Yes I do. There are a few showing again for you in the first post. I also have more pics of the bumper from different angles & behind (not mounted) if you'd like. Also, AC Racing sells a variety of cool grills for this bumper too. :-) Here is a pic with the front fenders on as well. -

The pipe package and tire/wheels set were sold today locally. The Front bumper & exhaust tips are all that remain at this time. Thanks for looking. -
FS. SoCal. FMF Fattys, AC RACING and SAND TIRES PADDLES
WillG. replied to WillG.'s topic in For Sale - Parts & Accessories
Just to clarify for anyone wondering, I was referring to all 4 wheels/tires as the set. -
I just sold my Banshee so I have no use for these at this time. I'm selling a near new set of chrome FMF Fatty pipes, polished and freshly repacked power core 2 silencers, billet pipe clamps, Pro-Flow air filter adapter with foam filter (filter has the removable metal cage inside), and 280 jets. The head pipes have only one trip to Superstition Mtn on them. There is one small ding on the lower right side expansion chamber. It was there when I bought them new, not really noticeable. Selling all as a package for $300. AC Racing Blackline front bumper/ skid plate for a banshee. Was only on for a few months, it sat most of that time. Has a mark where it rubbed the front of my truck bed. $60. Rear ITP Sand Star Paddles (20x11-10), front Kenda Dune Runner razors (21x7-10). All mounted on polished ITP light weight aluminum wheels (front rims are 10x5 (3+2) with 4/156 lug pattern, rear rims are 10x8 (3+5) with 4/115 lug pattern. They will fit many quads other then Banshees such as yfz450, raptor, warrior, etc.). All tires are in great shape and still have most of the nubs on them. Selling the set for $170. I also have a set of custom billet end caps/tips for the stock pipes, for anyone looking to get a little more sound & flow out of their stock setup but stay U.S.Forrest Service legal. $40. FYI, None of the prices include shipping. I'd like to see what local interest I get first before shipping. If interested, please PM me. Thanks for looking!

Got the dead man/ tether switch installed this evening. I used the tors wires under the tank and it works great! Thank you AKheathen for all your help!!! :-D
-
Ok i got the Pro Armor brand tether switch today. Its a pretty nice piece. After checking it out, I can confirm that it is a open circuit switch. So it looks like install options are limited. Since i want to keep the function of the key, I may be limited to installing it through the tors wires or coil wire as stated before.
-
Gotcha, understood. Sounds simple enough. I was looking at the Pro Armor switch again. it looks like that one may come as a normally closed circuit, but can be changed and ran as an open circuit as well. That may be good for the versatility. They dont have an "installation harnesses" for the banshee, but seems simple enough to not need the harness and just get the switch and run two wires.
-
The information you have provided has been very helpful! I am processing it all, and will decide what may work best at this time. If I understand you correctly by disconnecting the tors (If i choose to do so) it will still run and function properly, but will not kill the engine if a slide stays open?
-
I see. I did not notice a plug on the Tusk switch but Ill look again. If not, I want a switch that will complete a circuit when the tether is installed? Also, the TORS are still installed. Would that wiring method still be applicable?
-
I have been thinking of installing a dead man switch on my Shee. But upon looking at a few different ones, I see there may be different ones for atv's with open circuit or close circuit systems (Pro Armor brand). Which does the banshee have? Also I saw one (Tusk brand) that says the key switch has to be disconnected for the switch to work. I would like to keep the key switch as well. If anyone can let me know some good switches to choose from, and how/ where exactly to wire/ tap into would be appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks for the response DEcon. I've actually seen your pics on here before. Very nice! I have installed H.I.D. lights on my truck (as well as made it so the low beams, high beams, fogs, and off road lights are all on at the same time!), so I know how great the light output is. I wont lie, I would love to have H.I.D.'s on the quad. But I really don't know exactly how much I'll be riding at night and not sure if I can justify the cost and installation of all that's required to run them. So that's why I was looking into a less involved and cheaper, yet noticeable improvement over stock. I'm kind of surprised that I cant seem to find more H6M LED bulbs and real comparative info on them. I'm not sure if these would be a wast of money to try, since no one seems to have much input or experience with L.E.D. replacement bulbs. Sorry if I'm beating a dead horse lol.
-
I'd like to improve the stock head lights. But at this time I don't want to go through everything involved in upgrading the stator and adding a battery. I came across some replacement LED H6M bulbs on this website (about half way down the page). http://autolumination.com/1156_1157.htm Any one try these or have good results from them? If I wanted to run these, would all that would be needed is to convert the shee to DC correct? (which I'm still not very sure how to do)
-
Sold locally. Please delete if possible, Thanks!

I see some views but no responses. Let me know what you think a fair deal for these would be. Pm me some offers and we can go from there.

