  7. Burned up piston, not sure why?

    I have seen fuel lines or filters get clogged and lean out, check that. Also air leaks, stuck float, main clog, any of those cold be a problem. I had a 2001 YZ 125 and i just rebuilt it it had maybe 2 hours on it, a plug check said it was rich on the top end so i figured wen it got all broke in i wood play with the jetting. well about a week later i was going down the road about 1/2 throttle and the thing just died, it lost all compression and everything well i got it home and it had went lean..... you tell me what happened!

    I've seen it a dozen times. Hill racing is the big thing here. Every time I've seen it we have attributed it to coasting down the hill with the clutch pulled in. The gear will weld itself to the shaft just as blowit said. Fact is that the clutch needs to be engaged anytime the bike is moving to properly lube the transmission. I would imagine that debris and shavings in the oil could be a huge contributing factor as well if not properly maintained. One other thing could be bent shift forks. They will bend if you shift without your clutch (only exception is override trannies).

    Ok well i sometimes coast with the clutch pulled And i shift with out the clutch some of the time and i have not changed the oil for a while so the possibility's are endless

    UPDATE

    I pulled the clutch basket off and that little plate that holds that bearing in, one of the skrus was missing and it was stuck between the crank gear and the crank bearing!!!!!!!

    One common failure we have seen is I believe 3rd or 4th gear that tried to weld to the drive axle in the trans. It will cause bind and loss of power until it welds up. We have not attributed this to lack of oil but we think debris in the oil causes it. The banshee does not have a way to filter the oil so contaminates build up without regular changes.

     

    You are best to pull the clutch cover and clutch and verify what is locked and go from there. I have also seen them break the shifter system and cause the trans to lock between gears and roast some trans parts.

    Well the other day i was riding my banshee, as I pulled into my friends drive way and i shifted to first. About the time i let out the clutch it skidded to a stop and the motor died. I dint know what the deal was so i started it up again and it tuck off, About ten feet later it did it again. So i started it again and went to go and it just died. I went to shift down thinking i was in 6th gear or something and it wouldn't shift down so i tried to go into N and the shifter was like frozen. well i dicked with it a little and couldn't get it to shift and also there is no slack in the sprocket like its just locked up. So now its sitting in my shop in the same condition and I'm wondering what the fuck's wrong with it, so if anyone has any idea let me know.

     

    Thanks

  17. Port pics and sizes.

    Exhaust and transfer heights and widths are going to be the biggest factor on how a port job performs. The main concept on intake design (which oddly enough is the first place 9 of 10 people look on a ported set of cylinders) is to increase flow without slowing velocity. I personally style my intakes very similar to the first set that jbooker posted. But, as said before...transfers and exhaust are really the biggest part to a good port job.

    Do you do porting? I have hear alot about polishing different parts, the only thing i can see polishing is the exhaust so the carbon don't build up. Iv been looking at a lot of pics and how_to's and I'm not sure if i can do this. I'm going to out fit my dermal tool with some cool shit and try on this YZ80 and if I fuck it up i don't think Ill do my banshee.

    I am sure it is a general book. I doubt it is going to tell you to make the transfers 2mm wider and 3 mm taller. It will probably also be a more focused on Single Cylinder Motor Cycle engines.

     

    What works for a Big 500 and what works for a 125 are going to be two totaly different things. Then you have to figure in what pipe your going to run.

     

    I would leave real porting to some one that knows what they are doing if your looking for real power. If your just cleaning things up then go for it. When you start opeaning ports up, you change the timing and durations. It is like dropping in a cam in a 4 stroke. If you had your own welder and bench grinder would you make your own "Performance Cam"?

    sounds like my buddy

    he doesnt even know how to adjust his needle clip setting

    but hes talking about porting his cylinders while they are off

    "yea lots of people have told me its easy, just take a dremel and make all the openings a little bigger"

    i was cracking up, even funnier was his ignorant friend telling me i was wrong when i said "its 100 times easier to ruin it and make less power than it is to gain power" (a thing ive heard many people say time and time again on these forums)

    Ok maybe it is ezer to fuck it up, but my plans wear to get a idea of what thay should look like and try to reproduce what i saw. I under stand that it might not work, But if it dose then ill be up one on all you people that say it wont work.

    If it don't work then owell.

     

    Yeah its not easy. You got to start somewhere though, and that book has a wealth of knowledge. It doesn't tell you what to do on a banshee engine. It will tell you what effects what, and how to calculate what to do though. It will also give duration tables and explain how a 2 stroke pipe works.

    I do plan on buying this book and like you said "You got to start somewhere though"

     

     

    So thanks for the pics dinner, Now i need some more pleas.

    i would like to do the same thing as you. but good luck on anyone giving you specs on a particular port job. it seems to be top secret info to many.

     

    YA i was afraid it wood be like that :sad:

    there is plenty of info around on this topic.

     

    buy this book: 2 stroke performance tuning by graham bell

    I have heard of this book I guess I'm going to have to do that.
