madmax31 Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 This is the third banshee I have owned and the first one with a boost bottle on it. The bike runs great when i open it up but is kinda a dog in the trails. Wondering if this [boost bottle] is robing power or thottle response ? I'm new to the site but i bleed banshee.

Angel ripper Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 (edited) No one knows for if it does anythig or not, but for 30 bucks you get some eye candy. leave it on, it don't hurt anything and eichner had it on his 7 times winning pont de vaux DUNCAN banshee, just a thought Edited March 16, 2009 by Angel ripper
killshee Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 u gotta be new to post this shit. ur gunna rly hear about it.... :down:
magz Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 leave it on, it don't hurt anything apparently you've never seen them viberate and tear intake boots and lean a motor out.
Bill Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 A boost bottle is no good if your running stock intakes, trust me it cracks them all to shit making an air leak. Ive had first hand experience with that.
quikshee Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 and eichner had it on his 7 times winning pont de vaux DUNCAN banshee, just a thought And I'm sure eichner was using stock rubber intake boots on his 7 time champion. :ermm:

DallasGDub Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 I think he would have been using this, since he was with Duncan.

You are a fucking loser man you need to take your boost bottle and your god damned bumper and jump in a lake. As for the boos bottle robbing throttle response I would look elsewhere maybe too rich on the main or pilot, faulty reeds, low compression, there really is a bunch of things that could cause that but I doubt if the bottle is one of them.
Angel ripper Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 (edited) apparently you've never seen them viberate and tear intake boots and lean a motor out. nope, never have, and ive had plenty of shees, all with boost bottles, not one ripped that statement was made by one person and then all the others followed. did it happen to someone,, probably, but ive never seen it and for people that say they don't do anything,,,, post some proof, and for the ones that say it works,, post proof Edited March 17, 2009 by Angel ripper
Angel ripper Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 I think he would have been using this, since he was with Duncan. yep, thats it
2003LimitedBanshee Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 This is the age old debate and WHO really knows? I have one, plenty of people don't. I've been running one for four seasons, no issues at all. I would say proper installation, i.e. is it fully seated, and good maintenance on your bike are going to keep you from cracking the intake boots. If the bike sits out in the sun, gets coated with carb cleaner because of reckless "cleaning" etc. I'd be much more worried about the intake boots. The intake cracking argument is to me, like my four stroke buddies who say you have to rebuild a banshee every season; I must be the exception to the norm as far as luck, or there are other factors playing in?
AKheathen Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 the reason some bottles crack intake boots, is because of the spacing. it is supposed to be @ 5" center to center. i have a white bros. that is off by over 1/4" (not installed). The tors tops are bigger culprits of weight borne fatigue, IMHO
Michael Jackson Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 fuck them, i watched my friend sit there with him thumb up his ass while in the middle of nowhere IN PA tryin to ride, tryin to figure out why both his intakes had huge rips all around where the boost bottle plugs into.. if there is no performance gain , i just dont see the point, its just soemthing for evyeyrone to point and laugh at, even the 4 strokes know what they are
