johnny boy Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I'd say if you're happy with your motor, and your bike is pulling hard, AND you have no big mods in store for the near future, LEAVE YOUR PIPES ALONE. Trust me. It's a vicious cycle... First you'll get the T5's... then you'll want to "port just a bit" to match them. BUt then the tuner will tell you to ride his bike. Then its over. You'll be hooked... You'll be looking at aggressive porting, new pistons, a stroker crank, larger carbs, a better clutch, a Cool head... See what I mean? Happy with it? Leave it alone... P.S. ---> I speak from experience... I made the mistake of riding two WildCard bikes... This is the truth... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKheathen Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 by "flow rate", i basically mean how much air is flowing through the motor. there are different reasons that it might pull differntly. maintenance- basics, like airfilter, trans oil, chain lube, silencer packing, etc, and JETTING. fuel age and condition/mix. and how you ride/sit, then again, there is that "used to it" factor, lol..........which stems into $$$$$$$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camatv Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 are the plugs getting fouled? if your riding it that much is the air filter getting dirty? these bikes are a LOT of fun BUT you need to maintain them. banshee's are like crack you get a lil taste adn then you just want more and there is nothing you can do you'll sell everything you have to make that pile of steel faster and better than your friends. they are great..
