  2. Driveline STD Heavy duty clutch kit

    in Banshee Repairs and Mods

    Posted

    Do you guys advise me to put back the heavy duty springs or keep the stock ones? For now my bikes only pipes and filter, I replaced my clutch because I will be installing a new ported engine soon. I assume I will have to put the heavy duty springs back when I do so. But for the hydraulic lever, how good are the chinese copies of them and can u link me one? Also would it be easy to pull with a hydraulic lever and heavy duty springs?

  3. Driveline STD Heavy duty clutch kit

    in Banshee Repairs and Mods

    Posted

    So the other day I bought the driveline heavy duty kit, and after installing the new springs I realized they made the clutch much harder to pull no matter how I adjust the pancake bearing. I ended up putting stock springs with the driveline friction plates and steel plates. Would it in any way hurt more than help? I know the driveline springs are probably better, but I cant stand a stiff clutch. Also if I install the driveline springs would they become leaner with time? I mean are they hard to pull just because they are brand new?

  4. Smoke out of one pipe

    That's your problem, these bikes run best with *F, not *C. In all seriousness though a 27.5 pilot isn't a bad idea but if it idles good and only have a problem on the throttle I doubt its the pilot. Could be a clogged main circuit, bad reed, or low compression. I'd start with the easiest to check and move down the list but my money is on the reed.

    Haha, I was too lazy to convert them to F xD. I will check the compression next weekend, hopefully its a small thing.

    What's the temperature outside?

    I'd pull the carbs apart, probably something stuck in the pilot. I'm a 27.5 pilot guy on about anything that's in that low of elevation, particularly if it's cold out. Some will say your mods aren't going to warrant the 27.5s, but they always worked well on the junk I was around.

    I rode all summer and currently winter. In summer it was almost 30 degrees celsius always, and now in winter it is like 13-20 degrees celsius. Not that cold, but cold enough.

    Mods?
    Elevation?
    Carb specs?
    Does it have reasonably similar compression in both cylinders?

    T5 with k&n filter stock carbs 280 main jets 25 pilots 3rd needle clip 500ft above sea and i havent really checked the compression in a long time but i dont think its gone down. I left it for a week after it was perfectly fine, then next week I started hearing the weird headers sound and only one pipe smokes.

    Hey, so my banshee is running a t5 exhaust with stock carbs, and it has perfect symmetry in its smoke when at idle. Both pipes have the same amount of smoke coming out at the same time. But then when I start going in the gears, only the left pipe (looking from behind the banshee) has smoke coming out of it. Plus the sound of it changes when it has smoke coming out of one pipe, it seems like the sound of a headers only banshee with no pipes. I checked for any openings between the headers and the pipes but didnt find any, I tried it warm and cold and it didnt work. What could be the problem?

  9. Coolant out of cylinder head?

    in Banshee Repairs and Mods

    Posted

    Here's reality

    1- Get some Splinter looking Cali to OR transplant fuck involved.

    2- Get a janitor from Canada involved

    3- Change the head gasket, but block shit off to redirect water that's been making the same path without issue for 30 fkn years.

    4- Report results




    What are you even saying dude? Block what shit off?

  12. Coolant out of cylinder head?

    in Banshee Repairs and Mods

    Posted

    So my friends banshee runs perfect and has no issues whatsoever but the only problem is that when he turns it off we hear and see coolant coming out of his cylinder head and boiling. He has had this banshee for months and it didnt have this issue, he uses regular water for coolant if that helps. Could it be a hole in the head? If so what are the repairs and how much would it approximately cost? Thanks!

  15. CPI exhaust?

    in Banshee Repairs and Mods

    Posted

    So currently, I have a T9( Yes T9 not T6) exhaust on my 06 banshee with a k&n filter with airbox without the lid. Im very tight on budget right now, as I recently bought an engine and assembling it +adding some parts that are needed will take all of my current $. I was planning on doing that in 2 weeks, but then I saw an ad for a CPI full exhaust thats been used only 2 times and looks brand new for 400$. While this will delay the engine assembly, it will certainly help me since T9 is not that good for HP ( I mostly street ride every weekend or so). What do you guys think? Should I delay the engine and buy the exhaust or should I assemble the engine and keep my T9?

    Don't need to split cases for shift star.
     
    Also you will need to split for crank.

    Really? I read somewhere on the forums that you should just replace the shift star when you split cases. And oh yeah I completely forgot about that since I usually buy a top end without crank, been running this crank for years haha which is way it is currently junk. So, if I do buy I will probably purchase these items:
    1-Driveline 392 cc cylinders ported
    2-Wiseco Pistons
    3- Coolhead with domes
    4- Trued and Welded stock crankshaft
    And yeah that looks about right.
    Also for those that helped me buy my previous engine about 2 weeks ago and are wondering, I recieved the engine but still didnt assemble it. This engine is gonna be bought by me and 3 of my buddies for our banshee since not one of us alone can buy all this stuff currently.

    So 68mm driveline cylinders, ported by driveline with their wiseco pistons? My only thing would be the stock crank. Are you having the crank rebuilt? Make sure it is trued and welded and it should be ok.
    Just don't skip over the clutch, make sure the transmission is good and the coolant system is working fine.

    My crank is junk currently and due to money purposes I am thinking of buying the stock crank from driveline as well. The clutch I will replace with also driveline STD heavy duty ones, coolant works perfectly currently and the transmission is fine. Would really love a shift star mod, but I am way too lazy to split cases haha.

    There are 3 parts to this. 
    Money + Power + Tuning = Reliability.
    If you put 100hp on stock parts, you wont be reliable.
    If you put 100hp on good aftermarket parts, but can't tune, you wont be reliable.
    You can easily run 100hp on a 392 top end for hours if you build it correctly. You will also need to tune it correctly. 

    I am thinking of running 392 CC ported cylinders with Wiseco pistons and a stock crankshaft from driveline with coolhead and 21 cc domes. Tuning shouldn’t be a problem for me. What do you say?

    So I am really confused about their relationship. For example, a well assembled stock cylinder ported well with stock pistons will it be more reliable than say a 392 cc cylinders ported and assembled well? Or would they be the same. Like would it heat up quicker because of the extra power, or will it be the same? I ride for 40 minutes and more on a completely stock engine and I am fine. If i replace it with a ported 392 would that make me unable to ride for long periods of time?

    Google “leak down test bansheehq”

    The jetting will be thrown off with air leaks, and you could “melt” the new top end

    I've been asking all around my country for a leakdown tester but couldnt find one that sells it so I figured i would order it myself.

     

    http://www.mrbabu.com/innova-3612-compression-tester-4-piece-kit.html would this work for a banshee? I'm guessing it does but I only see 3 items to block the holes when in a banshee you have 4. It does say 4 piece kit so am I missing something?

    WTF. spark plugs wear faster because of porting? I would have laughed at them.
    As for porting engines not lasting a long time. A incorrect ported engine might not last, but one that is done correct will last just as long as stock. The key to long lasting engine is the tune. Don't run it lean.

    Yeah haha I was so confused as to why it would wear faster but he spat out some random shit about porting that got me confused because of how stupid what he said was. The thing is he wants to charge almost 500 dollars for porting then another 300 dollars for a cool head. I said hell to the no and went out. As for porting, its being done by driveline performance and from what I have seen they are pretty good at it. Jetting has always been a problem for me with my banshee, just cant get it right for some reason. Im gonna hopefully do plug chops all day after breaking in my engine until I get it right. Gonna try to get a baseline from driveline as to what they estimate my jetting should be. I assume I will have to up my pilot from 25? Not sure though.
