Need action shots for the BansheeHQ Home Page

I do, when things are funny...

Gassing is the same thing as having no cardio. That's not rocket science. Also, the ref was right in not stopping that fight. I have watched it 3 times now. Carwin doesn't land any major shots while he has Brock on the ground. They were mostly to his arms and forearms. Hardly a good reason to stop a fight. Plus, Brock kept working. He was moving around, kicking Carwin off and letting the ref know that he was OK. Brock has a solid chin. That was really his only questionable area. He took punches from the hardest hitting HW out there and came back to win. Every HW in the UFC right now is wondering how in the hell they are going to beat Brock. Carwin just helped to debunk the one hit wonder theory. Carwin was Brock's biggest threat. JDS and Cain are far too small to be able to handle Brock's size and strength.

Rear Brake Lever Hits Direct Drive Lock-Up Cover
locogato11283 replied to Driggs's topic in Banshee Repairs and Mods
bend it out if you can. i run the roll design pegs so bending it out was not an option. i had to heat mine up and bend it to make it work. -
There are guys that can fight like that the entire fight and never gas, so yes it is a cardio issue. How can you possibly know what it's like to gas when you've never gone past the first round? All the training in the world can't help you if you don't know what to expect.

13 is the smallest I would go in front. The 12 is a pretty tight turn for the chain. You can fine tune your gearing with the rear sprockets.

Anyone who thinks that Carwin doesn't have a cardio problem is fooling themselves. He CLEARLY has a cardio problem. He has never been out of the first round. How do you even game plan for going past the first round if you've never experienced it. They say that the training is the hardest part of the fight, but clearly Carwin never anticipated going out of the first round. He flat out gassed himself out. To think anything else is ridiculous. I called this fight from the beginning. I said that if it went out of the first round that Carwin would lose and he did. I knew he would gas.

Motor City ATV is run by "minkia38" here on the site. Send him a PM and see what you can get worked out. If no answer, let me know and I will see what I can do.

Chromoly is obviously the metal of choice, but I have bent several chromoly arms doing what I do. I then had the arms gusseted and never had another issue. For a while I was building and selling mild steel arms with the gusset and never had one complaint. That was on a 1"x2" square tube swingarm. I now run a Stellar chromoly arched swingarm. It is holding up very well to the beatings I have been giving it. It has a roundhouse carrier which is a must when buying an aftermarket arm. My feeling is that if you can't afford a roundhouse swingarm now, save your money and buy one later. They are just so much more reliable and easy to use. There are far too many good arms out there these days to buy something that's junk. A lot of times price will most definitely tell the quality of a swingarm. Do you really want your ass riding on something of questionable strength and reliability? I sure don't.

i agree with everything said... there are some interesting fights coming up in the next year in the HW division.

that was pretty annoying.

Guys, here is the newly redesigned motor support used exclusively for the Chariot Performance bearing support. It will not work with any other stator covers. I redesigned the part after finding that the old design would bend the bearing support. The new support is taller so that it hits further up on the support to a stronger part of the bearing support. Posted below are 2 pictures. The first picture is the new support CNCed by JDS Customs out of billet aluminum. They turned out really nice. I have tested the hell out of the old design and they work wonders. It will keep the motor from pulling back in the frame under a hard load. This is not a "fix" for Jerry's bearing support. His support works very well as designed to keep the transmission from flexing inside the cases under a load. This piece is to keep the motor itself from twisting in the frame which can cause chains to break and be thrown. I have 2 of these to sell. The price is $65 shipped and it includes hardware. Bolt it on and go. New Support Old Support

Leben has been looking pretty good lately. I mean, his fight game looks sloppy but you can't underestimate what he can do.
-
Damn, I was almost spot on. I picked 2nd round but I said TKO. Nice sub by Brock. Like I said, if Carwin didn't finish in the first he would be fucked. They guy had nothing after the first 4 minutes. We also learned that Brock can take a punch from the hardest hitting guy in the game and recover quite well. It's going to be tough for anyone to beat him, especially with his underrated ground game.

Bigger motors pull fuel more efficiently. I run 39mm PWK on my 18mm DM and I run 160 mains and 45 pilots.

I talked to them a couple months or so ago. I don't remember who I talked to but it was through e-mail. I gave them prices and the features and never heard back from them.
-
421 cub right? Chances are you're noticing the effects of going to a bigger carb. Does it sit and idle fine? Start up ok? What do the plugs look like? That's about as close of jetting you're gonna get on that motor with those carbs. We always ran 45 pilots and 160 mains in our 4mm cubs.

I have talked with them about sponsorship on BansheeHQ. They blew me off.
-
id do what NYUK said, but instead of letting it idle you should hold it wide open. it will take less time to get it clean.
-
Yea, I suppose I should have stated that this is not a "fix" for Jerry's bearing support. His support works very well as designed to keep the transmission from flexing inside the cases under a load. This piece is to keep the motor itself from twisting in the frame which can cause chains to break and be thrown.

thats hot.

yea, i had some of those last year. they arent as noticeable now but the injury to my knee while getting my banshee tats is still very noticeable.

You have to break this one down.. Standup - Carwin. Hard hitting, good punch placement, good chin (Gonzaga fight). Wrestling - Lesnar. Not even close in my opinion. Lesnar is the much more decorated wrestler. Cardio - Lesnar. He's gone into more later rounds than Carwin. I think he can keep up the pace longer. Size - Lesnar. I have heard reports that Brock will not be cutting weight for this fight and come in right at 265. Carwin is apparently coming down from about 290. While Carwin may weigh more, Lesnar still has the overall size on him. Speed - Lesnar. The guy is fast. He can move very well and will be able to stay away from Carwin's big bombs if he needs to. Explosiveness - Lesnar. The guy is big and can get himself moving very quickly. Athleticism - Lesnar. The guy is the better all around athlete. Not taking anything away from Carwin, but Brock is like a bigger version of GSP. Almost a complete package that can and will execute his game plan at will. I am taking Brock in this. I don't think ring rust will be an issue. He has been training with Randy who we all know is a master game planner. I look for Brock to stay away from the big punches. He will get inside quick and go for the take down where he will work the ground and pound. I am thinking Brock by TKO in the 2nd. The later this fight goes the worse Carwin's chances get. He needs to finish in the first or second round or I believe he will gas.
