#1JUANstunna Posted July 10, 2011 Report Posted July 10, 2011 Its a stocker. Skies the limit! Looks good though. What kinda riding do you do and that will help everyone point you in a good directions. Also do you have a budget? Quote
barahonapr Posted July 10, 2011 Author Report Posted July 10, 2011 yea its stock for sure. been putting on little things every pay check.. bought the grips, heel guards, exhaust hanger that one just recently broke, new sprockets and chain.. so yea.. i ride open trails..not woods.. and i like racing on the pavement.. i have had a problem when i first start it up it doesnt want to idle and it was backfiring from the right pipe today when i put on the hangers.. i do know i definately need a new air filter and to reclean my carbs so im sure thats the problem Quote
bennny Posted July 10, 2011 Report Posted July 10, 2011 Try replacing the spark plugs and see if that helps. Is that the all black special edition? Like the 04? I love those.... Quote
barahonapr Posted July 10, 2011 Author Report Posted July 10, 2011 Yup 05 all black..heel guards aren't because I just bought those off a member on here recently but I will b powdercoating them. Quote
SheezFast02 Posted July 11, 2011 Report Posted July 11, 2011 First thing I'd recommend you do is pick up a Clymer manual. It covers everything and is a great tool when something's going wrong or even just general maintenance. Then pipe and jet it. You'll love how it wakes up compared to stock. Welcome to the addiction Quote
barahonapr Posted July 11, 2011 Author Report Posted July 11, 2011 Oh I've been addicted to banshees since growing up in Puerto rico..that's all we rode but now I have one and was wandering about that idle ...although im buying that clymer manual Quote
06specialedition Posted July 11, 2011 Report Posted July 11, 2011 Nice! I like the black. Like said above, sky is the limit. I would start with all your basic bolt ons like pipes, filters, cool head, timing, reeds, etc. Quote
AC-BANSHEE Posted July 11, 2011 Report Posted July 11, 2011 (edited) Nice! I like the black. Like said above, sky is the limit. I would start with all your basic bolt ons like pipes, filters, cool head, timing, reeds, etc. +1 That will help in a performance aspect, what about visuals? are you going to cut the fenders? I know everybody does it, but i personally like the look of it, and the "all black" deal would look sick! Edited July 11, 2011 by AC-BANSHEE Quote
barahonapr Posted July 11, 2011 Author Report Posted July 11, 2011 No I actually like the stock fenders but guess that might change down the line..as for the black..that's what I have in mind Quote
barahonapr Posted July 12, 2011 Author Report Posted July 12, 2011 Are Toomey t5 pipes good for mid range and top end? And im also having a problem with my carnal if anyone wants to help..Its under the jetting forum..thnx Quote
slowpokerrr Posted July 27, 2011 Report Posted July 27, 2011 Are Toomey t5 pipes good for mid range and top end? And im also having a problem with my carnal if anyone wants to help..Its under the jetting forum..thnx Good looking bike in person too...feels like i got most of the kinks outta mine this weekend. The T5's are perfect for our riding not much in the way of tight trails... Quote
SheeManWomenHater Posted July 31, 2011 Report Posted July 31, 2011 toomey t5's are very nice pipes.. jet and pipe it, you wont be sorry.. i also put a different front gear in mine to a smaller tooth gear.. gets me throught the gears quick. i never lose a race Quote
bigblockbanshee Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 If it were me I'd leave the plastic alone. I'm not a terribly big fan of cut fenders although on some color schemes the cut look seems to look better. But, if I had a chance to have one as stock as that one I'd leave it that way. I'm just a sucker for a nice looking stock 'shee I guess. Quote
JdmNinja Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 tell me what you guys think..and what i can do to improve it.. Nice Shee. Love the black look. will look better with some T5s. Quote
