2SLO Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 Hey everyone. I just got a 99 banshee... in a bunch of pieces. Aparently, the engine had an oil starved piston, and the previous owner took it all apart. This is my first fourwheeler, and I didnt even get to take it apart so that makes me alittle shaky. The cylinder walls have no scoring on them, so Im just going to get a stock bore piston kit, and go from there. Ive been building all kinds of turbo engines for 7 years, but this will be my first two stroke. With all the info on here, im pretty sure i can handle it. Thanks in advance for all the help im gonna need! Quote

Titan up Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 (edited) Welcome to the HQ! Make sure to check the diameter of the cylinders, before you buy your pistons because they may not be at the stock bore size. Edited September 3, 2008 by Titan up Quote
98_banshee_newbie Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 Welcome and the one thing that helped me out the most was the clymers manual a must for any banshee. The best 20-30 bucks you can buy in all seriousness this will help you out a lot when putting this thing together. Quote
