dco3100 Posted September 25, 2009 Report Posted September 25, 2009 Iv'e never heard of the plastic gear breaking but im pretty sure it has happened. Just wondering if its something to maybe consider... http://cgi.ebay.com/BANSHEE-WATER-PUMP-DRIVE-GEAR-DRAG-RACE-CARB-CHROME_W0QQitemZ170387229675QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item27abdecbeb&_trksid=p4999.c0.m14#ht_500wt_924 Quote

I'm curious what the weight diffences are between the plastic and aluminum ones...or if more or less weight would even make a diff. Brandon (blowit) makes these if I am not mistaken. look:http://bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=121179&st=0&p=1052184&fromsearch=1entry1052184 Quote
HiRoller Posted September 25, 2009 Report Posted September 25, 2009 Wish I would have heard of this a few months ago when my gear broke and I couldn't find an aftermarket replacement. Quote
Whitbread Posted September 27, 2009 Report Posted September 27, 2009 About bloody time! After having broke a gear almost every year, I'll be picking one of these up . Quote

OK, maybe .001HP. The price to be paid if the plastic one breaks is a different matter... Thanks B Quote
dco3100 Posted October 5, 2009 Author Report Posted October 5, 2009 k, got 2 on the way, guess we'll see! Quote
blowit Posted October 16, 2009 Report Posted October 16, 2009 I did stumble onto our tech data for that gear this morning. We have the OEM gear weighed at 16 grams and our billet replacement gear at 34 grams. This a little over a 1/2 oz more weight if someone is counting.. Thanks Brandon Mull Engineering Quote
Z400Banshee Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 can you use these with straight cut gears? Quote
sprinklerman Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 can you use these with straight cut gears? you have a straight cut water-pump drive gear?? Quote
