  2. Under paddled banshee?

    in General Banshee Discussion

    Posted

    Get Paddle brats. I run those 9 paddle 3.5 psi and they hook hard in everything.  I tried running 6 psi and it had noticeably more spin. You could try running 3 psi and see if it helps, im no pro on sand setup I just know what I have works good
    What size are you running sully

    I have about an 80 est. Hp banshee, +4" swinger, 250lb rider. Currently I have 9 paddle bead to bead buff haulers. 68 ro (if I Remember right) smut only. They don't feel like they are hooking great on the hill. Running at 4 psi in the super soft stuff. Should I try less psi or more Paddles?

  7. AC-delco, Craftsman, Snap-on compression test

    in General Banshee Discussion

    Posted

    thought i would share the drastic difference between a quality compression gauge vs others on the market.

     

    the bike:

    98 banshee 

    fresh 421 assassin low ports

    33mm pwk's

    vf4 reeds

    cpi inframe

    noss head 18cc domes

    +4 timing

     

    the gauges:

    ac delco from orielly. 24.99

    craftsman from sears. 47.99

    snap-on eepv500. 234.99

     

    current elevation 6500ft.

    where i ride 7000ft.

     

    all tests were done one after another on an engine that ran for about 5 minutes to pull it out of the trailer to garage, both plugs out, throttle WO, kicked until gauge stopped climbing.

     

    estimated compression from driveline 170psi for 110

     

    First test was with the ac delco: about 15 kicks until gauge stopped right on 140 psi 

     

    second test was with the craftsman: about 15 kicks until gauge stopped at 155 psi

     

    third test was with the snap-on: about 15 kicks until gauge stopped at 165 psi

     

    the difference concerns me a little due to the fact that if i would have ran fuel appropriate for 140 psi i would have probably had serious detonation and could have hurt motor easily.

    i am sure this has been posted before but just thought it would help out others. i didnt have a snapon, but i easily found one to borrow for an afternoon. if you are in a similar position to what i was, take a day to find someone to help you out with a good compression gauge.
