Welcome to HQ. If you've worked on your dirtbike, assuming it's a two stroke, there is really not much of difference. Banshee are simple to work on. When i stared to work on my banshee, i didn't have a clue about working on two strokes, haven't had a problem yet. Now about your future buy. What does it have done to it? How much compression we talking about, because that could determine if it will need a complete top end. 130 psi for sea level down to 100 psi for 5000 above sea level. If you can take the plug off,get a flash light, look down the cylinder for scaring. Or it can be the reed. New complete topend rebuild piston kit can cost 180, If you need to do cylinder repair that can cost 190-250 depanding on damage. If you get it post pics. Good luck

Hey loco what gildan line you talking about their sport shirts or t-shirts? That would make a difference in the size i wear.

What the fuck you talking about? What suspicious activity's?

what's that suppose to mean?

x2. If you have a run problem like skinindustries did you could always change the tip. Graffiti artist do all the time for different styles. You can order some from here http://artprimo.com/catalog/index.php or local hardware store might have them.

What does it matter what he already has? He asking cuz he is thinking of getting another banshee but it is a j arm.

Really. It looks pretty big from the pics, bigger then some of the other helmet cams. Pics of the setup.

You would think so, but from what i hear about trx450r tires there badass and one of the best tires to buy.

You hear that loco someone else loves those tires too. He's grinning from ear to ear. So how does your boy like his new holeshots, better or worse?

neither, get dmc. :thumbsup:

Not being a ass, Deffentaly the C-12. Imo, you should always run a fuel that has a higher octane number then needed. Ex: If you need 100, should run atleast 102, so you'll have some leeway. I know times are tough, belive me I know. If you go cheap on your fuel on a worked up engine and something goes BOOM you'll be kicking yourself in the ass. What i would do is look into running another brand of race fuel that is cheaper. I don't know what C-12 cost is in your neck of the woods but vp 110, same brand and similer to C-12, is around $10/gallon. So I run Torco 110 (7.50/gallon) or Trick 110 (8/gallon), thats because if one shop in town don't have one i go to another shop and get the other. Like you said no problem with the avgas, then i guees fuck it stick to what work.

i think it looks badass like that. i wouldn't change it, the black bedliner with the yellow gives it kick ass look. i like it alot thinking of doing mine red with the same black. :thumbsup:

I run my timing at +5, and oil/fuel 32:1. Some use 40:1 but better use good oil like Klotz or Maxima Castor 927 if your gonna run it at that ratio. break in is simple, make sure your jets are right. 5-10 mins of idle. 10-15 mins to cool. check the head bolts 5-10 mins of idle. 10-15 mins to cool. check the head bolts 15-20 minute of easy riding. cool down. check the head bolt then you could run it hard.

Dude i hate you. That black an yellow looks so badass. Thats a hell of a restoration. I hope to have mine done before the middle of may. Did you paint the plastics black or did you buy new ones?

That one thing that's crazy, and your comparing two different fuels with two different octane numbers. Comparing these two is like comparing apples and oranges. If you compared something like Motorsport 109 that has a 101 mon then I could see a good comparison just because the octane number are almost the same. C-12 has a 108 motor octane number and avgas has 100 mon. If your running with avgas and not having problems then C-12 would be pointless that would mean that any good fuel that has a 100 mon would work just fine. If your engine or anybody engine need a minimum of 108 mon then avgas would not cut it, no if's, and's, or, but's, about it.

I'm with you firehead. Now i know why some members get pissed about repeating shit over and over and dumb ass not having the fuckin commonsense to use the search. Fuck it already with these fuckin questions about avgas and race fuel, enough is enough. LIKE BEATING A DEAD HORSE.

wow that's crazy. vp c-12 mon( motor octane number) is 108 and avgas is 100 mon. i guess you didn't need to use c-12 in the first place.

you should thank me. jk. i had seen the SCAM ARTIST OF THE WEEK post and recognized one of the pics from the engine you bid on. so i emaild the az seller and told him if he was trying to pull a scam or what. he got back to me all pissed, he then seen what was going on and told me he was going to get a hold of ebay and put a stop to it and thanked me for giving him the heads up. you got lucky bro.

i hear ya, dude is a FUCKIN PIECE OF SHIT.

other stuff from him, here in az. same number on these 4 and the 7 mill on ebay 602-206-8666 http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/rvs/1090843004.html http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/cto/1090838201.html http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/rvs/1090834899.html http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/rvs/1090831259.html this is even weird as fuck. some of those parts are on a different ebay account but the bike is being sold all together. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/banshee-10-...A1%7C240%3A1318

i knew that fucken foot looked familiar. scroll down to the picks http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/yamaha-bans...A1%7C240%3A1318 same foot. http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/rvs/1085302499.html so what the fuck is he in az, or pa.

hahahahahaha. run the over flow tube right above the exhaust, so when it gets hot you'll see vapor.

but it will never end. just wait and see.

i have that same setup, i'm at +5, 35mm pwk 155 jet and it has good low but pulls hard mid to high. what's your elevation?

SWEET! that's in the perfect spot. guess i'm gonna have to steal your idea.
