Hey guys I'm kinda new to the Banshee stuff, and was wondering what kind of power I can expect to get out of my new project. I got this bike and it was locked up so I put a new Hot Rod crank in it, and WSM pistons. Its a stock stroke and the bore is 65.5, it has a Cool head with 18cc domes and the jugs have been ported. It has Pro-Curcuit Platinum pipes and silencers. 30mm OKO carbs, Pro flow K&n with outerwear, no air lid. Thats all I can think of right now. If there is something I missed just ask. Thanks for your responses and input!!!

Without knowing what type of portwork was done, I can only make a vague assumption. 18cc domes, you're probably running race gas. Pro Circuit pipes, you've probably got a low-mid port job (or if you have a radical port then the PCs will hold you back). Running an air box holds you back a little if the motor really needs to breath.

 

55-60hp if you're tuned right. If everything is mismatched, then possibly a little lower.

What are some of the better pipes out there? The port work (to me) looks pretty extensive. Yes I ran race gas with a 40:1 synthetic oil. And the timing is advanced 4 degrees. I want this bike to make the most power possible of course. And the guy I got it from, got it from someone else so the history on the motor is a mystery. I may take the cyclinders by the local shops tomorrow and ask them.

Pro Circuits are great pipes, but they are a more low-mid pipe. They do well on top for what they are IMO. If your looking for more I love CPI's and have always had great luck with them. I've heard good things about Shearers too.

 

You could be anywhere between 50-60 with that set up I would guess, but its really hard to say. I've seen stock stroke ported bikes that are set up correctly hit 65HP with stock carbs.
