hey im not sure about where u could race in montana, the only thing id say is try to search for places on the net....but as far as setups go for a xc banshee....u are gonna want some low end pipes, i have fmf gnarlies, they work great, some people dont like them, but i love them, i can keep up with a 450 all day on the trails.... another thing is u want some good tires....we are talkin like kenda klaws or gncc tires. depending on how tight the course is u might wanna keep ur aarms the stock length, mine are 2 plus 1 but u definatly will want a set of nice adjustable shocks. i have elkas , but if u are short on cash, go to craigslist or on here, and find someone with yfz450 shocks, they also work well, i had those the first few harescrambles i raced in. once u get out there and race a few times, then u can maybe do more mods to your bike, but keep it simple for now, ur gonna need alot of endurance to race a harescramble. so like i said, get ur self some low end pipes, then some better suspension, after u got those 2 things and u have some money left over, go for the tires.

ok that makes sense, but after doing all of that how would i go about converting it, what are the steps? do they sell kits? any good websites?

hello everyone, i just picked up another 2003 banshee, this one is stock and im looking to do some drag racing with it....i want to convert to alcohol, can i do that on a stock motor or will i have to work my way up to that.....all advice welcome thanks!

i have an 03 banshee with fmf fatties and pro flow adapter with k&n filter and a boost bottle...where do u think i should start my jetting at?

hey im new to south carolina, is there any places in south carolina near hilton head where i can race XC or MX?

hey i have a 2003 yamaha banshee and a 2001 yamaha raptor, ive never registered my quads before in the past, but i need to register these ones, whats the difference betweeen a red and green sticker, whats better and more versitile

hey im just wondering some opinions on what ratio to run,i have boxes of yamahalube and castrol that my buddy gave me for free so thats what ill be using till its gone. ive heard 25:1 40:1.....gimme some suggestions please. thanks

hey thanks for all of the advise guys, ill let you know what happens

ill be racing XC, thanks alot guys i appreciate all the help

ok, so should i keep my stock a arms for now, a lot of people are tellin me to get extended a arms????i can get the shocks for 100 bucks, but i dont know if its worth it, id rather just get some elkas or something. another thing, do i want piggyback or remote??? i have about 1000 to spend right now, and once i get back from iraq i might have a little more. i definatly want to improve my suspension and maybe a steering stabilizer and some there mods to get rid of some of the wicked arm pump im gonna have. what do u think i should do with.....lets say 1500 dollars. after that ill just add stuff as money comes in. thanks

alright sounds good peter.....would yfz 450 shocks do me any good for the time being, my buddy has an extra set of them for his 450? how much better would my shee handle

im on a pretty tight budget right now, but i do understand where ur comin from it makes sense, so ill go with ur advise and get extended a arms and front shocks and maybe a swingarm...then go from there, any opinions on good parts??? do u think my fatty pipes will really do the job then? ive heard people doing gncc and mx like 916's and gnarlys????

hey thanks man i appreciate it

awesome thanks guys ill check into that, im guessing these are all MX tracks right, is there any kind of cross country events other than GNCC?

hey im going to be in south carolina for four years and im trying to find some tracks to race at, i know GNCC has the BIG BUCK event and there another one in north carolina, but thats all im finding, ive looked on the net, but i guess i dont know what to search for, can any one please help me out? do i have to join a league or anything? whats the deal. thanks.
