dont know which direction to go with motor

[johnzboy]

I need to by a set of cylinders. $150-250

Talked to site sponsors about porting. $300

Bore, hone and pistons. $300

 

I found some 400cc cheetah cub cylinders with pistons and gaskets for $1000

 

This is a play/trail bike. These two options are close in price. Which is a better platform for what I'm wanting?I have no pipes, reeds, carbs yet so I can match what I get.

The cub cylinders will be less enjoyable for a strictly trail/play motor. They are a more high end cylinder suited better for dunes and drag. It can be made to work but it might not be the best way to go about it if you are new to the banshee motor platform. I'd say do a 4mm crank in your stock ported cylinders and have a real kick ass set up done by a good builder. But if you need a set of cylinders and are gonna buy some, there is the very trailable Serval Cub
