I keep getting emails from people but no return addresses. PLEASE EMAIL ME DIRECT AT... [email protected] or post your email address here!

Do a search... this was discussed extensively not more than a week or 2 ago.

I love my 2:1 and found a significant increas over the stock filter/ box setup. I have had no worries about water or mud either.

To check the screens, you take out the 2 phillips screws that hold the valve in to the tank and the whole works {including the gas} will drop out in your hand. Remove the screens and install a clear in-line filter. This way you'll know when it's starving for gas. I'd still check the flywheel and timing plate. It's gonna be something so obvious that even a retard could figure it out. Just not us retards yet. Unless you just don't know what you're doing

I'm going to say stator or flywheel or timing plate. The only thing that hasn't been swapped out is the timing plate and the flywheel. Make sure the rivets in the flywheel are tight, the magnets are not loose, the key and key ways are in good condition and the timing plate is not loose. Try adjusting the timing a little if your plate is modified. You also need to make sure you're getting gas from the gas tank. Pull thetank valve and make sure the screens are clean inside the tank.

Wasn't worth saying twice

You used the wrong formula. Make sure it is NOT the "cold oven" formula. It doesn't work at all. The right stuff will take the gold right off {along with your skin if you don't wear gloves } And DON'T get it on the paint!!!

I'm pretty sure you won't have a problem. If my gas won't burn in the banshe, I mix it about 50/50 with new gas and burn it in the mower. I never add stabil to my tank and my banshee always runs great in the spring.

I'd do it. Heck you could spend $50 on bungee cords and tarps in one season if it's windy BTW where do you work that you can get one for $50?

Here's the rear view... I want $850 with the engine and $700 without. I will ship but I'll have to charge for crating and you need to figure a minimum of $300 to ship. I am willing to do a full or partial trade up or down. I am looking for... a round house carrier with tapered bearings, stainless pipes {Trinity} or an enduro type on/off road bike that can be licensed for the street. Preferrably Yamaha. I live near the Wisconsin/ Illinois border close to Lake Michigan. Any questions... EMAIL ME, DO NOT PM ME!!! [email protected]

I have an 87 banshee with a blown motor the engine was blown when I bought it. The engine is blown to bits and is probably only good for the tranny. One rod came out the top and took out the right jug and case and the rest of the crank took out the bottom. The J arms are bent but the lower A arms are OK. It comes with everything except... The electronics, the front hubs/brakes/spindles, rear disc, tires and rims. The plastic is cracked and the seat is ripped. The pics attached {I hope} show it the way I bought it. It does not have the grab bar, the nerfs, or the pipes. I can't remember all the stuff that's on or off of it right now. If you want more or less of it, then EMAIL ME!!! I HATE PM'S!!!

email me with what you want in trade... [email protected]

If you're still in vocational, the best thing to do is build relationships!!! My welding instructor was the greates guy. As it turns out, any time I need any equipment like welding stuff or anything else for that matter, all I have to do is ask or go by his house. The guy has everything!!! I wanted to buy a hige TIG welder and all that stuff when I was in school but now I'm glad I didn't. 20 years later the used stuff I would have bought would have been 30 years old by now and would be so outdated, it wouldn't be worth anything. Plus I would have spent tons of money storing it and moving it and all that stuff. And that's only a welder. Machine tools require much more upkeep and soooo much more tooling. Even scrap carbide milling bits are worth alot of money. I can't image what they cost new. So a couple cases of beer or a pizza or a box of donuts goes a long way when you want something done.

I've got one with a blown engine

For you other guys that emailed me... I deleted the messages email me again [email protected]

Send me an email [email protected] sounds like it's got my name on it

Drain the carb, put in new gas, check your plug and wire, and do a compression check. They have a TORS system too so make sure your parking brake lever is all the way back.

Dirt clod and Darrin Parker... your kickers will go out today To date, I have not received any other kickers. With these guys, I pretty much ran out of supplies. I've already commited to do some that I haven't gotten yet, but other than those few, I won't be able to do any more in the near future. Please let me know how these work in the long run. Thanks

I've got one. Email me for pics and details. It's an 87 with a blown motor.

I still think there would be a slight advantage to Ron's flywheel mod just because ot's lighter but both should work great for you.

Yeah... those look like Ben's jetting questions.

Reading that story on Lycos and seeing this pic of a guy who would purposely saw his penis in half has given me nightmares for days. You have to wonder what these people's parents were like? It can only be described as obscene.

I heard putting your stockers in boiling water for a few minutes will work

That is the most disturbing image I have ever seen. I have literally been kept awake at night because of it. The pervert that would purposely mutilate himself like that is obviously insane. I strongly suggest that the link be removed.

Wheat... as much as I respect you as a person and you're wealth of knowledge, I have to disagree on some points here... 1- Those who don't vote have the ultimate authority to voice their opinion on the president or anyone else who is in office because they made the choice not to choose one idiot over another. The fact of the matter is the person in office is the person you have to live with. If you vote for the guy who didn't get in, your vote meant nothing and if you vote for the idiot in office, you are responsible yourself for his blunders. As someone who doesn't vote, I have the ability to critisize the blunders of the person in office since I did not vote for him and at the same time can point out that the guy who didn't make the grade to get into office wasn't worth voting for. 2- The president does steer the country. So to draw an analogy, who do you blame for a traffic accident? The idiot behind the wheel or the people who made the laws that try to regulate drivers? We in the ATV sport have always held the driver responsible for the accident. UNLESS they were obviously too inexperienced or too stupid to be in the driver's seat to begin with. In that case you blame the other idiot who thought they could handle it. 3- I don't support anyone who makes stupid decisions. And I hope no-one supports me when I make 'em. As far as I can tell, Bush and his predecessors have all made blatant errors. Some more than others but blatant none the less. So far I have yet to see 1 of these presidents reverse the errors of the previous and if they did, they can only do that for the few years they are in office. So in effect the system gets worse instead of better because 1 person cannot reverse all of the previous mistakes and usually spends most of his time covering up his own. So as far as I can tell a mistake is a mistake and wrong is wrong and it doesn't matter to me if your in Washington or Bhagdad or England or Cuba, you should be called on it. And punching a hole in a card once every 4 years is not what I would call being "called on it". I would also say to micorps1 that if my assumption is correct, that you are the person in the picture with your family. I can honestly say that I have the deepest respect for someone who will put themsleves in the face of danger for the protection of others. This is the highest form of UNselfishness a person can provide. I firmly believe that every person makes a life or death decision that effects them during their lives. I also believe that each person should have every detail of that risk at their disposal before making that decision. Personally I could not put my life or the lives of those that rely on me in danger based on a threat. And I don't think anyone else should either. The battles of the past that have cost millions of lives have become forgotten history. When I visited the Vietnam memorial in DC and stood at the tomb of the unknown soldier and saw the endless rows of white stones at the national cemetary and realized that these are just a small fraction of the lives cut short by war, and when I listened to my Great Uncle tell about his best friend who died when their ship was sunk by a Japanese suicide pilot and how even when he was 80 years old he could never forget pulling his friends torn body, with his guts strung out, from the ocean. How my neighbors and other friends were injured and mentally and physically crippled in Viet Nam. And all the guys I met when I worked at the VA Hospital who couldn't sleep and were insane from combat 20 yrs after they left the jungle and all the marriages that fell apart and all the kids with no dad's. And after all of that sacrifice we have what? Cool electronics from Japan, cheap products made in Korea, low priced oil from the middle east. Sorry man, LIFE is worth more to me than that.
