, i could meet you have way in New Mexico.

I have $2600 cash at my office right now for a banshee. Possibly $3000 if the bike is right. I'm in AZ. I wish I was on the East coast, i could have a full drag bike done! :shoothead:

I had to think you were on the east coast. Im in Az a little to far of a drive for me.

Duneable override huh? Sounds almost like a manual auto! I like the idea on the tranny, i see a bunch of people lose time on shifts.

location?

Location?

Tell me about it. I drive a lifted duramax. any ideas let me know.

I cant believe this. I have money burning a hole in my pocket to buy a banshee. Nobody here in AZ seems to want to sell one? I guess i need to get back into Dirt Bikes.

Location?

I'd buy it today! Only problem is that I'm in AZ! I have no idea of how i would pick it up. I have been looking at crappy busted up banshees all week! any ideas?

Location?

I hope it turns out fast. Whats the difference with the standard 2-5 overide and the dunable overide? Alky would probably be the next step. Never ran it before, but i understand its a tad bit more work. What is all needed for alky? float bowl modification, new needeles? You need to run the carbs dry at the end of the night right? Man why cant i be some skinny kid and put half the money in the bike!@

I'm going to go the cub route, overide 2-5 , possibly a 7 mill. Anything over 4 you have to modify cases right? Maybe i should stay with 4? Hmm?

The bigger the Bore the more CC's and Compression right? I figure since I'm building a dune drag bike only If the biggest cub made is 3-5 hundred difference and is still reliable why not. At glamis i need all the help i can get. For years now people build a fast banshee and then put there 10 year old 85 pound kid on it to ride. They Haul Ass!

Nobody in AZ huh?

I'm looking to buy a project. $1000-2500 Will buy Chassis or bikes that need some $love! Anyone know of any bikes for sale here in AZ.

So the cub motors are pretty reliable now matter how big i go?

Where are you riding the bike? Track- J-arms suck Desert Racing- J-arms suck Dragging the hill J-arms are lighter! I broke plenty of j-arms back in the day, unless your dragging , ditch them.

Well i guess i will ditch that idea! Out here in Phx who sells the cubs? I recently just bought a project banshee and in the process of stripping it down. New everything. The info i have recieved from this site is that the cub is a mid-top end monster while the Cheetah is your all around motor. But Price being a huge difference. Which Cub would you guys recomend. This is going to be a Hill Bike at Glamis only! Maybe very little flat drags at glamis as well. I dont mind maintenance, i just done want to work on this bike every weekend. What size would you guys recomend? If it will be somewhat reliable i obviously want the biggest cub they make. Thanks for the help.
