87TwoStrokeShee Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 I have a 87 Banshee with the 4 prong rear sprocket hub. I cant find any sprockets smaller than a 42t to fit the older hubs. So my question is can i put a new style sprocket hub on my 87 shee? the hub of the newer ones have six prongs to hold the sproket on and that way i can get a smaller sprocket to fine tune and increase my top end speed.

blueshee03 Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 you can put the newer 6 bolt style sprocket hub on the 87 but with the 4 bolt you can go down to 37 tooth .with the 6 bolt sprocket hub you can only go down to a 39 tooth without the chain riding on the ears .if you shave a little off then you can go to a 38 tooth.in my oppinion stay with the 4 bolt and order your sprockets from sprocket specialties.

Meat Posted October 3, 2005 Report Posted October 3, 2005 just for the record, Lonestar sells a billet sprocket hub that uses a 250r sprocket. I think you can go as low as 35 teeth with a honda sprocket bolted on. Quote
