Ls7colorado Posted January 10, 2006 Report Posted January 10, 2006 I am fixing to get a banshee witch is all stock from bumper to bumper.... Anyways, I mostly just want a inframe drag pipe, but it seems that the rocket pipes are hard to come buy. I will be drag racing and just riding the back roads with buddies. Other than pipes were should I start? I only weigh 130lbs and this thing will top out FAST, what is the highest gearing I can get? Id like it to top out around 90 or so instead of 70. Thanks guys any info at all is good. Quote

Ls7colorado Posted January 10, 2006 Author Report Posted January 10, 2006 what about those rocket pipes? They look really bad ass but it seems like people have a hard time getting them. Quote

Strictly drag...but jetting could have been a factor since the owner didn't want to change anything when I was there...I think they are comparable to the Pro Circuits, BUT its really not a fair call, since this was not on a stock shee w/ stock porting....The difference between an extreme top end pipe like CPI, shearer, rockets,etc and from T5, fmf fatties, T6, Trinity, PT highs and minimal in a drag....maybe 1 bike length....depending on terrain, the higher revving the pipe, the harder they are to launch in hard pack since they just blaze the tires....I win a lot of drags racing my buddys in hard pack gravel roads w/ my PT midrange pipes...they just hook and pull out the hole 3-4 bike lengths and maintain until top end...if your riding in sand w/ paddles, then the high revs will have the advantage......so if your on hard terrain w/ knobbies, go for your type of riding instead of dragging....for fast roads...T5's. They have a decent bottom end to help pull out of the corners at high speeds.. Quote
Ls7colorado Posted January 11, 2006 Author Report Posted January 11, 2006 ok thanks, I just never thought deciding on pipes would be such a big desicion! I guess thats why it has its own fourm... Quote
