I recently got myself a 96 banshee and now that the weather is cold, the low compression is killing my foot trying to get her started. Ive come to grips with the fact that i need to rebuild the top end, what all do i need? I dont want to go crazy and i have a tight budget, where do i start and how much is it going to cost me? It currently has a stock bore and the only mod to speak of is an old DG exhaust that was on it when i bought it.

could I get a closer pic of those ice tires at the bottom? and how much?

nice simple design, whats up with the little nipple above the O-ring??

i have been hitting the spindle, but not sideways, i will try that. thanks

I just bought my banshee, and it was sitting for quite some time. I started pulling apart the front end for some much needed cleaning/painting and replacements, but 5 of the 6 ball joint/tie rod studs are stuck. Ive tried rubber mallets, steel hammer (not smart, messed some threads up), tons of wd40, heat, and they still wont budge! any secrets you guys could share?
