Does any one here run the MSD ignition? http://www.msdpowersports.com/atv_yamahabanshee.html

To the top

OK, now on a motor like that what should the compression be? I was also looking at this one too. http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/rvs/826212823.html

Not sure I tried to search google and I found some bikes that had 410 kits but it never said who made it.

Ok, so if I go check thi thing out what types of problems should I be looking for?

HAHAHA thats what I was thinking.

Yeah I wanted to buy a stock bike but I was thinking that money is a bit tight now and if I can get something with a few mods I will be better off as long as it's not a hack job. What all should I look for?

I was wondering if you guys could tell me what you would offer this guy for his shee? http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/mcy/827705188.html

Ok so how about the non cub strokers? Would one of those be good for other riding other than dunes or drag?

I see people talking about this and I see it on sites like trinity racing, so what exactly is the difference between say the trinity 421 Cheetah Engine Kit and the 421 cheetah cub engine kit?

Ok so how big can you go without loosing to much top end? I mean I dont want to lose so much rpm that I am stuck at 65 mph you know.

I was talking to a friend that has a shee and I never knew that his was stroked until the other day. He rebuilds his about ever other year. I was wondering how reliable are these motors. I see trinity has kits up to something like 610cc. How would a kit like that affect the longevity of the block itself? Also how much do the strokers affect the top end performance of the bike? I don't want to go 610cc but I was thinking of maybe going 421cc or 485cc

Thanks I was thinking about having the aggressive trail port done. I have not done that mod yet. Just got the bike actually. Also what pipes would be good. I have a friend that has a shee with fmf pipes and another that has toomey pipes. Would the toomey T6 be good? I heard that they don't like port work and to get either the fmf or the toomey T5.

I have a stock shee and I am new to 2 strokes except for an old 80cc bike I had as a kid. I ride trails and open field alot. I was thinking about having some porting done by herr juggs. I was wondering what port ob I should go with. I want maximum power but I don't want to shift the power up so high into the rpm range that it becomes unusable. Also What other engine work should I consider doing? Different carb setup, reeds,etc. would it be a good Idea to stroke my shee? I like the idea of being able to use high rpms but the idea of extra torque is nice. I don't really do a lot of hill climbing and I never ride dunes. So what are your suggestions? Thanks.

ok thats what I really want, the ability to change my setup for different riding. I men I may ride trails most of the time but why limit myself to just that.

I live in North West PA, a small town called Oi City.

I live in PA so trail riding is going to be about 95% of my riding. I like to hit up some jumps too, nothing crazy but I just want to make sure I have a suspension that can handle it.

well I was thinking about using fox evols as I saw on here that you can use an a-arm setup from a raptor either that or this setup http://janssenmotorsports.com/product_info...2772edb599a344f

Ok thanks, so I assume then that you would want a certain setup for a certain kind of riding like for dunes. How do you know what control arms to buy?

I always see numbers for things like control arms like +2 +1 etc what do they mean and how do you choose what combination you want/need?

Ok thanks I was not sure if they changed the gearing from say like 1999 to 2001 etc.

I don't know about on plastics but if they are clear coated like a car then I would use P21s wax and Klasse paint sealer both can be found here http://www.autopia-carcare.com/

Hello everyone I am new here. I am in the market for my first Banshee. I was wondering if there were and advantages to a certain year versus another or any year model I should stay away from etc. Thanks in advance.
