draggins10 Posted July 23, 2013 Author Report Posted July 23, 2013 Well I got bored and started taking things apart and this is what I found. Also I didnt completely drain all the coolant (forgot the 2 coolant bolts on each side under the exhaust) before taking off the head. So some coolant probably went down the cylinder. Is that a problem? PM sleeper06 or send me a pm and ill give you his NumberHe's in Seaford LI and he's the man fuck those dealerships, dudes are clueless Thank you. If my friend cant help me by this weekend I will def get in contact with him Quote
sleeper06 Posted July 24, 2013 Report Posted July 24, 2013 If you need help give a me a call,the shops around here forced me to start doing my own thing,I have built tons of banshee motors and love anything two stroke,I have local guys for all machining purposes,you should have leak down tested that motor before tearing into,just because you change parts doesn't mean yo will fix the problem I see it all the time.dumping money without knowing a cause can get expensive 1 Quote
Starwriter Posted July 24, 2013 Report Posted July 24, 2013 Man, that's ugly!!! Something definitely beat the shit out of it. Possibly lower rod bearing pieces. Looks like time for a complete motor build. Quote

draggins10 Posted July 24, 2013 Author Report Posted July 24, 2013 BTW I did a compression test about 5days before this happened and had good compression in both cylinders. 140psi Quote
sleeper06 Posted July 24, 2013 Report Posted July 24, 2013 Where did you get it from or did you always have it,and damn your real close one town away Quote
draggins10 Posted July 25, 2013 Author Report Posted July 25, 2013 I got it over the winter from some guy in queens. Do you do work at a shop or at your house? Quote
sheerider11 Posted July 25, 2013 Report Posted July 25, 2013 His shophouse. My bike is there now. I've ridden one of his motors, and that's the main guy that's faster then me. There is another bike, wackos bike. But that thing was a drag bike with long travel suspension on it. Sleeper is such a fucking perfectionist, he actually just sent back my brand new hot rods crank because he didn't like the way it spun in the cases. Quote
draggins10 Posted July 25, 2013 Author Report Posted July 25, 2013 Alrite nice. Hopefully he has time for mine soon Quote

Didnt know I had a stretch out, lowered drag ported banshee Thanks for the heads up though Dune ported with a +4 swinger and long travel is more like it but whatever helps ya sleep at night Quote

Hopefully he has time for mine soon This may cause a shit storm but around here there has been plenty of 4mil stock cylinder bikes built by FAST HJR and KT that have been stomped by shit that sleeper06 has built and that's a fact Maybe sheerider and Infamous will chime back in!!!

Unfortunately this is a true statement. My hjr 4 mil has always taken a beating out there. My only competition are these motors. So since my clutch took a shit I went to where the fast bikes are coming from. It's taking some time. But I hope I'll be able to be a top contender out here in jersey. According to sleeper my bike will have some good pull Quote
