Hi Guys..
My mates banshee has a problem, when you ride it it makes a softish backfire sound now and then(sometimes now and then, sometimes alot, and while making the sound the bikes power is not what it should be), but the sound is way louder when you remove the seat and airbox cover, so thought it was a reed problem causing to backfire through the carbs. Took out the reeds and tested them, they leaked a bit so replaced them all. Put everything back together and tested the bike, but the same sound is still there. The bike never used to do this, just started 2 rides ago. Any ideas on whats wrong? Or what to check next?
Thanx

Do you know what arms he's using in the front?
He says he uses a-arms made by this company : http://www.semog.com/online/#

Got one more pic from the guy...seems like you only need to modify the dogbone...
-
These are the other pics this guy posted of his banshee :
This is what he said about his bike :
"My motor +4mm crank, cool head 22cc,v-force 2,mikuni tm38 mm,k&n air filter 65mm bore CDI + 1000 RPM,+4 timing plate, exhaust trinity stage IV.
My swingarm it is yfz 450 2007.
Rear shock it is cbr 600 f4.
Front shock it is yamaha r6"
-
Saw this pic on the net, spoke to the guy who's bike it is, he is in Portugal, and he says the swingarm fit without modifying it.
Has anyone ever done this that can confirm that it fits without modification??

Damn, just as i was about to PM you again and say i will take them!! Ah well...you win some you lose some!
-
Damn i wish i had the cash for these right now!!
-
Coolest banshee i've seen on here!! Keep up the good work!!
-
CGR is that 450 a-arms and shocks you got on there? Reason i'm asking is it looks higher in the front than other shees i saw with the 450 conversion.

Probably just some gas out the overflow cuz of the angle of the wheelie.
Maybe your float level is slightly off..

Have you checked the sync? they should be opening and closing at the exact same time with one another.
Yup have checked them, they were 100%, will check again this weekend when i install my new filter.
-
it could be a number of things, i would replace the plugs and clean the carbs 1st thing. is it only during idle that its different?
Will do! Br8es plugs fine? What should the plug gap be? Bit difficult to look behind me while riding so not 100% sure on that one. Will ask a mate to ride behind me and check next time we ride.

is one of your slides hanging up?, carbs synced?, good spark, new plugs?
No, slides not getting stuck, checked the carbs, spark is good. Mmm oldish plugs, could that be the problem?
Bike runs perfect though, dragged 2 other banshees and a 09 can-am 450 x, and won all of them by quite a big margin, so nothing wrong with how the bike pulls.
Could it maybe be the exhaust packing? Time for new ones maybe?
-
Good day guys, im quite new here so i hope i am in the correct section.
What could be the reason for more smoke coming from one of my exhausts than the other side?
Something to worry about?
-
Some nice looking shee's here!
-
Looking awesome!! Very nicely done! Can't wait to see the end result!! What shocks are you planning on using? LT?
-
Quite fun, but i like MW2 gameplay more, but dislike that it didn't have dedicated servers!
-
Can't wait for this one!!

Thanx guys, will add those to the checklist!
If it is leaking air in somwhere, would it not make that sound the whole time?
