screamin'twin Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 ive been hearing from different people that cool heads will weaken the right cylinder and will crack if you hold your shee wide open?? and that getting your stock head milled will be better. i have a pro design cool head and never had any problems with it. anybody else hear things like this??

die_infidel Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 Did the person who wants to mill your head tell you that?? I never heard of such a thing. Well I have a noss head with no problems. Quote
sredish Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 Did the person who wants to mill your head tell you that?? I never heard of such a thing. Good call! Quote
dlnoss Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 I've never heard a story even close to that. Pretty wild... Quote
erbilabuc Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 did a 4 stroke owner tell you that? Seems to me that people who have never owned a Banshee know everything there is to know about them. Well at least they think they do. Quote
locogato11283 Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 thats the dumbest thing ive ever heard. obviously someone doesnt know anything about cool heads. Quote
Blue Duece Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 thats bullshit........its the left side..... ...no whoever told you that is nuts Quote
BdBanshee Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 That's a bunch of cr@p! Either head will work better than the stock configuration, and shouldn't hurt reliability either when installed correctly. Quote
sandman121383 Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 he on any drugs or medication? punch him in the face next time u see him. better yet don't even let him see it comin,walk up all cool and casual . . . strut if necessary or desired then give it to him! plug him right in the temple and watch him hemorage all over the ground. it might be going a little too far but u can garuntee he'll never say anything that uneducated again.

Actually wouldn't beating someone to the point of retardation make them say even more stupid shit? j/k lol Seriously, this person doesn't know what they are talking about. Tell them to go get a little girls Schwinn with a Hello Kitty wicker basket on the barz and tassels on the grips. Quote
evil Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 the only bad thing about a cool head is keeping it clean !!!! Quote
brugal Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 Tell whoever said that to you ,that the only problem with coolhead is that it keeps your bike running cool.... Quote
boonman Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 Tell whoever said that to you ,that the only problem with coolhead is that it keeps your bike running cool.... That is almost an untrue statement as the previous one in this thread. To address the first MORONIC statement, that is both hilarious, and very idiotic at the same time. I find it more funny than anything!!!!!! On this new statement, a "cool-head" may not make your bike run cooler. I have heard claims of up to 10% better cooling, but I have seen no proof. Do NOT get me wrong on this. I will be getting a NOSS head soon enough, but only because of the dome interchangeability of it. Not for any other reason. As a matter of fact, there are 3 reasons that aftermarket "cool head" is good. 1. For interchanging domes at a cheap price. 2. For being able to pull the head off and re-install it with the same o-rings. Essentialy, a re-useable head "gasket". 3. looks. That's about it folks. Now, I will say this to those that will jump in here and flame away on this. Go ahead and provide proof to me and the rest of the HQ that there is a cool head that makes the bike any more than 5-10% cooler. I doubt that there is even a gain in 10% or less. The head may be able to transfer heat slightly better than a stocker just due to the surface area exposed to outside air. Not the coolant flowing within, but just the physical area outside in the open. This is a possibility, but not a very good case. Now, Once again, I will re-iterate here. I am not against the cool-head. Just stating some other things here. Show me the proof that it runs cooler. I want it. PLEASE DON'T take this the wrong way folks. it is a discussion. Not a flame war.