I have some nice 20x11-9, 8 paddle Skat Trak Edge tires that I am considering selling. They have just been sitting and I'm not sure when I'll ever actually use them now. So i thought i would check and see how much interest there is for these. They are mounted on stock rims. One of them has a plug and a patch (tire shop put in a plug then a patch on the inside over the plug). That plugged tire still has a pretty slow leak (takes a few days to leak out). I haven't bothered messing with it since I'm not using them anytime soon. But should be good enough to use as is though. I want to ask $150 for them. I'd rather find someone local and not ship as of now (I'm located in the Redlands, CA. area). But if i don't get much local interest, then I will consider shipping. Let me know what you think. Thanks for looking.

@Zwiser - I see your point. I did mention that in my post. When i was under the impression that they were in good condition, i was actually skeptical myself. But as would guess, i got what i paid for. I just didn't know it when i paid since i was led to believe otherwise. But the point is that one should represent the items that they are selling honestly & thoroughly. Then let the buyer decide if the price is right and if they want to give the item a shot. instead of being duped or bamboozled. Also, I wouldnt even say that I'm "pissed" at him. He/it wasnt worth enough of my energy to get too worked up over. I just want to give others a heads up about a negative experience to possibly help others. I just happen to be a very thorough person, even when it comes to covering details. @Phelps - Thank you!

I recently had a negative experience from this seller ("stroking"). He had two sets of header pipes for sale. In his FS thread he posted just a few pics of them. He was very vague in the actual condition of them. I inquired about them on his thread, but he never responded. So I texted him about them as per his request earlier in the thread. He claimed they were in good condition without cosmetic damages, dents, etc. and no fitment issues of any kind. His answers were vague and short. When i received the pipes, I realized that he hadn't been truthful about their condition & had only posted pics of them that did not reveal their true condition. I immediately told him I wasn't happy with them. He told me to send them back for a refund. I did so promptly. He received them. I asked about my refund. He told me that the paypal account wasn't actually his and he couldn't refund me through paypal, but could send me a money order. I accepted the offer. A week or so later after not hearing from him, & not knowing if he had sent it of not, I asked him if I should be expecting anything. He replied rudely and unprofessional telling me that he didn't have the money to refund me, and that he felt that I got such a good "deal" for them that he was going to ship them back to me when he can afford to. He insisted that I should pay for them to be shipped back to myself (LOL... wow..). I had a feeling about this seller early on and wanted to take the proper steps to help protect myself. So I opened a paypal dispute. I told him that I would cancel it when I got my refund. When he assured me that he wasn't going to refund me as he said he would when he told me to send them back, I escalated the paypal dispute to a claim. It took 10 days for the claim to run its course. The seller (or who ever's account is was) never responded or rebutted the dispute or claim. I was awarded my transaction yesterday. Although the experience put me out some money, it was nice to get most of it back (Although its not much much money to dispute, it's not the point). I must give Paypal credit for doing it's job and helping. I don't think I would've seen a penny if it were just left up to the seller and his character & conscience. Anyone looking to buy from this seller, beware! If he did it to me, he could do it to you too! As a general rule; If there aren't adequate pictures of the product(s), then demand more. And only send a payment through a secure method. Below i will provide the link to the FS thread, the actual texting conversation between us in its entirety & some pics of the pipes as he does not show them in his FS thread. http://bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=145439 (FYI; The seller is labeled as "James" because that was the name provided on package as the return shipping info) [07/28/2011 8:06 AM] Me: Hello, im contacting you about your Banshee pipes for sale.

[07/28/2011 8:48 AM] "James": Ok let me know when your ready [07/28/2011 9:07 AM] Me: By any chance, would you happen to know if they will bolt up/work with the stock silencers? Are the fmfs the darker ones you have pictured? [07/28/2011 9:07 AM] "James": Yes [07/28/2011 9:22 AM] Me: Sounds good. What type of payment? [07/28/2011 9:34 AM] "James": Paypal [07/28/2011 9:40 AM] Me: That works good for me [07/28/2011 9:47 AM] Me: You can send me a request for money if youd like.

Btw, does fmf pipes have and kind of brand markings or stamps? Any idea how old they may be? Sorry about all the questions [07/28/2011 2:59 PM] "James": It says fmf goldseries on it [07/28/2011 3:09 PM] Me: Ok sir, payment is sent! I sent a few dollars more to cover your 3% paypal fee too. :-) When do you think they will be on their way? [07/28/2011 3:19 PM] "James": Sent me your address now and I'll ship them in the morning [07/28/2011 3:22 PM] Me: Awesome, i really appreciate it! (gave him my name & address) [07/28/2011 3:22 PM] "James": Ok thanks [07/29/2011 5:46 AM] Me: Can you please provide me with a tracking number?

