  2. Quick pc'ing question

    in Banshee Repairs and Mods

    Hey guys, I'm thinking about powdercoating my engine case while I have my bike fully disassembled. My issue is I am unclear on how much I need to remove from the engine b4 pc. Do I need to split the cases or can the motor be pc'd partially disassembled? I'm assuming they'll have to be split so just the case can be pc'd but I've never had anything pc'd b4

    ok, i guess what the questions are ....what fuel do i need to run with 18cc domes at around 4600' + ...i believe i got my answer for that which is 101. Question two being if i run say 20cc domes for 91 octane would i have to downsize my carbs which are 34mm. ideally i would like to know what dome size and carb combo will work on a stock motor without running race fuel i guess... this crap is getting frustrating :/  i appreciate you guys input though ty

  10. What Fuel for dome size

    i was told when i purchased my banshee that it had 20cc domes and tm32 carbs and therefore i could run pump gas with no problem, well upon teardown for a top end rebuild after a 70/90 compression test i have verified that what i actually have are 18cc domes and mikuni t34 carbs. now my understanding is that with 18cc domes i should be running race fuel, correct?. and if so what octane should i be running?

  14. Semi Newb Rebuild

    Hey all, I recently picked up a 2005 Special edition shee.. When purchased it would start first kick every time like clock work and so i thought i made out at a purchase price of 2900.00 for a pretty well decked out banshee. well about 2 months of having it was getting harder and harder to get started... so naturally i checked my plugs, made sure i was getting plenty of fuel, cleaned my pods etc.. everything looked good. So the only thing left was to do a compression test... this yielded me 70psi on the left cyclinder and 90psi on the right..this seemed really low to me even at my elevation which is around 4500ft. especially since it has a pro design cool head although im not sure what size domes. (guy i bought it from said 19 or 20cc he "thinks") At this point it was time for a tear down of the top end which was fairly easy for me since this is the second time i have done so (also owned an 01 few yrs back)

    what i found was a cracked left piston. I also noticed that the tool that i bought it from had tried to pry the cylinders up with what appears to be a screw driver and marred the based of the jugs up pretty well, Instead of risking using the marred up jugs i have decided to just purchase new ones. I noticed right away this was not going to be cheap at a min. of 800$ for new jugs. I have looked into multiple options for cyclinders but im just not sure what would be the best choice for me. I would like to keep the stock strock and be able to build with what i already have ie cool head,32mm carbs and toomeys to keep cost down. most of my riding is trails but if i can her going good again id like to hit the north sand hills in walden nxt yr.. SO THE BIG QUESTION IS :D What setup would go good with what i already have but keep the stock stroke?? any help would be appreciated greatly :D
