  1. thats kinda what i intended to do, but i cant stand my shee sitting there ripped apart, so i hurried the process a bit, I also thought maybe if i let it dry, they might not fill in all the way if any was stuck in the tube so thats why i just sad screw it and let them settle, shook and tapped them to ty and get them as solid as possible and just let it be, dry in the middle or not... i dont think you need it dry really, jelly absorbs vibes too and thats a good idea vintage !!!, its really not that hard to fill them up though, im confident mine ar like 95% full and silicone doesnt shrink, so it will be fine until i break my bars and it oozes theough and clogs my radiator, lol...i think fat renthalls are kinda hard to break with a stock stem though, so i'll prob be alright..
  2. What ? if you can smoke the tires its not your clutch its prob just running like shit in the higher rpms because its too lean for the cooler weather or something else happened...havbe someone who knows what they are doing come check it out for you...ask around man, someone has to know someone near you...if your clutch was shot, i dont see how you could burn the tires off... Youre not that far from me dude, pm me and ill give you my number, or you have my email too...well figure it out...
  3. meat...i'm going to say you're right for now because i hate drama...I guess i'm going on a burn ride when i get up there to figure everything out...I've never seen people so sensitive about a pile of coal. Like when i first started climbing in h-town, there was like nobody there, now that the hills are beat theres people from all over the place riding there, it sucks...we did move around and find alot of new hills, make new hills and we were from freeland, to mcado, tamaqua, coaldale, ashland, centralia, shamokin trevorton, hell i bought like 6 trucks from troys auto sales in dornsife, my great grammy live right on 61 in shamokin when i was really little, but i still dont know the area well...one thing i know is i can climb. I'm not a moron, i have a 5 year old son who i want to watch grow up, so i'm not really out to prove anything, but i will come have fun and if anyone can climb something, i guarantee i can...well, theres some dirtbike climbs that are nearly imbossible just because of the vee at the top, but if its wide enough for 4 wheels, fuck it...
  4. thanks for all the kinds words fellow pennsylvanians !!!
  5. Damn 4-pokes are makin some torque these days, came a looooong way from warriors and 400exes, but i'm just going to say look at the size of the engines, 870cc ? really ? Drag an 870cc banshee on the bottle then...no chance in hell....end of story. I never raced a ds650, but I'm sure they rip, i rode one of those 8004x4 jobs with the big 3 and it was definately impressive for a noise maker, he was neck and neck with my 700xx, but my shee feels a hell of alot faster than my 700...
  6. Dudes bragging he loves these pipes and then leaving bad feedback ? thats fucked up bro... And MATT...thats hilarious....
  7. Dude, I dont know exactly what year it was...like my friends are like let's go ride tomorrow and i write it on the calendar to make sure i dont forget it and i make sure someones there to record it so i can talk shit to someone who moved 9 hours away to visit his family who i dont even know...Asshole huh...yeah, thats pretty much me...I'm sorry i didnt realize sooner how much beter you are than me and the rest of the boys from the greater hazleton are who climb the balls out of all those hills just because you happen to have a camera when you climb...how much shit have you personally done or seen happen with no camera...thanks for calling me names too...appreciate it and i'm looking forward to coming up myself.
  8. No shit...I'm not even saying anything else...fuck it, i'm not some little kid...
  9. x2 on the maintenance, go through your carbies... Ak what did i do wrong on mine ? This is the first banshee I've ever had that I dont need to choke to start, i shit you not, the jetting is just about perfect, floats are new, levels are good, carbs are synced, etc...
  10. Ok sos, as i sez to youz guys yesterday, i went over to lowe's and got myself some 100% silicone caulking (man that stuff smells AWESOME) And i filled my renthals. Iactually let the silicone and the bars set in the sun, put the sniper barrle on my WD-40 ans shot some in ther, figured it may slide in and fill better warm and lubricated, but who knows, I just put duct tape over one end and used a wood clamp to secure them standing on end to the corner of my parts washer cart. I went outside, got the caulking, threw it in the gun, clipped the tip and filled it slowly with a few full pumps, watched it go down, did it again, it seemed to settle pretty good, so i stuck a plastic bar end in there, flipped em, took the tape off and filled them and let it settle, i bought 2 tubes of dap 100% silicone, but it only took one and i'm pretty satisfied that thier pretty solidly filled, I waited about 2 hours for them to dry a little and just stuck them back on.... I rode a little bit today and yeah...i havent went crazy for hours or anything yet, but just going down the road and for a short trail ride and back it feels alot more solid... I RECCOMEND IT, ITS DEFINATELY NOT SOMETHING YOUR GOING TO HATE OR THAT WILL MAKE YOUR BIKE WORSE AND A FEW OUNCES IS NOT ENOUGH WEIGHT TO DO ANYTHING AT ALL AS FAR AS HANDLING OR E.T. AND IMO SOMETHING THAT IS CHEAP AND HIGHLY EFFECTIVE. THANKS SAVAGE !!!
  11. Thanks for taking the time to explain the process better AK, i was in a hurry at the time... I've used RTV on stuff from time to time as well, just make sure you clean all the old gasket material off and clean it with alcohol or aceton or mineral spitits or something, read the directions carefully, everyone just smooshes all the RTV out of the joint all the time, you need to run yourslef a nice thin bead as even as possible int the CENTER of the gasket surface and circle around all the bolt holes...put it on carefully not to disturb the bead and only tighten the cover retaining screws finger tight, wait about an hour for it to start setting up and crank em down in a criss-cross pattern...if any squishes out, you can wait a day or so for it to comletely dry and cut it of with a razor blade so it looks nice and tidy. I prefer gaskets, but i've turned bikes and atvs on thier sides so the oil is away from the cover and swapped out water pumps and clutch and kicker components with no problems...and most definately use the correct size screwdriver, nothing sucks worse than a stripped screw, if you dont have one, an impact driver is only like 15 bucks and the best investment you can make for working on fine thread screws in aluminum that are subject to temperature and weather, one whack and they always break loose, i use mine on screws that are completely rounded out, BAM!!! and they spin, its pretty much a miracle tool... Good luck man...the billet impeller/new seal and bearing ARE worth it and i agree with the engine ice coolant, shit works WONDERS !!!, I had a temp guage on 2 different shees and both times i filled with engine ice, lowered the operating temp about 10 degrees or more, thats a huge difference for just changing coolant...
