If those are stock cylinders that are resleeved be careful bro. There is not a lot of meat for the cylinder studs up top. The can pull out easy. Adam

If the outter magnets are striking the pick-up coil it might be you are too close. .020 is what I set mine at. If the power coils are getting chewed up you have other problems. Can you wiggle your crank? Does it move around? How old is your banshee? How many hours? Are the Crank bearings loose? Sounds to me the crank is moving around to hit the stator. Maybe someone has a couple junk stators you can get the pick-up coils from Adam

Yup, went home decided 10mil, then went to play! Lol

Well, thats not quite correct Picklez, thats a 15 hp difference. Do you have a dyno sheet to prove this?

You could call NOSS, they will make anything you want.

Leak down test that bitch. If you have oil in the breather tube it's not a good thing. It could be right side crank seal is bad. Adam

Use windex. It will foam better on tiny leaks

Maybe this weekend? My raptor buddies want to hit Slades or some crap. Did the stator work? Hope it runs well. 450R is done and back together. I think I need a bigger jet, it was surging wide open with a 165 in it, comes with a 118, so that cam and exhaust wants more fuel! haha, going to get that 04 banshee tomorrow. Hopefully its just the tors screwing up!! haha wouldn't that be cool. SIDE NOTE: The ATV Stand at Harbor Freight is on sale this week 20 bucks off! 159.99! I got the flyer today. Adam

You can run an airbox with any carb/intake combo providing you have a mig welder and a few pieces of flat steel. With welding new holding tabs for the airbox you could move it forward or backwards. I will be doing this in the next few weeks, I will post pictures of the job once completed. Basically my idea is to weld a new tab to the frame and use a threaded bung with a custom made bolt, threads only on the back half, to hold the front of the airbox. I will them reweld the mounts on the back of the airbox and tack on a couple of threaded bungs. This allows the airbox to come out easily by removing the two bolts upfront. Just an idea. Adam

Thats how I felt after reading what Redline posted! Adam

Well, using the engine to slow you down is call "Compression Braking or Engine Braking" normally used in Tractor's and known as the Jake Brake. So Redline threw a wrench in what everyone has said about duneables. Down shift if you want, just make sure that you are going to use the power you are putting into the transmission. IE: Dropping a gear to accelerate or to get back on the pipe. You can let off the gas, it will slow you down, but don't use the engine to slow you down going down a hill? The popular theory states, you cannot downshift a duneable. The exception is that you do not need to be at a complete stop to shift down, but you need to be in the same power ratio for your gearing. You came to the top of the hill, pulled the clutch, slowed down, you can downshift to idle speed in 2nd gear and take off from there, or whatever would be relevant to how you are riding at that time. Also the Duneable is a better transmission than a stocker and allows MORE backloading than a stock? This I do not understand. Adam One question answered, and 50 new ones.

Well what is back loading? I thought that back loading was using the transmission to slow the bike. IE: compression braking. So downshifting if you are moving uses the compression to slow down to some degree no matter your speed. Adam

Dunable or not, you shouldn't downshift that transmission. That is called back loading. I called around the info i got was as follows: You can cause problems downshifting. You can up shift under power. You can let off the throttle to back out of a wheelie, but you can DS like a stocker. I got this info from Jeff at FAST, he uses WCR cut duneables. Stock transmission is the way to go if you are going to be beating on it like this Adam

Put those pistons forsale in the forsale section, eat 30 bucks and get the right size. They should sell! Forsale has a lot of ports going through it all the time. No big deal on the mistake, hurts our pride a little but we all make mistakes! Adam

Great shipping on these parts!! Prompt and fast, but this stuff up, prices are good! Adam

Take both of those lifts back and get this one for the same price. This one will jack up waist high for easier working or using a stool. ATV LIFT Adam

I stopped in to NAPA the other day, I told them I wanted to relocate my Reservoirs for my shocks and I needed Braided lines with 10mm Banjo fittings. They said they could make them they just needed the size and the length. They also said that it is sold by the foot. I didnt get a price, the one guy I talked to was not that helpful. Try napa for your brake lines, just tell them they are shock lines because they will not make brake lines. Adam

it is an expensive frame.

Fuck it, Do what you want, I have no credibility as a mechanic. I just spend money. Adam

10 mil serval can be bought for about 2400$ maybe less 1200ish top end kit with domes for noss type head 850ish for a good crank, seals 20 and trenching. Pm me for more info. I will discuss who I am going through and why. Adam

Start it up and drain the bowl by letting idle or drain the bowl by letting the gas out of them. The gas in the tank is fine. Just shake the machine before you turn the gas on when you get back. Gas will last months before going bad. Non-ethonol will last longer. Adam

I just got the rest of my parts ordered today because I got that crank! I got home from dinner checked the forums and said shit!! Deal of the 1/4 century went down last night on a bunch of parts here. Adam

What did the head gasket look like on that side? That is pretty nasty btw. Adam

Stator cover was sold. I believe Troy bought that.

Crank Sold! Adam
