satts Posted December 19, 2013 Report Posted December 19, 2013 Just get a subframe from fourwheeladdiction and plus whatever length swingarm and it will look stretched Quote
Larry's Shee Posted December 19, 2013 Report Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) Why are you guys being ignorant assholes? Well, this boat left the dock early on You can catch more flies with honey than vinager. Seeing as this is a Banshee forum, not much info here on your subject. Welding a kit together is not the same as desining and fabricating a vehical. I know I'm an asshole, you didn't have to remind me. But, I'm not an ignorant one Having built a snomo drag motorcycle, I have a little insight to this problem. Building a frame from scratch will probably be easier (and safer) than strecthing a Banshee. The clutch shaft MUST be perfectly parralell to the crankshaft. I would suggest using the chain case from the snomo too. Will make gearing changes easier, as you won't need a sprocket as big as the rear wheel, and guarenteed, your first gear choice probably won't be right. (experience talking) This shaft must also be parralell. No matter which way you go, you now need a custom shaft to accept the final drive sprocket, which I know you don't have laying around. If you don't use a fuel pump you need diferent float needles for gravity flow. If you ever get this far, you will then have the joy of tuning the clutches, as it is no longer a sled. Of corse you have a selection of weights, springs and helixes laying around Might check Planet Sand or E2S for this type of build. Good luck and let us know how it goes. Will you be man enough to admit failure on here? Edited December 19, 2013 by Larry's Shee 1 Quote
Larry's Shee Posted December 19, 2013 Report Posted December 19, 2013 I forgot all about the pipes. I'd snatch up the cheapest set of drag pipes and modify them to fit. Quote
m671054 Posted December 19, 2013 Report Posted December 19, 2013 That little motor will be comparable to a 421. just focus on fitting the engine in. no need to stretch the front. bout 10" out the back is all you need. Quote

That little motor is about 65 hp if i remember right. so maybe a sick and dying 421. if your referring to a cub. Quote
sstaton1983 Posted December 19, 2013 Report Posted December 19, 2013 Anyone have specs on this rotax? Quote
special06shee Posted December 19, 2013 Report Posted December 19, 2013 Formula z 583 is about 90hp. They rip with a valve cut and some clutch work. Quote

m671054 Posted December 19, 2013 Report Posted December 19, 2013 your right. forgot about the loss in the clutch. Quote

Will you be man enough to admit failure on here? Exactly right about having the center to center, and off-set dead nuts... And, the secondary has to float slightly on the shaft, or it will eat belts in a flash! Or worst case scenario the crank breaks and turns that clutch into a grenade! Quote
n2otoofast4u Posted December 23, 2013 Report Posted December 23, 2013 Building snomo bikes is not rocket science. With two clues and a tape measure you can get yourself hooked up pretty easily. Just sayin. Quote
Young Guns Racing Posted December 23, 2013 Report Posted December 23, 2013 Better off doing a street bike coversion than the sled. I know its all already there but one its a smaller unit that will cost you in one way or another. The sled swap might seem really cool but it is going to be in no way rideable or just a play bike. Again i vote sell the damn sled or part it out for what you can and start buidling a nasty banshee engine. No fitment issues and it has the potential to be faster then the sled swap Quote
