dlnoss Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 That's a pretty impressive list. I'd recommend talking to some builders like: Jim at Passion Racing Dan at Patriot Racing Nate at Mccoys Cameron at Redline Racing Andy at Grand River Racing Jason at Rocket Factory I can get numbers for any of these if you dont find them. All build Cub motors if that's what you want. All of them build fast stuff and are very 'technical' builders who know what works for your type of riding.

KASRacing Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 (edited) Let me be straight up, Dont Want to get u down, but with a 4 Grand Budget, i dont think u will even be able to get all the parts for ur 7mm Cub motor, Ur best bet will be a 4mm Cub, u also have to remeber u need stuff for ur chassis for the power u will have now!! different tires, and the list goes on, Yes i know it sounds crazy but thats how it is!!! it all add's up but it will be worth it on the long run.

3TV Posted August 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 (edited) Thanks once again for the input everyone. The learning curve is pretty steep . dlnoss, Thanks for the list of engine builders. You can bet I will check with each one of them. FASTOYS, what changes would you make to bump that motor up to a 9-10? 3TV Edited August 19, 2005 by 3TV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FIRST BANSHEE Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 Ok, I'm starting to narrow it down a bit. How does the following list sound, and roughly how much horsepower is this going to make? Cheetah Cub, +7mm stroke, 68mm bore Race spec cylinder porting Case port matching RKT Billet head 35mm PWK carbs Billet intakes K&N filters Adjustable timing plate V-Force reeds Clutch lock-out T-5s On a 1 to 10 scale, with a stock Banshee being a 1, and a super quick hillshooter being a 10, where would this one rank? Thanks. 3TV 406108[/snapback] I would run inframe drag pipes, there all more suited for what you want.v-force are great for a stock or mild motor, but hurt the top end of a big motor. good luck on the perfect engine, don't forget about relibility...

rocketpig Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 (edited) Well I'll be using the bike for general du ning, and hillshooting, and may also do some desert racing with it. What are the 500cc Trinity Banshees like, compared to a 535cc Cheetah? Edited September 28, 2005 by rocketpig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mud91 Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 Man am I sick of getting beat at hillshooting. If I ride my DS650 and my 15 year old son rides his YFZ, he wins by four bike lengths. If I ride his YFZ and he rides my DS650, he wins by five bike lengths. He is a string bean of a kid, and I outweigh him by a hundred pounds And when riding my wife's TTR-125cc dirt bike I even lost to my 9 year old son on his Grizzly 125. I think I lost every race I ran last weekend I know you want a fast bike, but if you don't know how to ride it your still gonna get beat by that 125 grizzly. But serious your shouldn't be loosing that bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 I was thinking the same thing. I don't mean to be knocking anybody, but I'd probably focus on my riding skills before I went out and spent a ton-o-cash on a hot rod Banshee. Seriously, you might want to hook up with someone that does a fair amount of hill racing and drags and hone some launching techniques. It will really make a difference when counts. Once you've got it down then go out and build the dream bike. I don't want to sound like I'm bragging but I've smoked a few "race" bikes (you know the type, drag pipes, nitrous bottle hanging off the rear, etc) just because the rider didn't have a clue how to handle the bike. Given the right person behind the bars and I would have looked stupid eating his sand up the hill. Rooster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
