evro Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 Where did u get an 2008 banshee at? Thought they stopped making them in 2006... canada, australia, parts of europe i think still as well and other countries....although they just announced that 08 is the last year in Canada, i dont know if they'll be selling them elsewhere still or if Yamaha is going to retire it finally?

balistc Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 Honestly, why do you need a tacho on your Banshee? Personally, I can hear my revs so I know when to shift. Also, do you ever think you'll look at it while your belting down a trail? I know I don't take my eyes off the trail when I'm riding, no way I'd look at a tacho.

kev87 Posted April 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 personal preference balistc. i dont really trail ride, more along the lines of speedway and beachdrags. see if ur slightly out with ur changes thats precious time on the track. my banshee makes max power at 8000rpm and torques already starting to drop off by then and u cant just hear and sumtimes feel wen to change. thats y i want a tacho. i put about 8 or 9 wraps on it and it dosnt work. ive tried the orange (negative) and the black wire(positive). i think im going to get a trailtech vapor, least it has everything....
