Hour Meter

[Benn350]

Hi everyone, i am doing a top end rebuild on my Banshee and was wondering if it is possible to fit a Hour Meter to the bike and if so is it easy to install? How many hours roughly should u get out of a top end rebuild? Benn.

its as easy as taking a shit.

 

 

one wire comes off the hour meter, you wind the end of that wire around your spark plug lead like 6 times then zip tie it on (so it doesnt un wind) then mount your hour meter some where.

 

yamaha reckon 30hrs for a rebuild, i say shut up yamaha.

 

rebuild when the bike starts loosing its edge and hard cold starting and low compression.

or when a rod is sticking out the side, thats also a good indication.

That whole hour measuring top end rebuild thing is bullshit. You just ride it until it blows up or the compression drops more than 10-15 psi from what it started out at.

cheers, yeah has been hard to start when cold and has not much compression so time for a top end rebuild

No shit??? I keep track of my hours but didn't use it as a guideline for when it needed anything, I average about 200 hours on a topend...
