Are there any reputable 2 stroke specialists in or around the VA, MD, DC area? I need to get my shee worked on, and would like someone experienced to handle it. Anyone have anything for me?

What exactly do you need done? If your looking to drop some cash then send your motor to a good builder. About 200 bucks shipping but well worth it in the long run. If you just have a jetting problem or somethings not running right tell us whatsup and we can probably help you out.

Thank you all for your input. Here is the situation. I bought a 2006 SE Banshee w/very low hours. I put between 8-10000 in the bike. I have trinity everything to include a 400cc Powervalve Cheetah engine kit. I run the stock crank. I did not have the space or time to assemble it all my self and I lived in FL at the time. Being in the Army I was stationed in FL on the pan handle. While there, the shop that did work on it installed and did all the work. The guy advanced my timing 6 degrees instead of four and my carbs were not even completely assembled. The top caps came off. Good thing I did not ride it hard or break it in. I do not even have 2hrs riding it since I have it assembled. I wanted to get the carbs synced and jetted for VA. I have 35mm PWK's. I run pump gas due to its availability and just want a fine tune comb run through it to make sure I do not find anything else. I live on FT Lee in Petersburg and want to get this thing going. Has potential to be a monster. I have not even started to run it since May april time frame, which is when I picked it up from the shop. Wish I was close to FAST, or Trinity.

Yea, trinity is definitely a good company, but i've heard things about there customer service and price. For instance you can get a ported 4mill cub that will run 90hp from hjr or fast for less than 2k. With that said a 400cc powervalve should be a freaking handful once you get it jetted correctly. Even though you didn't buy from them call an engine builder here on this site, you said fast, so try him. They should be able to get you pretty close to your specific jetting. Trinity can probably give you some advice too but people always say, start fat on the pilot and main, then work your way down. You have so much power you can probably afford to run it a tad bit rich just to be safe. Make sure trinity put the right domes in for pump gas, im sure you guys discussed this but you never know.

 

Go ahead and list every mod you know you have, because if the kits all you got you'd need other mods to handle that power. Also did you buy the kit and have it shipped to you? What kind of shop did the work because even 1 thing overlooked could mean a rebuild in the near future. You can do a leakdown test to check for leaks, and get a carb sync kit off one of the builders on here for cheap.

 

Hope we can help ya out in the long run. I worried myself over my rebuild but like you said as long as you go over everything twice it should fire right up and be good to go.

After talking to Trinity, I got some advice to check out East Coast ATV in PA. I called and talked to them and in a nut shell, they build tons of Trinity engines for people on the East Coast. I go up there and drop check out the shop, and it is full of drag shee's and trail bikes, power valves and non power valves. I dropped it off and he is fixing everything for me. Real good dude. I will have reviews next week when this thing comes out of the shop.
