quick-z Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 get it ported and you will have more power than you can handle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
. Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 reed cages, head and bump the compression some, timing plate, porting. Only way your gonna hit 100 is if you change your gearing and get some good portwork done..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only way your gonna hit 100 is if you change your gearing and get some good portwork done..... 366108[/snapback] I tried nearly all the bolt-ons with little results.When I finally got it ported,that helped alot.Definitely get porting.Just get the head shaved.FMF's are ok,but there are better pipes.Shearer,cpi,etc...Bigger carbs(34 or 35 mm.) Gearing is also important.Your bike will be alot faster with these mods.It will surprise you.You'll probably need a longer swingarm.Really.

03bansheeLE Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 you could get a +4mm stroker crank or even a +7mm and get some better pipes, depending on wut power band you want. top end power, get rockets, cpi, or shearer. low to mid power, get paul turners or pro circuits.

locogato11283 Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 what kind of riding do you do? to reach a speed of 100 mph your porting and gearing will not be good for much else other than going fast. i doubt thats gonna be a very good bike to run in the woods without a major gearing change. what types of riding are you gonna be doing?

dajogejr Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 Banjo... Lighten the flywheel and advance the timing. Recently made my shee a totally different animal. I was surprised how much easier it was to ride in the trails and keep it on the pipe...it almost removed the well known "Hit" from my T5's... Because it revs faster...the power is there quicker... For less than 100 bucks...you're missing out if you're not already there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandman121383 Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 port man, u won't regret it. its next on my list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 me too... Still loving those T5's...Sandman. Porting and a .010 over kit is gonna go in after this riding season...or, possibly durning it if shee gernades on me... Lots of good porting gurus out there. Eric Gorr and Passion seem to be some of the favorites here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dajogejr Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 strap a rocket to your ass. 366518[/snapback] I know Ray was out of Rockets for a while. He lives about 20 miles from me. I've been waiting for him to let me know when the "loaner" set comes in...I want to try 'em out. I'm looking forward to it...just still waiting...
