sredish Posted April 28, 2005 Report Posted April 28, 2005 a smaller swinger has what type of advantage on a track?... an di do think my clutch is fulkered up... same one since 01.. haha 360339[/snapback] the smaller swinger will bring the tires closer to your ass and put more weight on them, giving you more traction due to the added weight. It will want to wheelie a tad more, but it'll be alright. Move your gearing to 15/41 and start in second and you'll be doing good. The 15 front tooth will help with the spin and the wheeling, the 2nd gear start will get you out of the whole quicker and the swinger will keep you from spinning so much. The swinger is good for the trace because coming out of corners, you'll accelerate faster and spin less. Tire spin is a big downfall for the banshee. Quote

sredish Posted April 28, 2005 Report Posted April 28, 2005 I'VE GOT TON OF WHEEL SPIN!!! . . . you say you had a shortened one?... also you know where i can get my fly wheel lightened around her RED 361724[/snapback] Yes, I have a stock one that's been professionally shortened, just needs painting. It'll make it more fun to ride on the track as well, guaranteed. Jumping will be easier, wheelies will be easier, and you'll come out of the hole quicker. Boonman used to lighten flywheels, don't know if he's gotten out of it or not. Might shoot him a PM and tell him I sent ya. Haven't talked to him in a little bit. There are a few other peeps on here that do it as well. I'll check around. Quote
NEVER SATISFIED Posted April 28, 2005 Author Report Posted April 28, 2005 $$$-? SWINGER? boonman live around here or do i need to send it out? Quote
sredish Posted April 28, 2005 Report Posted April 28, 2005 he lives in upstate NY. I'd say 100 even for the swinger shipped. Quote

NEVER SATISFIED Posted May 3, 2005 Author Report Posted May 3, 2005 what are you racing.. just a repost.. switching to a 15 tooth this weekend and running them again. anyone have a link to a site where i can get some 420 mains for a stock carby!!! Quote
sredish Posted May 3, 2005 Report Posted May 3, 2005 CarbParts.com That' a good place to anything carb related. I'd call em on the phone and discuss what you need with them. In regards to Sat., don't think I'm gonna be able to make it. There's a slight chance, but think the wife has some things planned for Mother's Day.... She wants to do it Sat instead of Sun so we don't have to get up early the next day... We'll hook up somehow tho. Quote
NEVER SATISFIED Posted May 3, 2005 Author Report Posted May 3, 2005 yeah i hear ya RED... moms b day on sat then moms day on sunday... forgot her b day till i went over there the other day and she went off.. sooooooo i will not be going to the show that night.. i will go ride this sat though till about 5 or so...

NEVER SATISFIED Posted May 9, 2005 Author Report Posted May 9, 2005 just a repost.. i slapped the 15 tooth in and we ran em on a short strip on the dirt.. but we hung right next to eachother.. i still feel that i havent yet reved out and i rode the track and my bottom end was still there.. ya think i can switch to a 16 tooth or is that too much? i did a WOT on the 15 and it didnt bog in none of the gears.

bigboybanshee Posted May 9, 2005 Report Posted May 9, 2005 I say go for it! If you have a case saver you "might" have to shave it a little to fit the 16 tooth...BUT, you can also buy a bigger rear sprocket to get more gear...1 tooth on the front sprocket is equivolent to 3 teeth on the rear sprocket. So, if you only want to get a little bit more gear, get a sprocket with 1 or 2 more teeth in the rear. Quote
