  1. People have been using Xylene for years and years. It has the same properties as regular conventional gasoline. I have NEVER heard of xylene causing damage to an engine. I have used it myself, without any problems for years. Same goes for many other drag racers.
  2. yep 64.5 bore with Wiseco Prolites
  3. Did you recently change the tranny fluid? Some tranny fluids like fully synthetic might cause problems with the clutch or shifting. It's a good idea to check the fluid anyway
  4. Get some pipes as well. Since you have to rejet for the new air filter, you might as well get pipes too. There are great deals on this forum for used pipes, or you can look on ebay. Trust me, it's worth the money just for the sound ! And you will gain some noticeable HP!
  5. People say that RM stator is a POS, so toss it in the garbage and get a OEM one from Yamaha. Next, you need to look at how much compression you are running, what fuel you are using, and what plug. The BR8ES plug might not be "cold enough" if you are running a high compression motor with low octane gas. If it's detonation you can look at the current plugs and tell instantly if that is the problem.
  6. you can use 93 octane and 10% Xylene, which will bump it up a few points. It's cheaper than race gas. I used to use it in my supercharged mustang.
  7. I think the HP series is more or less for drag racing and high power output engines. For regular trail riding and occasional drag, you would be fine with the usual Pro-lites. They are both forged pistons, and you can't go wrong with either choice
  8. guaranteed to work: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2005-YAMAHA-BANSHEE-oem-COIL-electrical-87-06-/360448313537?pt=Motors_ATV_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item53ec64c8c1

  10. Weak spark could be from bad spark plug caps. Failing CDI could cause that...also are you sure the coil is good ? Have you inspected the jets and all other carb parts ?
  11. Two things I've learned with Banshee's: 1) Always expect shit to go wrong 2) Always expect to pay more than your planned budget That being said, add another 500-600 to your build, and that will be the true cost lol.
  12. send nudez or the baby kitten gets it !
  13. no need for clymers http://www.bansheehq.com/yamaha-banshee-tech-info-tips.html
  14. Nice lookin wifey u got ! I think it's super hot when chicks know how to ride .....in more ways than one haha
  15. holy carnage, batman ! time for a big bore !
  16. well, I bought some 50 cent springs from Ace hardware and I already had the O-ring, so I'm going to give it a shot lol
