hi everyone , ive just bought a 2002 yamaha banshee and i rode 4 strokes since 8 years , my friend just tell me to try two stokes and i love the banshee,
i dont really know how they work perfectly , since i had my banshee i wanted to build a xc bike , but i dont really know what to put to build a bike that will be reliable and fun
to ride for xc and small mx track
please give some advise
thank you !

Well Rob racing the Xc and Mx tracks are two diff things Bro i Race Harescrambles AA pro class you can take a look at my bike if u want the only thing i have missin on my Banshee is the shocks Sold the Fox shocks I like them betta then all them other ones out there !! Not racing the Banshee no more But still racing im back on the Mx got the Kawee 250f 2009 but lets talk about XC you dont want a longer Swing ARM ! and going with them plus 1 and 2's A ARM IS nice but u gotta watch out for them Bike rocks Get ready to SPend BIG BUCKS on the suspension lol no joke there , Runing Tire's I see a lot of Maxx's and Hole shots I run the TURFF TAMER there nice and light use them when its dry out and when wet i run FIRRELIES when its Muddy i have a set of BED locks but i stoped useing them to much weight i run the light WHeels insteed also if your NEw to this get the 6 pl tires but again i dont use them im runing 4 ply i have not gotten a Flat at all i dont get why some guys get flat LOL dont know what there DOIng but I dont have that Problem , Also gas tank is the biggest They do have the 5 gal race tank that will last u 2 hour race just keep the bike no more then 20 over because its not a mx track its a hare scramble track FUCK THEM FMF pipes lol paul tuner are NICE also RUn that ICE COLD anti Frezz thats a plus and get a good clutch that will take a beat Down on the power shifting Invest in the Terry Cable Throttle System is a plus gives u a Twist and a thumb all in ONE !! thats about 156 bucks and U wanna RUN " BIG TIRES YOU NEED AS MUCH GROUND CLEARENCE AS U CAN GET !! 22s 23s tall and wide 10 inch wide RIM also get a 5 inch wide from for the Front i FInd that better then the 6 ich wide rim turns better and i like the way it turns , keep the stuck size sproclet on there u go bigger its gonna get in the way , Aslo SKID Plates for the Frame and swing Arm !! and DEFF get a Case SAVER !!!!! if that chain comes off your gonna Jam it hard in the motor so DEFF get one of those !!! your wanna Run a soft suspenion so you go faster through the Ruff parts basic you want this bike to RIDE like a Caddy in the Woods but Have Balls like a hot rod to get u up them hills and mud holes and WINNing the HOLE SHOT !! I shit you know with the power i got in my Banshee and how it was set up I WON every HOLE SHot at my Races I would put it in second Gear and SOME times 3 rd and shee had the power to RIP out of that HOLE when them guys started to pull of them line i already had a BIKE lead ON them and by the First Turn it was 6 bikes ahead , Now not saying I WON every race but i did take 1 st 2 nd and 3 rd at times , BUT IF u need more HELP on settin this thing up and tips on Racing in them Hare Scrambles LET ME KNOW
