BeeCanBanshee Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Ok so I have been working on this build for probably 5 months. A lot of time waiting on parts and money haha. Any way I bought this banshee about 8 months ago and it was rattle canned black. I mean everything. Cleaned it up and what I had was the silver plastic banshee in my link. Went on a trip with some friends and had a great time but I couldn't beat my friend on his cr250r dirt bike. That's what made me want to tear it down and rebuild. So I did... Mods before tear down- Fatties Trinity 2-1 carb +4 timing Yfz front end including brakes Laker plastics Itp beadlock rears During tear down I found that my cylinders were shot, crank was seperating and O-rings torn, idler gear chewed up because the retainer clip was in the bottom of the cases, trans bearings shot, missing engine dampeners, swing arm bearing blew apart and the bearing chewed up the carrier and sleeve inside that spaces bearings apart so this is what I did. As it sits- Repainted lakers and race cut the rears because of a crack New crank trued and welded New cylinders ported Cool head with 20cc domes 140 psi in both LRD adjustable pipes Vf2's Toomey super cooler radiator Powdercoated frame bright blue pearl JDS wide pegs & tuning forks grill New plus 4 swinger with new bearings and seals New chain,sprockets,slider and guide New trans with new bearings seals and modded shift star Painted cases hi temp black with all new seals. New steering stem bushings and seals New A-arm bushings and seals Pro taper bars Odi grips Went to stock carbs with cfm aluminum airbox Black asv levers Kill switch Billet brake hub and lock nut Billet stator cover and clutch side inserts I think it turned out great and it runs awesome. I'm leaving for another trip in a week so we will see what happens with the 250r and another guy picked up a 450r dirtbike and is talking shit so hopefully I can report back with the ass wooping they received.

And the trip kinda sucked I did whoop another guys xr400 dirtbike but shortly after I wrecked and hyper extended my knee, bent my tierod and bars. Damn stump came outta nowhere.
