  1. Don't think thats legal
  2. That was on new plugs. I just didn't know if the carbs would flow enough cfm and fuel. I know I'm not rich. You think A bigger main may help?
  3. I recently purchased a banshee with a stage IV trinity set up. It has T5 pipes, ported cylinders, cases and 17cc dome head. It produces 175 psi of compression. Stock cyc but not stock bore and no airbox. The problem is when in 6th gear on the big end it seems to just fall off. Not bad but I do notice it surging. It pulls all the gears like a beast till you get to the last bit of sixth. I mean its still pulling but you can feel a surge. It has dtock carbs with 350 mains, the float level is good. Do I need a bigger carb maybe. Seems to just run out of gas. I even thought of putting a high flow petcock in. ANYONE got any sugestions? Do I need to trash stock carbs?
  4. You know I didn't even pay attention to the gears. So as far as an overide you would still have to let off the gas or none at all?
  5. Not to jus keep bugging you but our trails are back roads. No woods riding No mud. What exactly does an overide transmission do or how is it set up? Thanks for the paticients.
  6. would it be ok for just trail riding? I mean if I can live with it? The trans that is.
  7. It did have sleves. What is an override trans? I just have never experienced one as hard to shift with engine off but yet so smooth just by bliping the throttle and no clutch. I mean as soon as you hit the gas you are shifting as fast as you can and it pulls hard without having to scream it. I haven't looked at the clutch side yet but plan to do so. I guess I am behind time as I work on more 4X4's and the other utility types. I have another banshee with T5's stock bore, aftermarket reeds and it is no where close. Like compare a corvett to a bicycle. Dunno but thanks for yall's help. OH YEA do yall think 170psi kinda high for pump gas? I know jetting and timing come in to play but ????? AND what is backloading? i ASSuME it is the pressure from like heel to toe? What will it cause and do i need to just put the tranny back stock?
  8. how hard is it to repack a set of toomey t5 silencers? How do you know when you have enough packing in them?
  9. I recently purchased a 1999 banshee for 600.00. It was a newspaper listing ad. I went to look at it thinking it was just a run ot the mill banshee with a set of pipes. Once I got there I saw trinity IV carved in the jugs. I went ahead and bought it. (almost forgot the guy said it was blown up) I got it home and started taking it apart and found it to have a trinity stage IV head also. I noticed the cases were new (no serial number) and it as an adjustable stator plate. I took the cylinders off and noticed they were ported extensively also they measure 70 mm. I saw "hot rod" wrote on the connecting rods and even the cases were ported. It has trinity stage IV wrote on it also. To make a long story short it had a broken piston skirt. NO damage to the cylinders. I installed new pistons and rings and cleaned everthing real good. Once together I checked the compression and cold it is 175. I cranked it up and notices someone has took the packing out of the T5 toomeys (or it atleast sounds like it). I warmed it up and took it down the road and WOW does this thing go. I have owned several banshees with just your normal bolt ons but none like this. My 450r will not even come close. I guess my main question is what is a trinity stage IV engine. The whole engine is apparently buitl by them. Also I have never had a banshee that shifted like this. It shifts better without the clutch by far than with it when uner hard acceleration. With engine off it is near impossiable to shift. Am I having trans trouble? Sorry if I rambled but I really do not know what I have bought. I have an ATV repair business but it is mainly utility and bolt ons. Nothing like this. Please anyone with knowledge please enlighten me. NO SA's PLEASE