  12. yep, get yourself some new oil and a gasket, you will get different opinions, but i highly reccomend belray gearsaver for your crank case, you will also need a clutch cover gasket. here's a link to the service manual https://docs.google.com/fileview?id=0B0CQb1pV1ycgMDQ3NjQ4ZTUtMjRlMC00Y2UwLTlkNzctNGY4ZGIxYjZhMDI1&hl=en
  13. I have 2 pictures of me climbing EVER in all the shit i climbed man, i have one of me climbing the mile with a cowboy hat on and another of me at the top of big tit in crystal ridge coming over the top with bald as mus sharks, haha, i had to hang off the back of the thing with zero air pressure that day, i ripped a sidewall on my paddles and changed out quick so i could still ride...sorry i dont take a camera riding with me, i never even posted shit on youtube or anything till recently just for the fuck of it, i never joined here before either, not sure why, i was always working alot, i'm laid off now so i have time for it i guess...i'll find the 2 pictures i have and ill take pictures of them, or scan them and upload them ok...
  14. Holy fuck you little girls are quick to jump someones shit...you ever notice the 6 is next to the 9, i fuckered up ok, i guess my buddy never flipped his 421 making a new climb at mile hill either...he was prob up there not long ago...he had a black and monster energy kfx450r with an axle and houser arms that he just sold a few months ago...i climb and i have friends that climb, i dont live there but we trailered up there a zillion times, i prob met you guys before, dont break my balls, you sound like these guys from north carolina that tell me i'll never make thier little hills and then they think i'm nuts when i roll up them in 2nd like nothing...my shee needs about 2 grand worth of work to be big hill worthy, but in the spring, il be up there, stock ported jugs, stock swinger extended 4" and paddles or vampires or something climbing everything you guys are and trying new hills, i grew up in harwood mines outside of hazleton, i learned how to ride in the silts when i was 5 on a benelli 50, i have been out riding every weekend since, the peak, hell i used to climb the peak when it actually took skill, when i was a kid my dad used to take me out and watch dune buggies climb every weelend, now anyone who has balls can climb it because WE made a climb about every 5 feet around the whole hill and now its BEAT, stockton was pretty decent, tit mountain, poosas, thousand foot drop, about 100 other random pits and banks in h-town,sorry if you think youre the only ones in the world, but you're not...that area all along 61 has amazing and very dangerous hills, but thats what I do too...nice try at the bullshit thing tho, if i was full of shit, i might feel bad, now i'm just more motivated to get up there and get some good PA hydro and get my pizza and climb on, i fucking miss good italian food and pieroghi like you wouldnt believe, my mom just got back from a visit there and brought me farmers tea and a box of senapes pizza, i sat down and ate the whole shit in like 5 minutes...i even missed the fair this year, lol...like thats a bummer, you guys are good, but i can climb too, you'll see... i think the shit you smell might be still in the air from that guy on the craptor...or is that your upper lip from all the shit you talk because i push a wrong button on a forum, i posted the wrong link on a forum and i typod a bunch of shit in the shoutbox the other day too, OMG...who gives a fuck, really...
  15. I climbed a few hills with 4-pokes and it really scares me raptors blow for climbing, 450rs are way better because of the power to wieght ratio and lower stance i think, but they still dont scream like a shee, if they bog and you have to downshift or slip the clutch, they get too much traction or not enough , i dunno, i feel alot fuckin safer on a shee, once your pinned and have momentum, not much is slowing you down as long as you keep your front to back wieght balanced with enough of your ass down to keep the rear tires planted and the front ones from coming over your head. Most of those hills are beat, so i like seeing you guys making new hills for when i come up to ride and applaud you because i am a peensylvania native for 27 years and i know the real deal, nothing inthe world is like climbing coal. The hard ones your front tires barely spin going up or they touch and go, people who never did it dont understand about the balancing act and feeling your momentum so you can turn around before you do what this knuckehead did...also i see people climbing standing on the pegs, thatsa good way to get shot off theside of a bank real easy too...ah whatever, guess ya gotta learn like this dope did, i flipped a few way back in the day...
  16. I am also a fan of the "classic" banshee front ened, but i remember when they came out with these plastics i wanted a set just to be different. They do look puke pnk in the garage, but once its all together it will be cool. get rid of those foglights for some better looking ones and i bet that will improve it alot too...
  17. yeah, ive been watching ebay and craiglist for years and this pretty much tops everything i've seen...
  18. Just make sure you swap him tierods too...ig hes a banshee dumbass, be careful to inpect it all really good and ask people sho have done the swap, ive heard good and bad things, i thinkk its a cheap way to imprve the stance and geometry slightly but there may be other issues...
  19. Is that panty hose on yout filters ?
  20. Yeah how much does it sost ? Fags charging good people to bullshit about thier rides and get the help they need to keep them going, your taking work away from your sponsors as well, i'd rather fuckin give my last dollar as a donation to banshee HQ than give planetsand a penny to be a member...fucking nazi prick

  21. SOLD PENDING PAYPAL TRANSACTION THANKS Mike Banshee !!!
  22. 2006, with my blue shee..no problem
