hey guys hows it going. so this guy / or girl wants to trade a honda prelude with h22a swap for a 03 shee done up and one of my boats. do any of you guys have this car is it any good any problems ( im more of a truck guy but with gas prices going up i might go for this car) when and if they send picts ill let you know but on the hole are theses cars any good ??

now hes saying he just had the intake cleaned up a bit ? so ball parking it how much hp would he be pushing ?

ya but for a stock crank just pretty much be bolted the cub in the cub right out of the box cant be pushing 100 hp ? can it ? and it has a trail port not a full drag ?

alright theres a kid that has another banshee around here and he claims that his banshee ( a 392 cub full drag port and 34mm carbs stock crank) is pumping out 70 hp and he says he can get over 100 hp out of that engine .,. is this bull $hit or is this true . i called bull on this kid can any one back him up or is he all smoke and mirrors ?

does any one know if a set of asr a-arms plus 2 up 1. will work on a yfz 450 ? and if not how much do you think i could get for them ? and could some one list the price roughly for these other items (banshee) trinity pipes dura blue axle +2-2 asr a arms +2 up 1 thanks so much -scott

im going to be doing both kinds of riding competitively flat track and oval. and i have some tight wood trails around here so the 450 would be the best bet. and ya i really dont want to get rid of the shee cause they haul ass on the top end but for cost wise a 450 is good choice. and ya i would never get a 300 ex i had a 400 and got sold to buy the shee.

the mods im running on it asr plus 2 up 1 a arms . dura blue x 33 axle lowering kit . twist throttle. nerfs. pod filters. trinity pipes.. but for what im racing and wanting to race i think the 450 will be better cause around here atv racing is starting to dye and not to many racers are comming out so i think im going to let my good old shee go and look for a 450

ok guys hears the deal. i race flat track the 1/4 and 1/2 mile track. should i keep the shee dump another 2000 on a engine kit from dasa with power valves or sell the shee and go yfz 450. i can prob get my shee sold for 4500-5000. and go for a yfz . cause i do more or less flat track. and i want to try and do mx and some trails. so what should i do guys and im looking for honest non bias reply and this is going to be the last or season last year i ride befor i go off to university...

hey buddy if you still thinking of doing flat track i would suggest going with body armor instead of one of thoes small plastic chest protectors. i have the 661 and i dont feel save with out it on the track at thoes speeds

this is just my 2 cents but i dont think it would be the oil. i only run r 50 and never have any problems with anything .. but still just my 2 cents

not to steal HDyfz450 post but i see alot of flat tracker are running -2 swing arms does this really make a difference or can some body explain this ?

ok what size domes should i get im getting my jugs ported and he says i should run about 150-160 pis 246-260 feet above sea level so what size domes would be a good start ?

sick that saves some time but is it harder to do with out taking it out of the frame or no ? and clymers can you get that manual anywhere ?

ok im new to banshee's only had mine for 8 months. and have never redone the top end.. ok can someone list all the steps and tricks to get the engine out and get the jugs off .. and if anyone knows some short cuts to do this please say and if you have some pictures of how to do it. this is the first time i have taken this engine out of the frame and the first time i have opened this engine up.. thanks guys -scott

hey adam "canadarider" where did you get your sway bar from and how much did that run you >?

even with a arms suspension and sway bar you will have a really good machine that handles the flat track but just my 2 cents

the basic set up is all your really need for a flat track style race ( oval ) is + 2 up 1 arms. axle. sway bar. good set of flat track tires ( Hoosiers) or anything else. ( i run with lowering kits (crj) front and rear and slam it to the ground ( i dont have a sway bar on it )) and with these basic mods you should have a half descent bike on your hands.

maybe on the strip but in a 1/2 an 1/4 mile oval the ltr destroyed a 421 cub ( but then again it doesnt matter how much you have done to your bike .. it all depends on the rider.. ) but eah just my two cents ...

good to hear buddy .. im glad you got it figured out .. there sweet a arms once you got them dialed in but it takes some tweaking to get them going good..

could you give me a rough price on what it costs to port a set of cylinders im not worried about turn around time i got all winter so im more or less looking for the best price and a good name to back it up with..?

no MJ at my local 1/4 mile oval track .. i know he has the basic mods on the 450 but thats all he tells me but all i know is that thing rips $hit on the track .. if you dont think it could, you should come out for your self and be beside it on the line ...

i have only seen one ltr 450 on the track beside me once . and it blew my doors off. but i got an 03 with pipes and K&N pods. ( only engine mods) and those pull hard another member banshee04 i think has a 421 cub in his shee and he got smoked. ya the ltrs are super quick bike .. from what i have seen i dont think you will win. just my 2 cents but if you do race hope he misses a gear or has a really bad take off .

heres my 03 shee

im going to be doing more or less flat track oval 1/4 and 1/2 mile tracks . with a the odd drag race in there.

so what kind of pait/ powder coat do you use ?
