my stock banshee will stomp a 400ex with a 440 kit. they are fast and have alot of power. they wont compare to a piped banshee tho. stock one maybe. plus they are a good 4 wheeler for the money. u can spend 5500 for one instead of 7000 for a yfz450. if u arent just all about mx then predator is a good choice. for mx id have a yfz450. also my predator will beat piped raptors.

check to see if something is holding up ur float. i had the same problem with the needle and seat. pulled that out and had something in there. get an inline fuel filter, havent had that problem since.

eyeball engineering. standard length i think i pad about 575. i like them alot and they are adjustable and such.
-
i just cleaned mine up, primered them and sprayed them with gloss black. they look good and havent had any chipping or anything so far.

Shift riding gear. Thor boots. Never wore Fox cuz around here its really trendy and every homo on the street wears it. i like going up to ppl and asking them what they ride. response most of the time is a dumbfounded look like ride what???
-
there were alot of ppl sayin that it would vibrate so bad that i wouldnt be able to ride it. well they were wrong. mine doesnt vibrate anymore than a cr500 dirtbike. maybe its the way i put the engine in, who knows. but yea the power is rediculous.

i am the one who did the swap with a cr500 engine. here is my site. http://dirtriders.freewebspace.com/photo3.html its got alot of up close pictures and what not. mine is set up for hillclimbing and trailriding and i wouldnt trade it for anything. i think it could very easily be set up for any type of riding. its a fairly straight forward swap if you have some knowledge of how things work and you are gonna have to have a welder and torch. check the site and if u have any questions let me know.

i heard from a friends dads uncle whos youngest son works for yamaha r and d in japan(hes japanese) that there will be a 3500cc 10 cylinder banshee for the year 2010. im pretty sure hes telling the truth.
-
oh i have had tons of time on it. its not a drag banshee. its a hillclimber and trailrider. it will climb anything. ive had it some some steep ass hills and its got tons of power. i have drag raced it just messin around and it will go, but the problem is that i jave it geared really low for trails and shit and all it wants to do is spin the tires. on pavement ill take out in 2nd and itll spin all the way thru 2nd and itll spin when i hit third. i think it would be a pretty good drag bike if u have some tires that really hooked up well and changed the gearing around. you have to shift really fast with the cr500 engine. it doesnt wrap out like a banshee engine does. if you dont shift u just lose power and it wont go anymore. if u have any other questions hit me up.

i went to my local metal yard and spent $3.52 on material to build a grab bar for my predator. it looks almost identical to the prm ones. i like mine better because its steel not some cheap ass aluminum thatll bend first time i lay it back.
-
i run dual rate elkas on my front. i like them alot. i have neve bottomed them out. i mostly trail ride and they soak up everything my trails have to offer and its smoe pretty mean shit. i think i paid right around 800 for them. they are dual rate fully adjustable with piggyback reservoirs. id say try some elkas.
-
when i got my new boots i hosed them down with water and walked around in them for a while. if you have some time just walk around in them flexing them and such. the only way they will really break in though is by riding in them.

ROCKYMOUNTAIN ATV!!!!!
-
ive ridden one. i think it would be a pretty decent mx quad but as for dragging the banshee will stomp it. its just something totally different than a banshee. its got alot different powerband. they look pretty cool with all the chrome stuff tho.

yes you have to take the cushions out. so you are fine there. if you are leaking oil in that spot u might have twisted the gasket puttin it on. id say the only way to check would be to take the side case off. but thats gonna require you to drain the oil. better to check than have no oil.

front sprockets from rockymountainatv run like 7 bucks i think.

i paid 150 bucks for mine to be done silvervein here in missouri. it was like 125 for the pc and 25 for the sandblasting. it looks really good and holds up really well.

has any one else noticed a pretty rapid decline in image posting ever since the upgrades? i think this is because you have to have them hosted at a site somewhere right? correct me if im wrong, becuase if there is a way to post them like we used to i dont know it, and would like to be informed of it.i find myself goin over to bluetraxx sseein as how everyday they have tons of new pictures and such up. i like the bansheehq, but it seems that it may have gone down a little since the upgrades. just my thoughts and wondering if anyone else thought the same. later, tyler
