Bio-Hazard shee Posted November 13, 2004 Report Posted November 13, 2004 i just bought my banshee back on may 5, 2004 of this year and not even 2 weeks after i got it, it started giving me problems, the right side cylinder was not working right. gas was spitting out of the pipe. and when i took the cylinder off, i found out why, when i took the cylinder off, 3 pieces of the rings fell out, the rings broke inside the cylinder while my motor was running, and it made some bad grooves and bumps that you can see with your eyes very well, and i thought about getting it resleeved. so i called Wiseco and asked how much it would be to resleeve the right side cylinder, total cost was $243.00, $91 for the sleeve, $140 for labor, so then i called central powers Yamaha, and asked how much it would cost to resleeve the right side cylinder, total cost $187.00, $92 for the sleeve, $95 for labor, today i am taking my cylinder to central powers yamaha to get it resleeved, and i am going to buy a torque wrench, this banshee has cost me $1000 to fix, i bought other parts i didn't need, but i still have to buy an airbox, air filter, rejet carbs, and that is it Quote
hamuel Posted November 13, 2004 Report Posted November 13, 2004 whats the bore on the cylinder's as it is? just a friendly reminder if yah sleeve one yah want sleeve/bore the other. Becuase they'll be out of balalnce an cause alot of other problems for you. Quote
Bio-Hazard shee Posted November 13, 2004 Author Report Posted November 13, 2004 the cylinders are at a .60 over bore, and i thought they were at a .50 bore, but i bought brand new .60 wiseco piston kits and turns out my cyluinders are at a .60 over bore, the left side cylinder doesn't have a scratch in it, however the right side has 3 or 4 bumps and grooves in it, i am just getting the right side cylinder resleeved. i ordered the sleeve/bore for the right side cylinder, a new sleeve put in and they are going to bore it for me to .60 over, so my cylinders will be balanced out, but thanks for the reminder Quote
