I have been riding for a while now and my shee is not fast enough. I want a shee that is extremly reliable and some what fast. I was looking and in a magazine seen a 60 horse power reloiable banshee. I want the exact one in the mag except for the following mods, Head lights on the handelbars, brake light keep it on, and send stock tires along with the sand ones. I will ride this on trails and dunes. The trails are mostly open spaces. rite now I trail ride. I plan on going away on vacations to the dunes. I live in New York. I will look threw my mags and se if I can find the issue for all you. It was either 4 wheel atv action, dirt wheels. L8R

I cant find the issue but I did write down the mods and some text from the artical. I was thinking of buying this last year, so I wrote everything down incase I lost the issue.0 Now I am seriously considering it. This is what I have saved on disc from the artical.

 

 

Mission yamaha banshee. 58 horse power

 

Dirt wheels mag sent mission yamahas speed tech division a bone stock banshee. They wanted a major increase in horsepower and to have it more sand capable. also to turn it into a speed crazed sand slining monster. But there are stipulations. It had to be BOTH fast and RELIABLE. and they had to do it without the extrea cost of splitting the cases for a bigger bore or new cranks. Teddy Boyko took up the challenge. Within a week it was done. He made the following mods:Scince they were sticking with the stock bore and cranks and not instaling a big bore kit ted changed the pistons. He put in LA sleeves pro x piston kit @228.84. Next step ws to port the cilinders and mod the heads 408.00$. He raises and widens the exhaust ports but not to wide b/c the pistons will rock back and forth the blow up. WHen modifing the stock heads he bumped up the compression from 120-125 to 150 psi. He used Toomey racing T5 series crome pipes 544.00$. Added twist throttle and cables 79.95$. To get max fuel flowing to the cilinders he used moto tassinaris delta V force reeds 269.00$. A set of k and N aie filter and water proff outer ware were put in place of the stock air box. Mount over flow bracket. Scat track eight paddle sand tires mounted on doug alluminum rims scat trac mohawk front on doug alluminum. Set of tag alluminum handel bars w/ billet bar adapter. Side winder long lasting high carbon steel sprockets front and rear, Side winder 520 o ring chaine. One industries graphics gripper seat cover.Super tacky serfas spider grips. It dynoed at59.3 and 9000 rpm with VP c12 raceing fuel mixed wit h dumond tech oil.

 

Can I run this on pump gas? What octane what mixture and what ratio?

 

Thanks

Mission Yamaha doesn't post here. You can either call them, or pick the brains of the builders who do post here. they can be found in the forum "questions for banshee performance shops". there isn't really anything out of the ordinary on the article you listed. And BTW, I HATE ATV mags.......

Because too many people rely on them for their information and take it as gospel. They don't realize that Mission paid for that article, call it advertising. call it whatever.
