breaking 100mph?

[sycoracer911]

alright i got a banshee with paul turner high revs, and a k&n.... now i may be ording dune ported cyl's, 30mm carbs, rechamberd head, timing plate, and a lightend flywheel..... now im wondering if i could pull 17:40 gearing.... and with 20's on the back.... would i break 100mph? if not then what else would i need to do.... how about 17:38?

Just my opinion but......

Its gonna take some power I think. You got to remember you have alot of wind resistance even if you shave the fenders. If I remember right with wind resistance (drag) its exponential, as in if you double your speed you 4x the resistance. (Can't remember its been too long)

I liken the bashee to being as aerodynamic as a pair of plyers. It can be done, but you're going to need either a tail wind to reduce your drag, or ALOT of horsepower.

it takes a shit ton of power to get there sure it can be done though. NYUK's cheetah did 111, in the 1/8.

assuming you have the HP, with 17/38 and 20" tires, you'd need to be turning 9500 RPM to break 100MPH

on my gas bike,i have done over 100.we are talking 75 -80 hp play drag bike.heavy.on an asphalt strip.big ass 38mm carbs.cpi inframes. the only way to tell is to take it to a drag strip. if it don t do it by right after the eighth mile,it ain t doing it.my gears were 18 38. it takes some nuts to pull them gears.if you don t have asphalt tires you will be vibrating like a 400 lb . dildo.even with them you might. pretty scary.

Iv'e been pinned in 6th on 20's with 15/41 and I wish I had street tires.

 

It was during a GP race, so I had my knobbies on. They vibrated enough to scare me, but the straight was only about two blocks, so I just held on.

why u wanna go 100?? thats a pretty damn high speed on a quad..i know mine can do it but for what reason? i dont need to go that damn fast..quads vibrate too much and atthose speeds i wouldnt feel comfortable..

your going to need some hp besides a pipe to pull a 100, try getting a scotts stearing stabilizer.........that way if you do hit a 100 you wont break your neck........

Heh. I guess a twitch or a bee zippin up yer nose at 100mph might send you into a hard left and or right wouldn't it?

not with the scotts stan.......let go of the bars at 80 not a problem.......at 475.00 bucks it's fuckin auto pilot for your shee, and you can just turn a knob on your bars and soften it if you like.......all in all a neat add on for your quad........also a must for any 100mph plus baja racers, two or four wheelers

Yea those big bees and dragon flies feel like getting shot by a paintball above a 100mph. I had bugs leave little bruises back in my young and dumb days on my streetbike.

[Dead Op]

I dont know but a 100mph on a snowmobile isnt bad as a quad i know lol...my sled picks off the ground at speeds over 100...

Shit...when some of those bugs smack my windshield running down the freeway I wonder somedays why it didn't just break.

June Bugs are the worst.

[BansheeBrian]

Beatles feel like bullets over 70.Some bugs wil bend the fins on a radiator.That remins me of an ol'timers joke. What's the last thing that goes through a bugs mind when he smacks the windshield? -----His ass!!
