Top 5 Mods

[quadzillabill]

In part thanks to all of you, I ended up getting the 03 Ltd Shee today. Its all stock except for a boost bottle on it, but needs some good general maintenance.

 

I figure that after I give it a full mechanical checkup, oil change, plugs, lube/grease and a good wash I ought to start putting some mods on this thing. What are the top 5 easiest/most effective/most worthwhile projects I should take on first?

 

Thanks, Q

22 inch pure sports bandit xc tires. rocket pipes with K&N filter and remove air box snorkel, also find a place to jet hot coat them, carbon tech or delta V force reeds, then i would get PRM skid plates and pro grip gels and maybe later a port and head mod. But get the pipes first . If you do low end riding id get the Toomey T5's, i dont like fmf for banshees andbesides the banshee is a top end machine so get rockets.

by the way use cycle logics engin ice as the coolant, silkoene gear oil, and silkoene 100% ester synthetic 2 stroke oil mixed with 93 gas at 40:1 or 50:1. I also like bel ray chaine lube

buy a clymers manual

 

ditch the stock air filter,they like to pop off and suck in dirt and kill your top end.noss machine makes an adaptor plate for k&n's or foam filter

 

pipes and rejet,acording to what you ride in,fattys are great for trails

 

advance timing,either mod your stock stator plate or buy a ricky stator for 130$ and sell your old one to recoup some of your money thats what i did "thanks meat"

 

tires,to suit your riding terrain.razors are good for trails and loose dirt

 

hope this helps.you made a wise choice,wow do you like it so far?

1st- thing you need is a Pro flow kit. Lose the junk stocker (i have one for sale pm me if interested)

2- get some pipes that match your riding style

3- new rear tires for sure

4- reeds

5- billit water impeller

Alot depends on where you're gonna ride, and how much you want to spend...

 

1. Air filter-there's a good reason it's on everyone's list, the stock setups sucks. Foam filter or K&N, carb mounted or in the airbox with an adapter plate.

 

2. Reliability-lots of little things you can do, but my favorite is a temp gauge. Adding grease zerks to the axle housing and swingarm pivot are a close second, then there's removing the TORS and adding skidplates.

 

3. Suspension-probably the most expensive but also where you can make a big difference, aftermarket front shocks would probably be my first suggestion, followed by (or ideally at the same time) wider a-arms, and a wider axle.

 

4. Performance-pipe it and rejet. After that, you're only limited by $$$, shaved head/aftermarket head, reeds & ported/aftermarket cages, advance the timing, porting, etc.

 

5. Traction-rear tires are a must, depending where you ride. The right combo of fronts & wheels all the way around help alot too.

1. pro flow air intake and pipes

2. port work

4. carbs

5. bling

#1..REPLACE THE AIR FILTER!!!!!!!! (lol, the stocker set up is JUNK)

#2. Pipes (ANYTHING is better then stock, everyone has their favorite)

#3 tires...(do some research on what would work best for your riding...)

 

the rest is pretty trivial....once you get these done, youll know what to do next.

 

I did the top three, then did trinity single carb, temp gauge and then cosmetic stuff.
