jrod Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 Been awhile since i have been in the Banshee game. Been building cars last few years. I found a bike local on CL that i am picking up tonight. this is from his ad. Ran great was really fast until i was too good of a friend and let a buddy ride it sucked water in and bent one of the rods. I pulled the top end off and it is fine all it will need is a new crank dropped in and new gaskets. I have a new clutch and the gaskets for that. it has 38mm carbs k&n air filters, CPI full exhaust , plus 3 swing arm , cool head,nerf bars, good tires , good plastic. All it needs is a crank and it will be ready to ride If it truly only does need a crank, would the hot rods crank be worth the money? I am looking to have a 70whp bike or some where near that. And how hard is it to replace the crank? i have re built the upper half, but never got into the lower half. Quote
CFH87 Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 Depends on the motor if its stock cyls or not or if its a cub. Either way its going to need a bore/hone new pistons and a crank at the minimum. How much is he asking and post up the add so we can take a better look. Quote

bansheesrtoys Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 i did the same thing a few yrs back, and cracked the piston skirt at the bottom. if you do re-use the pistons check them out VERY VERY good. but i personally would replace them. Quote
Strm Trpr Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 If you want 70whp, I'd sell whatever you can off it and call Andy at M&M ATV and buy a 4mil Serval motor package. They are good for 80whp on pump gas with as cast ports. 70whp is going to require high comp., heavy porting and race gas with a stock stroke motor. Quote
Dicklez Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 Out in the east thats not a bad price with all the goodies. If its not beat and needs all new bushings and all that nickle and dime shit. Good luck. Quote

Larry's Shee Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 Let us know if it's just a crank, .......... or more Quote
jrod Posted September 21, 2011 Author Report Posted September 21, 2011 Let us know if it's just a crank, .......... or more Will do, i am sure it is more. Quote
jrod Posted September 21, 2011 Author Report Posted September 21, 2011 Refresh my Memory, this bike has a Hot Rods Crank. With stock cylinders that are ported. What is the gain, from the hot rods crank? Quote
CFH87 Posted September 22, 2011 Report Posted September 22, 2011 There is no gain to be had if your just replacing whats already in there. Quote
