  3. are the intakes connected or seperate? Ive seen intakes that are connecte and the cross over is inside, you cant see it from the outside.
  4. Yer killing me!! I raced my buddies piped 450 with my 96 shee (see mods below) and he beat me by 2 bike lenghts up comp hill in sand mountain nevada I just put a milled head (150 psi) , delta v-force reeds and port and polish on my 02 and Im gonna try to beat him with that. Just cant let the 4 choke beat me.!!
  5. te first time I took my wife she sounded like the 18 year old, although it was a 14 hr drive to glamis. Then ther just had to be the 50 mile an hr winds and about an inch of rain in 5 seconds. I thought she was gonna kill me!!. # years later she has a banshee and loves It!! lucky me
  6. If loco's trick dont work they actually make a tool for seperating ball joints. It looks loke a big fork with tw0 taperd prongs. you slide the ball joint between the prongs and wack it with a hammer and the tapered prongs drive the joint out. you can find them aat any auto parts store Im sure, and fairly cheap. Its a good tool to have.
  7. thanks for the help, I threw them on and fired her up today. Going through the break in process now. Cant wait to let loose!
  8. Im rebuilding my shee and I ordered a wiseco piston kit and it came with a cometic gasket set. Im used to toyota gaskets that have a sealant on them! Do I need to put yamabond or any sealant on the base gaskets or head gasket? the base gasket are paper and the head is tin? or aluminum? Thanks for yer help
  9. The HQ has helped me out alot with my shee, when I bought it 3 years ago I didnt know shit about it. It was nice stumbling over this site and getting help fom people, even if they were 13. I ve read some stupid replies to but i just scroll down until I find what Im lookin for.
  10. I have a shee with holeshots and a shee with realtors and the hole shots hook up a lot better than the realtors but they are much softer, dont see them lasting too long.
  11. I used yamalube 24-1 for the break in period then went to 32- 1
  12. My kickstarter jammed up and it happened to be the bottom half of my left piston was down in the crank. Probably not the case for you though, hopefully!
  13. I ve always hoped that athey wouldnt change the looks of the banshee, Its a classic! The raptor front is about the worst thing they coUld do
  14. I went up to Sand Mountain, Nevada for Easter weekend and broke a piston skirt the first night. I was just gonna hone er out and throw a set of wisecos in it but I was having nightmares about my buddies piped 450 kicking my ass up comp hill. I want to get my jugs ported and polished and my head milled. I was wondering if any of you have had work done by Speed Tech (Mission Yamaha in Laguna Niguel SoCal). They have an article in the August 2002 issue of Dirt Wheels, Speed Tech modified Banshee. They say they can get 60 hp out of their motor mods with T5's, k&N's, delta v-force reeds with 320-340 main jets, 30 pilots and blaster nozzles. I wanted to see if I could get some feedback b4 I sent my motor off... Thanks
  15. Now, someday when you have a house with anice mailbox you put up some little focker will come bust it up!! Dont worry, every one has done some stupid shit once in there lives...or twice!
  16. i have 1 Banshee and plan on buying another for my wife b4 our next dune trip.
