  1. I prefer to sell the entire set. But if no one takes the set within the next day or 2. 70 bucks, including shipping. Shipping costs add up quick for these parts.
  2. I will have to unbox the brand new parts if I do that. If necessary, I will, but later today. Thanks, Tim
  3. I sold my Banshee a while back, and never got a chance to install these parts. I will sell them at a great price. The following 3 parts: PRM-ATV.com aluminum parts, brand new, still in box. Desert II Bumper Bottom Pan .125 Logo Edge 6 Pack Rack. Check out their website for pics. The total was over $300 with shipping. I will sell for $175, including shipping within the USA. No forign sales please, This is basically half price. Paypal for payment, local pickup price in South Florida (West Palm Beach is $150). No negotiation, awesome price.
  4. Good job Omar. The dealers in the KSA or the USA for that matter dont know what they are talking about. I guess you got in in al khobar, where I got my 2009 this year? Enjoy the banshee!
  5. I'd go closed to 36:1 to 40:1. Omar are you in KSA? The dealer adds way too much oil here.
  6. OK.... so you are 16. with extra cash to spare. Awesome! Now if someone my age (45) would have made me smarter, and told me about mutual funds, and really encouraged me to start one. If I would have started around 18, or 16.... I would be a millionaire right now! But Im not, so PLEASE LISTEN TO ME!! Dude do 200-300 bucks a month into a mutual fund (for the rest of your life) , and spend the rest of the money on saving for a ported 4mil. Start now, and always pay yourself first!!!!!! And don't ever let pussy or anything else get in the way....listen.... I wish someone had told me (and I had listened). Good Luck!
  7. 700 a month into an IRA or mutual fund, unless you are fully funding a retirement already. Also make sure you have 3-6 months living expenses stored away in an emergency fund. Ive seen too many people here build a nice machine, only to have some life event happen, and they have to sell it for pennies on the dollar. After that, it's a ported 4 mil.
  8. Id say back the timing down and consider different domes. From your first post you said you are almost flat broke, so I would consider getting domes for pump gas premium. I mean you have a 421 ported Banshee, why not just set it up with +4 timing and domes for pump premium gas? It going to be super fast, dependable, and a lot cheaper to run. If you don't have a lot of funds, your Banshee is 90 percent of what you need to make it fast AND affordable. I mean pushing the bike the the absolute maximum with race gas can get expensive. Just my 02 cents since you asked. Good Luck and keep us posted.
  9. Raise the clip to lower the needle and lean it a bit. Thats what I meant. Like others said, first drop the mains a bit, then try the needle a notch. One step at a time.
  10. Also consider dropping the needle one more notch. That's what it took to get my mid range transition from mid to hi rpm to run right.
  11. 21 or 22cc domes seem to be the size most folks go with. Do you have 93 octane available? If 93, I would go 21cc, for 91 I would go 22cc. You already are at 5 degrees timing. The increased compression really make the banshee rip, I have just about the same mods plus PWK 28s, and boy does shee rip. I mostly have traction issues, so I see no reason to add power from where I am for now.
  12. I just checked your mods: 421 Cheetah Cub Play Port by HJR Chariot Head 165psi Shearer Inframe Exhaust VForce Delta 2s 35mm PWKs w/ pod k&N & Boss Intake Hotrods 4 mil long rod crank w/ Tz bearing Hinson basket with straight cut gears Lockout Cutch Timing +7 Shift Star, Rod, & Drum mods +4 Swingarm What I believe happened is this: +7 timing, combined with 165 PSI and ported, equals a need for race gas. AV gas might not be high enough octane for your setup. Jetting a little rich does not mean you don't have to worry about having enough octane to prevent detonation. I would back down to +4 timing when I put new pistons in if I were you. (Consider race gas, or bigger domes as well) Also remember, the temps just got a lot cooler, and the air is more dense, leading to a leaner condition for your bike. The load of pulling another quad is also a lot different than just you hauling ass alone. I think these factors lean to the detonation and the broke piston. Ive blown motors before, and I know what it takes to do so. Good Luck and keep us posted.
  13. I just checked the pics. Ash white spark plug electrode plus poc marks on top of the piston equals detonation. You probably have been running a bit lean all along, but towing the craptor was more load than normal. The engine got hot which leads to detonation. I would put in new pistons, and up the main jets at least one size, and also raise the needle at least one clip. Then ride and check your plugs and powerband. Do it right the first time.
