KEVSWS6 Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Power wings. Havent heard of those. Cool head with 21cc domes still pump gas friendly. Boyesen power reed pedals or V-force reeds if you have the cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKheathen Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 power x-wings by boysen, they are flow directors that go into the front of the carbs, they are designed to give better partial throttle mixture at higher rpm's but i don't think anyone here has tried them, i posted months ago asking. i think they are geared twards larger carb setups (like>40mm) that you might find on larger sleds where they are always running higher rpms, but in all throttle positions. i don't see them having much effect on the banshee, especially for that price. i'm gonna fab some up and try them out this summer, because i don't think that they even make them @26-36mm. when you chose your reeds, pay attention to the power range they are designed for, because some of the high end reeds can greate great power on the top end, but lack on the low and mid range. chose what's right for you :thumbsup: also look into ufo's. if you search the forum for "x-wing", there is a link to them.

RIPPEN Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 VELOCITY ACCELERATORS is what I know them as.. Here they are on Jeffro's site.. http://www.farmandsandtoys.com/partdetail.asp?partid=157 I have them in my bike and I cant say for sure how much I gained as I changed up a few other things at the same time but iam sure they helped.. Jeff said he took a bike and rode it around, put them in, rode it around, and then pulled them and said there was a noticable difference.. Not to mention they are fairly cheap and easy to install.. I would recomend them, but like said above they are for 35s and up.. RIPPEN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your buying those VA's from jeffro I would just ask him while your on the phone what he recomends.. Asking here is like asking what kinda oil to run.. Get a million different answeres and set-ups.. RIPPEN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildcardracing Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 Blew a ring?? Usually when you run a bike lean it will cause the piston crown to melt or erode first. Too wide of exhaust port, too flat of exhuast port roof or one that has not been chamfered properly will cause your rings to snag and break. Uneaven exhaust port profile can cause the ring to beat the retaining pin as the ring is pushed uneavenly back into the groove. What did your piston crown and spark plug look like when you tore it down? Make sure you have a nice chamfer to the ports when it gets put back together as this will guide the ring into place and prevent snagging and also give better flow characteristics if done properly.

klemet banshee Posted January 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 the piston had a lttle piece missing from the exhaust side but it didn damage the port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
