Check out the engine forum the are many many post on this. It sounds like the % go with Castor 927 as well as I do with great longevity for the motor, with a side of smelling great also, if you ride a lot it will diffenity cost more when fueling, but in the grand scheme of things and motor life spend IT. Riot Racing

The bikes motor was not designed from the manufacture to run or need a higher octane fuel. But if you modified it with cutting the head more than .035 or a cool head w/small chambers and a hotter ignition than in order to run that motor efficently you will need to run a mixture of race gas and 93 or all race gas 108. Just running race gas will slow down the burn in the combustion camber and fatten the motor up slowing you down just to smell good and waste motor.

Castor 927 is the man of oil's using it for years in two shes @ 40-1 not an ounce of issues This is a must us in our performance 2-strokes

Sorry Bud when in Rome ride the same as the Romams Look at it this way you'll always be the FAST GUY Just bustin your chops

When reassembling the bearings dont forget the round tube spacer that goes inside to keep the proper spacing between the bearings wheng tighten the axle lock nuts use a small amount of blue loctite. Tap the bearings in gentle dont hit the inner race only tap on the outer race same goes for the seals, Tap them at the corner not torwards the seal you'll crack the sidewall of the bearing. 1/4 round flat punch works great. Use a very high emery cloth cloth 400 maybe, very lightly polish the axle area where the inner race sits. Just take your time clean all parts and it a walk in the park. Got my gearings from Magic Racing. Good Luck Brother,

I Have 2 shees one with Fatties and one with PC. Fatties with a fresher motor wins all the time. I will be r&r the PC motor soon and the races will begin again soon. Love them Fatties Man.

YEP never dull is the king, comes in a small chrome can with black lettering and it looks like a big wad of cotton. Just work it good elbow grease man and wipe off with a clean rag. Good Luck Man

Yamaha does recomand 91-93oct for there perforamance Quads. @ high rpm's were Banshees usual live you my and my not here minor detination (knocking). All motors 2 or 4 stroke are all designed to run at a specfic oct. If you run to high of an oct the motor doesn't have the comprerssion, hot enough spark, or timing advanced enough to fire all of it and your running a little fat. To low of oct will slowly kill the motor with pinging. Only in a pinch should you use a lower oct fuel at that dont run the motor at high RPM's very long just get to the closes station to get the proper fuel. Always try to run what the manufacture suggest to have a happy long relationship with you motor and always run good oil.

In Il you have Fox Grove its in Ottowa Il not to shabby 1 track, shit load of hills from 1-10 good amount of trails, drag strip, good facilities, mud pit and cheap but most likey it's way to far for you to drive. Where else do you ride in Mich? Has anyone been to redbird in In yet?

Castor 927 is one of the top shelf oils out there. Everyone has opinions on what they like or use. What were they mixing it at ratio? and how fat was the bike running? Dont mix more premix fuel that you will use for the day if possible. In time leaving the premix sitting the oil starts to break down and looses its lubercation properties. NOT A GOOD THING!!! For gas just sitting around for months and months put it in your car it wont care, but in a performance quad its not smart , they make a product called Stable for gas that will sit for a period of time. I would not use premix oil in my performance quad that was more than two weeks old my motor is not worth it!! If you ride hard and fast with a lot of racing it's just not worth it. 3.5gal + oil say 9 bucks worth the fresh 93oct premix money will spent. Good Luck

Welcome aboard dont let the horndogs get to you, just a bunch of old smak. If you and the family head up to Silver Lakes let me know. Where in the Chicagoland are and go up there once a year. Tell you family to try Badland in Atticia In or Haspin Acres in Laural In. Haspin is really the HOT LASH kind of a drive but well well worth it for a lond weekend. Where going Thanksgiving weekend Friday-Sunday Good Luck and Welcone Again.

No No No, Free cheap money and little work and good gains, timing plate or key +4, and have the head cut .030, they work GREAT together. key $22, puller $5 magic racing, cut the head $35, gasket $15 local machine shop. After that port the read cages and put in good reeds no need for that expensive crap you won't even tell much of a difference between port fof a few bucks and 200+ for v-force. Porting free do it yourself do a search for free pictures or templates, reeds cheap money demending on what you like. Then you can bore the carbs larger for a little more top end this is cheap also and all still has the stock look. Under $80 Put wetter water or engine ice in her plus 1-2 in-line coolers cooler=HP under $100 also. For what the v-force reed cost and a few bucks you can doo all of this. Oh Yaa put a 15 tooth front sprocket on. Good Luck Man

What kind of trails and terrain do you have, we've been to Silver Lakes a few times Does Red Bud allow 4-Wheels yet? in Bucannon Mi. How far are you from the Chicagoland area?

Have two Banshee one has FMF Fatties and the other has PC all the rest of the work is the same, FMF are on a fresher motor and beats the PC'S by 4-5 bikes all the time. Remember Opions are like assholes we all have them and they all stink. Good Luck

Go to roostin the dunes and you can down load the manual in a pdf format for free and print it out, only 200+ pages

Use 927 @ 40:1 works great and smell good also, can't go wrong with a Castor. Remember the high the ratio the fatter it will run!!!!! Lots of Luck