I just picked up some nice used fmf power core 2's locally to go with them. Looking forward to getting them and seeing how everything turns out. I was debating leaving the stock silencers with my custom tips on, but not sure. We'll see. [07/29/2011 11:24 AM] Me: Do you have any idea about what size jets i should run with those pipes? [07/29/2011 1:21 PM] "James": No all the bikes I do are on alky [07/29/2011 1:57 PM] Me: Ok, no problem. it shouldnt be too hard [07/29/2011 3:43 PM] "James": Try 340 main [07/29/2011 3:43 PM] "James": If you have stock carbs [07/29/2011 3:44 PM] "James": 158-165 for pj or pwk's [07/29/2011 3:48 PM] Me: Yeah i have stock carbs. Theres a toomy racing oem replacement filter on it. The lid is still on the airbox since the filter is on the stock cage and needs to be held in place by the air box cover. [07/29/2011 4:23 PM] "James": 320-360 just have to try and see what works best between those [07/29/2011 4:26 PM] Me: Ok cool. Im at around 2k above sea level. I ride higher up in elevation as well. So ill probably start with the smaller of those. Thanks! [08/10/2011 4:06 PM] Me: Subject: I just received the pipes today. I remember asking about any of them having any dents or issues with them. You said “No”. It probably would’ve been nice and honest to know that two of them had big dents in them had a hole patched… (I included a pic of them) [08/10/2011 10:07 PM] "James": Sorry you don't like them...if you Can send them back and I'll refund your money ...but for 60 i thought it was a good deal [08/11/2011 3:34 PM] Me: $65 did seem fair. I think I may go ahead and do that. [08/11/2011 4:02 PM] Me: Subject: And there is fitment issues with both sets… I will send them back to the return address on the box. If there is a better address for them to reach you at, please let me know within the next hour or so. Thanks. (pic’s included of some of the fitment issues) [08/11/2011 5:05 PM] Me: Subject: Heres the fedex tracking number. It should be there in 4 days. Please stay in contact. Thanks. [08/16/2011 2:42 PM] Me: Fedex tracking shows that the pipes were delivered back to you today. If you could please refund the paypal transaction, it would be much appreciated. Thanks! [08/16/2011 6:07 PM] "James": That's not my PayPal accoij [08/16/2011 6:07 PM] "James": Account...so I have to send a money order [08/16/2011 6:08 PM] "James": I can only receive money threw that account [08/16/2011 6:49 PM] Me: If you arent able to give money to the account owner then have him send it, then a check or usps money order for the full amount would be acceptable. I actually opened a request to get the money back thru paypal already. But i can cancel it when i get the refund in the mail. [08/16/2011 7:02 PM] Me: US postal money order for the $67 payment is cool. [08/17/2011 10:08 AM] Me: Please let me know if you will be sending it and when to expect it. Thank you.

[08/23/2011 5:25 PM] Me: A response with any info or update would be much appreciated. Communication is very important when working a situation out. Thank you. [08/23/2011 8:13 PM] "James": Look man I dont have the money to send to you and I told.you thats not my PayPal acc ....but you open a dispute anyway......when I get 25 I'm sending you [08/23/2011 8:13 PM] "James": the pipes back.....you got two headers for 65 and you still complain ...... In fact. I think you should pay the shipping back to you [08/23/2011 8:25 PM] Me: You sent me pipes that arent good.$65 for paper weights isnt a good deal. I asked before hand if there were fitment issues with them prior to buying them. You lied and said there wasnt. its not issue that you used someones elses account. The diputed before I knew any of that info. Your communication hasnt been great. So what am I to think. Its not my fault you spent the the money before making sure the transaction was transaction was completed with the buyer being happy. You told me to send them back if I wasnt happy, so I did. The right thing to do it put that $25 towards paying me back instead of shipping your crap pipes back out of spite. This isnt a hard issue to resolve. Just be a good business person and do the right thing by reimbursing my money like you agree to in the first place. Please. [08/23/2011 9:10 PM] "James": What did you want NEW pipe for 65...get real man ...... Its the pipes

I discovered a small hair line crack on the bottom of my case. I had it welded, and seems to be doing fine.
-
FYI, I just read that the engine should be warmed to normal operating temp before performing the test. The test i just performed was done without running the the engine first. In addition, the left cylinder side of the bike was being hit by the sun, while the other side was out of direct sun. Hopefully this info is thorough enough for a good analysis. I'll try to re-do the test when its cooler out.
-
Perhaps. But I just tried it again while both plugs were out (before i only took the plug out on the cylinder i was testing). The left read about 114-115 psi, and the right was about 109-110 ish psi (the tester started loosing air again when i was doing the right.
-
Ok, I just tried to do a compression test on it. I cant tell what the compression is because the gauge wouldn't hold pressure. It would allow some pressure to build up then quickly leak out. After a few tries it seemed like it would leak out as fast as I could kick it. The thing that seems weird about this is that I've tried 4 different testers will all the same results. What could this possibly mean?
