Boston Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 it all depends on the type riding you do. pretty much you port it for trail, dunes, or drag. Quote
marcboy62 Posted March 26, 2011 Author Report Posted March 26, 2011 ive heard about a play port, whats that? Quote
Boston Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 theres a million different names for every type of porting.. what do you want to do with your banshee thats the easy question. then you port it for that Quote
gotta_goatsfast Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 This is a hard one to answer because every builder has a different idea of what "playing" is. Some will port your engine to be strong in the midrange, some will port it to favor the mid top, and yet others will try to give you a good broad powerband that does great in most areas but does not excell in any one area. First, you need to be honest with yourself with what you really ride in. There are a lot of guys that post up that want a drag port because they hear it gives them max power but in reality they ride mostly trails and screwing around in private property. Most builders will talk them out of it, because it is going to lead to disapointment. A lot of guys want to ride with their buddies on the trails but also take some of their egos away in a straight line. And they need to understand that a drag port will certainly make full use of the other guys roost protector, its simply not going to work well in any other type of riding. Also, what some fail to realise is that a mid-top ported banshee is STILL going to embarrass all but the very serious 4 stroke in a drag race and still run awesome in most any condition except for tight technical trails which you would benefit more from a wood or MX type of port. In any event, this is one of those converstations best reserved for your builder... Quote
BigRed350x Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 Simple answer... Call Kevin at Herr Jugs Racing and he will go over what type of riding you do and will get you hooked up with the right port job for what you're doing with it. Quote
