MX..whats the way to go?

[kermithills]

I think im gonna start racing motocross and what is the best mods to get.All I have right now are Pro Circuit pipes, K&N filter, and the ATV Power up kit. Any help please.

If you want to be running smooth and fast I recommend shocks a-arms axle tires. I've got a set of YFZ450 shocks I am looking to get $200 shipped for.

What's your budget?

[kermithills]

Not very high..im 16 and about to get a part-time job now that football is over.

For cheap i would recommend a timing plate and advance the timing. Then a cool head for more cooling and compression. Then porting if you can afford it! Axle and shocks are also a good choice for mx.

[macgillivary]

im on a budget too and heres my setup so far

no name +4 axle i got off ebay

shortened stock swingarm

8 inch blue labels with 18 inch turf tamers

yfz shocks up front, eyeball +3+1 arms

19inch holeshots up front

renthal bars DG nerfs

dynoport 2 into 1 pipe and dual fmfs

modquad head with 21 cc domes(could just shave your stock head)

ported stock reed cages

lightened flywheel, +7 timing

motofast 2 into 1 carb setup with a 40mm lectron

and my bike runs pretty good, i have a desert tank but thats cuz i can ride from my house to a track but its a long ways so i wanted that

no porting done yet but soon enough

so ya its not cheap to make a "budget" mx banshee

i dont mean to discourage ya

first tho get some shocks and widen out that bitch and make it hook up, worry about the power second, banshees have nuts even just with a pipe and filter

you should get the suspension hooked up first before anything...that's most important...might need a good $1000+ , extended a-arms, front shocks, shortened stock swinger,rebuilt rear shock, extended axle, etc.

suspension suspension suspension. after a few races youll see what we mean. the banshee has suspension thats 15 years outta date. Once you widen it and soften her up, youll have a new bike. You will then be getting all that banshee power to the ground...instead of just spinnin in the air.

 

but then again...Ur only 16. U gotta lotta shakin and bumpin and crashin to do.....have fun with what you got...go out there and race...its a blast. worry about modin her later.

A good MX have this mods....But tons of money...

 

Good set of A-Arms +2+1 LT or not..

Durablue,RPM or Lsr axle

Shortened swingarm -1 or -2 with Double Bearing Carrier

Good set of front shocks and rear shock

Torque mods on the motor (2 in 1 carbs,milled head or coolhead 20cc,MX porting)

Good set of pipes ->your pro circuit are good

4 Klaw MX or Holeshot MX Razr MX 3 good MX tires

 

With that mods your are in good way

[PUSH THE THROTTLE]

Don't forget about the G-force axle, it's a cheaper alternative to the others and it has a lifetime warranty.

I race mine stock, and believe me it hurts after ther race!! If you can try to get some good front shocks, you arms will thank you for it.
