PA-rider Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 ok so i was talking to my friend and he has a 97 banshee he doesn't ride any more. he said he would sell it to me for 1200.. it has a cpi pipes in frames, paul turner cool head 18cc domes, full P&P from east coast atv. wiseco piston rings. has new axle,carrier and swing arm, 18inch rear razrs and much more. the only thing i didn't like is its set up for 112 octane fuel, what would it take to run it on pump gas and make it a trail quad.. and i sold my other banshee that's why i wanted another ..

quikshee Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 If you wanna run pump gas swap out the 18cc domes for 20-22cc domes anc check your compression, if it's 150 or less you can run pump gas. Quote
papa_smurf49319 Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 lol thats waht i was thinking, really shitty deal. No seriously this is the deal of a lifetime for around my area, you can get nothing but shit around here for under 2500! Quote

PA-rider Posted October 7, 2009 Author Report Posted October 7, 2009 (edited) ok, thanks for the replys. i have some 22cc domes new if i snag it i may just swap em in. wont i have to retard the timing?. Edited October 7, 2009 by PA-rider Quote
PA-rider Posted October 9, 2009 Author Report Posted October 9, 2009 ehh i just picked up the shee, i didn't run it yet but i did a comp test and both cylinders are pushing 150psi i guess that may be right at the border for 112right?. cause i know when his friend built it, it felt like it had alot of comp i am guessing its a little low for them domes. ill run it tomorrow and do another comp test and see what she has..

ellison445 Posted October 9, 2009 Report Posted October 9, 2009 Nope, thats pump gas!! ehh i just picked up the shee, i didn't run it yet but i did a comp test and both cylinders are pushing 150psi i guess that may be right at the border for 112right?. cause i know when his friend built it, it felt like it had alot of comp i am guessing its a little low for them domes. ill run it tomorrow and do another comp test and see what she has..

ClimbAnyHill Posted October 10, 2009 Report Posted October 10, 2009 Great deal! Wanna trade CPI's for T5's? Quote
PA-rider Posted October 11, 2009 Author Report Posted October 11, 2009 Great deal! Wanna trade CPI's for T5's? ehh ill have to think about that climb.. you dont like your t5s?.. Quote
someone82 Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 Great deal! Wanna trade CPI's for T5's? Damn you beat me to the question I was going to ask... Either way that sounds like a smoking deal you got on that shee! Quote
shogs Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 If you plan on making it into a trail quad you'll have to ditch the pipes, put on those 22cc domes you said you had just make sure there for the same head, and if it has reeds there probably vf3's so you'd have to swap those out for reeds with better low-mid power. What kind of carbs does it have on it? Also those cpi's are worth more than your average pipe just so you know. Quote
PA-rider Posted October 11, 2009 Author Report Posted October 11, 2009 i think it has boysen reeds, ik there not v force, they are stock carbs with the tors elim tops on em, i was thinking of just rebuilding it and just run it the way it is, or take off the drag ported jugs and send out my spares and have em trail ported and get another pipe. so it would be a little more trail friendly. i am gonna pull it all apart and check out the cylinder walls and make sure it doesn't have a stroker in it, and ill have to hit up a engine builder. would the 2into 1 carb set up be any good for my set up now?.

dragbanshee Posted October 19, 2009 Report Posted October 19, 2009 Nice find, the T5s are great for trails with the right mods. Hit me up if you decide to get rid of the drag ported juggs. Quote
