mhoksch Posted March 31, 2012 Report Posted March 31, 2012 So I bought my banshee about a month ago. It supposedly has a 4mil in it but I haven't pulled it apart to check yet. I'm planning on rebuilding it since compression is 120-110. If it's not already a 4mil, it will be soon. I currently have some rusty ass FMF Fatties on it, I don't really care about the looks since I'll be trail riding in the mud alot. Just wondering if the fatties will be sufficient or I will need new pipes when I put it back together? Quote
Nightmare Posted March 31, 2012 Report Posted March 31, 2012 if it is a 4mill i would go with something else. ive never heard of fmfs on a 4mill, i have heard good things about pro circuits. if its in your budget, change the pipes. Quote
sheerider11 Posted March 31, 2012 Report Posted March 31, 2012 I do the same type of riding. I'm running T-5's. Not the best but it's not a half bad pipe. Like mentioned pro circuits are good to. I'd recommended changing them Quote

toytech Posted March 31, 2012 Report Posted March 31, 2012 is it ported at all? I run fmf fattys on my 4mil fast dune port, for a while, it run good but lacked on top end. put R2s on it and wow. Quote
mhoksch Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Posted April 1, 2012 when i got it the guy said it was 4mil, ported, and many other claims. already found out it was NOT +4 on the timing so I don't know what else is true or not. Once I rebuild it, it will be ported for sure. Quote
dave5.0 Posted April 1, 2012 Report Posted April 1, 2012 Exactly what kind of riding are you gonna do? What are you looking to get out of it? Are you looking to be the fastest guy on the block or be able to lug it around in the woods? I've gone fron fatties to pro circuits to Vito's. Didn't notice much between the first two but big different between the pc and the Vito's. A lot faster with the drag style pipes but noticed a big loss of low end. I remember thinking it was gonna suck trail riding with the drag type setup. Just not as much fun to lug around. So there is nothing written that says one pipe or the other "won't work". Any of em will work. You just need to decide what you want to do with bike and use a sutible pipe and if you get further porting do the same. Quote
