  1. Works Shocks

    in For Sale - Parts & Accessories

    Posted

    $350 shipped.

     

    14.75" eye to eye, fresh rebuild with new seals, orings, oil, nitrogen, and powder coat. I did scuff the inside of one spring installing and one bump stop has a couple very small cracks around the lip (see pictures). Everything functions as it ahould, 100% ready to bolt on and ride.5f0d87bb83855aeba4ee96759bdaf5b7.jpgc35ecf7f160b214340caa8e3f0baa296.jpg70a8f86a1259b819f92cadad14587903.jpg7780875879c81ec63eabf87b972c44a1.jpg9879c235d881f1e11827b70ac2ac46e7.jpg657a3dc19123f2bece2aae20154011e7.jpg8892379ae6292517853074bc99f84d60.jpge05b7a425db4cd8f861329128efa8506.jpg

  4. Engine Swap

    in Banshee Repairs and Mods

    Posted

    You should get a banshee engine built by someone that knows what they're doing. An R1 engine will make it slow, heavy and unreliable. A street bike motor on a drag bike is a bad idea. A street bike motor in a trail bike is a horrible idea.

     

  6. Carb Issues

    Doubtful the running out of fuel is a needle/seat issue. You could need new ones but it they were worn you would have a fuel surplus and not deficit. Try taking the gas cap off and see if the problem goes away. Some vent hoses or caps will cause this problem. Next I would check the screen on the petcock inside the tank. They do clog up and cleaning it should be part of regular maintenance. 

    On a side note, you shouldn't leave your petcock on when the bike is sitting.

     

  14. New build 421, mostly drags

    You know, Snipers don't seem to be that much more expensive than Shearers or CPIs...yeah, after tuning I'd have to chrome them, but if according to the charts I've seen they peak that much higher than CPI, and the construction is tig, shoot, they're worth it I think...

    Used snipers are almost non existent and go for twice that of Shearers if you can find them. New the price is the same but you don't get chrome with sniper and the wait for Snipers is unknown. I know people that have been on the wait list for over a year and production is currently stopped. If you think you'll order a set and have them in a few weeks you'll be disappointed. On a side note, if you're going to have them chromed do it immediately. After the first time you start the bike with them the number of shops that will chrome them goes way down and the price way up.

     

    I own all three sets of the pipes we're discussing. Every motor is different but Im very confident Shearers will make equivalent power up top to the Snipers although you'll loose a little down low. For a hillshooter CPI shouldn't be in the discussion imo.

  17. Looking for a tank need a little direct.

    The stock tank is the largest tank you can use covers on. They're about 3.2 gallons. Call West Coast ATV and they'll get you setup with a good used tank.

    As a side note. Your BP 411 is most likely a 397. BP uses deceptive marketing, advisertising high end parts and sending cheap ones known for premature failure as well as telling you the engine will be larger than it actually is. I'd recommend you go with another place for future parts needs.

  20. Low compression on 4 mil Rebuild

    in Banshee Repairs and Mods

    Posted · Edited by 97Screamer

    Gusto is correct, 135psi is perfect for pump gas and running race fuel on a play bike is expensive for no real reason. Who is your builder? If your builder told you to run race fuel at 135psi ask again to make sure you didn't misunderstand. That would be a very odd setup.

    Save your money and build a bigger engine if you want more power. 0.015" squish is stupid tight. You should be about three times that.  Squish band and dome size are two different things. You can get smaller cc domes cut with the same squish but again its a waste of money in my opinion.

  23. Which Motor/Build?

    in Banshee Repairs and Mods

    Recently bought two banshee frames only, so I've got a clean slate on what to build. I am planning to only build one right now, the other will be built end of the year/first of next year as a trail bike. The one frame I am focusing on is going to be a flat track racing build. I figured if I'm going down this road I might as well buy the right stuff the first go around. The main question I have is what motor/build should I look into for flat track racing only? I do not own any banshee motors yet just want to buy the right one best suited for my needs.
    I have started a list of the build, motor is going to be the first thing I buy. Currently getting ready to powder coat the frame.
    Any questions, I'll try to answer as quickly as possible. Thank you!
    EDIT: I forgot to add my budget, I would like to keep it around $3500. It can be more if it's worth it.
    $3500 for the whole build or the motor? You're definitely money ahead either way to buy a complete bike and build it the way you want. Building one from a bare frame for $3500 will be impossible using the right parts.
