Hey I am just wondering if anyone knows if warrior A arms will fit on a blaster... I have a bent A arm on the blaster and I have a warrior frame sitting... anyone know ?????/

My shee always smokes on one side more and I cant figure it out... I've heard it from others before that sometimes they do that but Idk why... as for the other question... if you primarily ride mx get a yfz 450 they are great for that other wise you'll regret getting rid of the shee... remember there was a hell of a lot of hype over the "new" raptor too when it came out and they turned out to be a big warrior with no guts...

If you are near upstate NY looking for a good place to ride check out this club... Its only $20 per year for the entire family. they have 230 acres boardered by 20,000 acres of state land. They have a sweat mx track, a nice drag track, a mud track and unlimited trails. You can ride to every bar in the county from there and you can camp anytime you want, as long as you want for free (with a membership) They have a rodeo every year and drag races... I only live 20 miles from there and I just found out all the stuff they have to offer... I joined and Its the best money Ive spent this far on riding... heres the link adirondackatv.org

I bought my 01 with alba flame graphics, umi bars, nacs clamp, sst's, v force reeds, armadillo bumper and a twist throttle for $3450.00 off ebay, I had to drive 3.5 hours to get it but it was mint with prolly less than 10 hours. stock tires with 90% tread, the paint on the engine case next to the kicker ( the spot that wears off almost as you drive it off the lot.) wasn't even started to wear off, everything was super tight... Id shop around a little bit...

you could also have a cold seizure. meaning that what audiowizard said is true but instead of just scuffing your cylinders and loosing compression and engine life the motor actually seizes and causes major dammage. weather it seizes or not you will still cause major dammage... let er idle man just let er idle... -
nickxc is the name I use for everything, every email address and account I have on the internet I use nickxc nick is my name and Iv owned 1 polaris xc 600 and 7 polaris xc 700's.

I run roads all the time. some times for 10 or 15 miles at fast pace and I go through 2 or 3 sets of rears a summer and 1 or 2 sets of fronts. I love running the roads so I just budget for it...

what pt pipes do you have??? If you have hi revs, I'll trade you a nice set of fmf sst's for them??

Thanks nater... I think I might just put the new gasket on... If im still going through head gaskets when I get my head reserfaced then there is a problem cause I know people run much higher compression and more mods than me with a stock head and gasket. I dont think I'll try the yamabond. Im worried about gettin some in the small coolant holes and blocking one of them causing a hot spot... I also found a deal on head gaskets from my uncle who is incharge of the parts dept at a dealer thats not too far away. $12 instead of $21.50... Im just hopeing that once I get the head reserfaced and check the decking on the cylinders I will be ok man I hope so!!

as you know I have been having problems with blowing head gaskets. I am having my head reserfaced because it had a small warp to it. now I talked to a guy that worked at a honda place and he has a shee that was blowing head gaskets. he put a little hondabond on both sides of the head gasket all the way around and he says he hasn't had any problems with it since. I think I will try it when I put mine back together. what do ya think???

how much compression can I run on pump gas?
nickxc replied to nickxc's topic in General Banshee Discussion

how much compression can I run on pump gas?
nickxc replied to nickxc's topic in General Banshee Discussion
idk how much it is shaved now It was done buy the engine builder that did all my other work and I never even asked. Idk how it got warped either. I just was going through head gaskets so I took it off and took it to a local stealer and they said with a straight edge on it you could see daylight in a couple places so it is no good... -
That sounds like a good deal. If I where you thats exactly what Id do. keep yourself a good frame and start building. Id definately look at em If I where close...
-
I put a straight edge on my head and I could see daylight under it so I am gunna get it shaved more to take the warp out of it. My question is I wanna safely run pump gas (keep in mind I live in the adirondack mountains and gas is lower quality here) I am currently running with 135lbs compression in each cyl. by shaveing my head more I will raise my compression more. How much compression can I run with pump gas SAFELY???
-
exactly what I was gunna say. If you wanna race motocross get a 450 they cant be beat on the track. If you wanna drag race get a banshee they cant be beat in a straight line!! If you are gunna primarily ride in tight woods go 4 stroke if you are gunna primarily run wide open terrain and roads go 2 stroke If you want a highly modifiable motor with potential for over 100 hp 2 stroke if you want gobs of low end with good pull all over but mostly flat top end 4 stroke If you want a quad that feels just like every other quad on the market (just some have more power than others but they are all the same kind of power) get a 4 stroke If you want a quad that is so different than everything out there it is scarry get the shee nothing has ever been produced nor will it be that feels like a motor that has a power stroke every 180 degrees of crank rotation ( twin cylinder 2 stroke) if you do go with the 450 at least ride a shee, everyone has to ride one before they die!!! there is simply nothing like it!!!

Ive heard good things about the nos head also. In my experience... if you are over heating cause you ride in hot weather than the cooling effect of an aftermarket head (noss, prodesign, etc...) would be worth it to ya. or if you are racing and constantly tuning for the best power and want the ability to just switch domes for different conditions or tracks. or if you wanna run race fuel sometimes and then switch back to pump gas you can run higher compression when you wanna run race fuel and then switch domes when you wanna run pump gas. I was thinking of getting an aftermarket head cause I was blowing head gaskets but I just found out I had a slight warp to my head and I think that was causeing my head gaskets to blow so Im shaving a little more off it and throwing it back on. back to your question. If you are only looking for a little more compression and still wanna run pump gas but want a little more hp. just have your stock head shaved .030 or .035 or .040. somewhere in there is usually the norm. You will get the benefits of more compression for $35 rather than $250... hope this helps.
