BansheeJerry Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 In a nutshell if you are jetted in right or dialed in right (however you want to put it) you should be able to hold her wide open until you get tired. If the machine fails,there is a reason it did so. That is unless your shee turns 17ks... Quote
banshee_rider95 Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 wow...if a stock banshe will do 103....i wonder what mine would do.....lol...i wonder if he had a stock powerband or if he had one of those pretty pink ones.....lol Quote
STLBILL Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 Hi guys: One additional note: Make sure you're moving. If you run wide-open in a mud bog you'll overheat and toast something for shore. Besides you'll get the guy behind you (who didn't make it as far as you) all dirty. Regards, Bill Quote
Fireman-hott Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 mmhmm cant wait till Memorial day for the local mud bog. Guy opens his property to us, small MX track, some woods trails and a big ol mud hole with 4x4 trucks runing through it. Gotta get out there and show them up Quote

bansheefreak Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 if jetted right you should be able to wot as long as you want.. most time if you burn it up it is when you let of the gas real qiuck and not blimp the throttle while slowing cause when you let off the gas all lubrication is gone ... feul cools the motor...and lubes it too.... just my 2 cents Quote
BansheeJerry Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 bansheefreak... VERY good point... Pull the clutch... Quote
fel0n Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 I have held my Banshee at WOT for about 25 second on a long dirt road, and it was fine. So you should be ok as long as your shee isnt a pos Quote
kotin6 Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 well i ran my 2003 stock banshee at a drag strip through the 1/4 mile and she was to 103 mph.... but she wont be stock for long dude you are so full of shit. I have rode mine wide open stock and slightly moded for much further than a 1/4 mile down hill even and lucky to hit 80. how can you come on a site called BANSHEE HQ and expect people to belive that shit?

I have rode mine wide open stock and slightly moded for much further than a 1/4 mile down hill even and lucky to hit 80. how can you come on a site called BANSHEE HQ and expect people to belive that shit? Well, you'd have to be running a 17 tooth up front and a 41 tooth in back, or a 16/40 with 20" tires, and thats 104 mph at 11,000 rpm, but at 8,000 rpm thats a mere 75.5 mph. A 15/41 with 22" tires, will give you a 105 mph at 11,000 rpm, but at 8,000 rpm your running 76 mph. I don't believe a stock banshee will get much over 8k or 9k rpm, not sure exactly. Not too mention you'd have to have some cool power to pull that last little bit. Not going to happen with a stock shee. I'm sure someone can help me out on the rpm info of a stock and modded shee. I need to get a tach for my bike. Quote
wheeleymaster99 Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 i've seen some dynos for banshees and some highly oded onjhes can run over 11,000 but i think the stocks shees aill olney run 8000-9000 Quote
sredish Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 Thanks master. One more thing, an outrageous 17/38 with 22" tires is at 105 at 9k rpm. With 20" tires you'd need a 18/38 to get it to 101 at 9k rpm. I don't think a stock shee can pull these gears, call me crazy. Quote
NYUK Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 here we go again.i bet he had stock fenders up front too.they really help with the aerodynamics. Quote
ikikazz Posted February 5, 2004 Report Posted February 5, 2004 my xr can be held open for as long as you want and you will be going 100++ in the desert upuntil you hit that one hole a little to hard when you should be doing 30 and are going 90+++ then the ground comes up fast Quote

If I had to own one thumper, it'd be an xr. Quote
