If it ran fine before, you need to put same head, base & piston (type) back in. Or your timing will be off ( using wrong piston and or domes to fix) Sent from my SM-A505U using Tapatalk

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CT knows that, they prolly gunna try and sell him the port job to go with it lol

I have a chariot billet basket that needs some love ( hole to be tapped) and new cushions if you wanna save money, ill sell it to you cheap. 

[Banshee runs strong but Compression at 90psi and 100psi on the 2nd cyl]

if it runs fine then run it.  a better tester with the right tip will give you a more accurate reading, plus with the throttle open.  if the compression was bad, it would start hard.

Thread is 10 years old. But in case somebody else wanted more info.

My Banshee is stock bore stock crank, T5 exhaust, shaved flywheel, 19cc coolhead domes. 93 octane.

Power band hits at 5500 and starts to drop off at 11,000 I can run 13,000 but you start to really notice the power loss.

 

Also! Once engine temps get over 150. You will notice decreased performance. And anything over 200 it's a real dog.

your t5s carry peak power up to 11 k?  

[Banshee top end]

If it feels rich down low, turn the air screw out a half turn or full turn and up the main jet a size or two. Sounds like minor jetting changes

[Banshee top end]

whats pilot with AF setting and when did u plug chop. weather def plays a role (as mentioned above)  if it was perfect in the summer and still running a 158 you might be 2-3 sizes too lean now depending on how cold it is.  Carbs and bowl size is not your issue as long as float level is fine. 

[Looking for someone who works at a Ford Dealership.]

Im no ford mechanic by any means but it sounds to me like you have the wrong spark plugs

try BR8ES and sync the carbs with a vacuum tool. Also leak down test

ben ^ actually has them lol  i actually havent sold then re wanted the parts ive just sold in a long time.  im making progress.

JM industries is apparently working on carbon fiber silencers for shearers and snipers right now but im assuming they will be expensive af.  Nice products i just cant justify spending that much on half of the products.  But if the silencers are really nice ill prolly grab a set.

why is no body talking about bills pipes??

I have one on my lawn mower makes more power over stock

bills>snipers

[Can a hone be the cause of lower compression after top end rebuild?]

edit. I just read your post again, im assuming now by 68mm you meant the GASKET kit.  the only thing that could effect your compression is the base gasket.  your base gasket would have to be a hell of a lot thicker to drop 40 psi.  a thinner base gasket is going to bring the piston closer to the dome which tightens the squish and increases compression (not significantly though) the opposite is true for thicker gaskets.  going from a .020 to a .032 gasket wouldnt drop compression by 40 psi for example

I lubed the rings
I lubed the cylinder walls
I lubed the top of the pistons
I lubed the side of the pistons with the residual lube left on my fingers from lubing everything else
The motor was using Cometic before the rebuild and I put in Cometic after the rebuild. Before was 65.5mm kit part number C7094, after is 68mm kit part number C7316.
The quad already had a milled head and was/is a 4 mil before the build
Nothing other than a hone was done.

how did you go from a 65.5 pistons (basically 100 over pistons) to a 68 mm piston? did he put big bore sleeves in your motor after as well? even if he did that still doesnt  make sence because youd still be less than 68mm unless they start at 68mm..  dont count on ring seating netting you another 40 psi

I say buy a beater and keep this one crated. its been 13 years already whats another 13

[4 mil stock ported cylinders squish result.]

what gauge solder did you use? maybe it wasnt thick enough.  

[4 mil stock ported cylinders squish result.]

.050 or bigger would be more ideal. whats the compression at? did you test that yet

doesnt take a banshee mechanic to adjust a clutch, just knowledge on how a clutch works.  blue loctite on the end of the jam nut every time. 

[2006 Banshee dome selection]

there is debate on this as far as i can see but for the most part most builders that you talk to will tell you around 160 you wanna run 100 octane (or half 110 half 93) and any compression above that race fuel.  I ran 93 on my old 4 mil stock cylinder setup at 160 psi with no detonation issues, but the first time i took it to the dunes I was backing plugs out all day, higher octane would have helped in that case ( or less timing), terrain can play a role. 

[Electrical gremlins]

Here is the best way to rule out electrical headaches.  throw away your old harness and buy a new one from south texas banshee.  eliminate every electrical piece and just run a kill switch tether so the bike runs, then you can mount your cdi behind your gas tank or oem location (let your harness maker know which location)  then join  banshee hq swap page and buy a used OEM only stator.  then get new NGK plug caps they are cheap, and then your done.

Because single carb setups are the new hipsters of the banshee world

why not just run stock carbs?
