lol as much as i wanted to.......it was 1 in the morning and im pretty sure my neighbors wouldn't have liked it too well. Im gonna try in the morning when i get up.

dang that sucks. I checked the stator and it ohm'd good. then i checked the pickup coil and it had a .40mm gap. So i adjusted it to where its suppose to be. Think that could of been the problem?

Its an 02 Banshee, It has been running before but it hasn't been started up in awhile. We had to replace the coil before so it has a new coil and has new plugs. The spark plugs aren't firing. I thought maybe because the stator cover was off and dirt got in there and it wasn't making a good electrical charge so i cleaned up the notches on the flywheel and sprayed off the stator with some electrical spray. Still no fire at the plugs. maybe another bad coil? or maybe a bad starter relay? -

Its where the Clutch inner hub and the Pressure Plate line up. If you look on the Inner Hub theres a hole in the shape of an arrow. its the only hole facing outward and on the pressure plate there is an arrow on top of it as well. line those up after installing all the plates for the clutch. Thats the clutch boss

I figured it out. I didn't line up the clutch boss properly.

ok question. I have read it in the manual but i just want to verify. the metal tab on the metal plate doesnt stick through the basket right? the plates that i have on it wont reach the basket.

I have a clymers and was using it just overlooked the clutch boss. And no they r the same fibers that came out of it

Just got done rebuilding the motor and the clutch doesnt seem to grab. I may have not lined up the clutch boss correctly. tips? im gonna pull the case cover back off tomorrow and make sure i lined up the boss right.

Yea that's what I thought too. There wasn't any damage to the cases I was surprised

The nipple on the right hand side outer crank bearing is sheared off. does the bearing need to be replaced? or could you loctite the bearing when u press the cases together? Words of advice?

Do you still have the Clutch basket?

Looking for a Stock or Aftermarket Clutch Basket in good condition.

if you still have the Billet Basket ill take it

Do you still have that Billet Basket?

Can you send pics of the billet basket to [email protected]

you still have the stock clutch basket?

and thank you for pointing that out. i was under the assumption that the gears were in the same compartment as the crank EDIT: the chunk of piston is not anywhere near the gears fyi

oh i completely agree and i told him when he was buying it that a banshee isnt a learners bike. But as for maintenance and knowledge i have to agree. i had a banshee as a kid and my dad sold it because i was learning to ride wheelies. i have a raptor 660 that ive dropped over 5k into the engine alone so i know ALL about it getting pricey. So we shouldnt go the stroker route...ok:( lol

Haha yea i figured it would but ya know im just trying to help a brother out. I know quite a bit about 4 stroke engines and 2 strokes are even easier. but i figured why not stroke it since we have to replace the crank anyways. its already has fmf gold series pipes and powercore 2 silencers but as far as that i believe its all stock.

So my buddy went and bought a 02 Banshee and the right side compression was off. I noticed it when we were buying it but figured it was probably his piston rings or he wasnt getting good spark on that side. Well i tore his Carbs apart and cleaned them out and we put new gas in the tank and made sure everything was cleaned out because if was bogging pretty bad. Well That didnt fix it so i took his head apart and his right piston was broke and the chunk that broke off is believed to be somewhere down in the cases. I kno i kno he got screwed hardcore but this is his first bike and he needs to learn how to work on and fix his own bike. So as of now we need a new crank, pistons, gaskets, and im hoping that the gears are all good because that lil chunk is still down in there. While were in the engine. What parts do yall recommend for us to upgrade to improve the bikes performance. He is still learning to ride so we r trying to get this thing rolling as fast as we can. But i figured why not ask the masters and see what we can do cheap and easy while we are in there and start building his engine back up. We plan on throwing a stroker crank in it and run stock piston size unless it has to be bored over. i say it needs a good hone and it will be fine. Should it be bored to run a stroker? also at what +-size rod do u have to shave the cylinder so it wont hit and when does the case need to be trenched? Also whats a cool head and are they a pretty good investment? any advice on building this bike back up and getting it running better would be greatly appreciated.
