old87shee

anyone?

^ DIBS^

my neighbor ordered a stator from this guy, he got a 100 watt stator, new CDI, and new bulbs, with a puller, for 200 bucks, and hes been running the shit out of his banshee for almost a year now, he rides in snow, rain, sleet, he dont care, so hes probably got about 150 hours of riding out of his stator so far, and no problems, plus the guy is pretty cheap just my two cents...

was also thinking of putting a cool head on, any recommendations on dome size?

damn

i will get some posted as soon as i can, im at work at the moment

well in the summer when i do most of my riding, its usually around 95 or so, im nto really interested in winter riding, lol thats what sleds are for

Ok so i decided I'm going to do a mild upgrade to this thing, I'm thinking T-5's, V-3's, and then a whole bunch of billet stuff, if i go with the pipes, should i just hold off on changing my jets right now? I'm sure I will have to change them again when i put the pipes on....... also any other simple mods you guys think would help my performance, let me know

yeh its smoking for sure when i really get on it, but barely smokes at all before that, so if im at a 250, what should i step down to?

ok so i called the service shop and talked to the tech that worked on it last, he put 250 mains in it, because thats what the book called for at our elevation, we are at 4860 ft, and its cold as all hell right now, but it ran like this when it was 90 outside too, so yeh, ok id rather not have to put the stock box back on, but if i have to then ill order another one from egay, so if anyone know what jets i should run with pods at 4800 ft, maybe that would help? hell i don't know, im about ready to just tear the damn thing apart and start over lol

nevermind i found it lol, and the problem ( while in gear and riding it ) is definately from 3/4 to full throttle, i have no surging or lost power anywhere else, and it idles perfectly, usually takes a few kicks to start, when its cold, but starts first kick when its warm out

lol yeh, sorry i have no idea what a WOT test is, i looked but couldnt find it in the forum either

they have the usual blackness to them like most two strokes, and are usually wet, not soaking, but moist

moving soon, and need to sell this thing its a 2002 cr 125, had a recent top end job done to it, has about 15 hours on the rebuild, it comes with two sets of plastics, all black, and all stock, has fmf fatty pipe with power core 2 silencer, and i also have the stock pipe as well, and it also has tag low bend bars, the bike is in pretty good shape, only been down once since the new plastics, and run like a bat out of hell, well for a 125 it does. looking to get 2200 obo for it. the bike is located in farmington new mexico, but i can deliver within 200 miles, for a flat rate of 75 bucks any questions, please pm me here or email me at [email protected]

*bump* any ideas guys?

if youve still got em in a week, ill take em, i get paid next thursday

shoot me an email with pics to [email protected]

yeh i wish my shop looked like that

i checked the slides, theyre in the right carbs, any other ideas lol

also, i forgot to mention, that the last time we took it to the dunes, it over heated the pipes and melted the little rubber grommets that connect the headers to the mid pipe and the ones between the silencers and the mid pipe....which makes me wonder if the exhaust is carboned up, i haven't had a real chance to look at it since this happened, with work and all, its kinda hard to dig into things. I also spoke with Josh, the guy i got the bike from today, and he was telling me that the bike ran exactly like that, before we took it to the shop and they changed out the jets, i don't know if this helps any at all, but figured i might want to throw all this in there

still for sale? and do they come with silencers?

its definately running rich, the guy told me that because of the pods, it will never run right, im calling B.S., i know plenty of people with pods on their banshees and they run just fine. but yeh its running rich as hell, i can tell that just by the thick smoke while riding it, and im mixing it 32:1

yeh the T.O.R.S. is still installed

as far as mods, the only things i know he did to it, was install the over rev cdi box, and a new stator, with adjustable timing plate, and a boost bottle. He had to rebuild the top end, due to the fact that the shop he took it to, said it needed it and a lot of other things, turned out the bore was perfectly fine and there wasnt even any wear marks on his stock pistons, however it now has some kind of ceramic coated pistons in it. as far as jets, i have no idea, im running stock carbs, and my elevation in Grand Junction is about 4800 ft. so whatever jets you need for a stock set up at that elevation?

ok so i picked up this old 87 from a friend of mine, figured for a couple hundred bucks, what the hell.. Well the thing ran when i got it, but was kinda sketchy on top end, but it had been sitting for a while, so i just figured the carbs needs cleaning and the gas needed to be flushed out and done away with. Well i flushed the fuel system, cleaned the carbs, drained the tank and all that, new plugs, etc etc and now it will fire up, idle fine, but on top end it still spits and spudders. I have owned 2 strokes before, and the only think i can think of, is maybe the pipes are carboned up? He had pulled the stock air box off and replaced it with the pods and outerwares, i took the thing to the shop and they said that is what my problem is, because we are still running stock pipes, and it wont run right with pods on there. I had them go ahead and check complression, which was 125 psi on both cylinders, and had them re-jet it for elevation. Any ideas?
