Free Banshee tweaks

[brydon_hilder]

I was just wondering if there is anything you can do to a stock banshee to squeeze just a bit more power out of it without spending any money. Maybe even just some fine tuning.

you can rejet it and get rid of the airbox lid. also chaning the sprokets to make it accelerate faster is really cheap, about 7 dollars. after that the parts are somewhat expensive. A stock banshee desperatly needs new pipes and a k&n air filter but that would cost you around 600 or more.

k cool. thanks

Definatley pipes, anything is better than stock, check HQ for sale forums, local papers, classifides and ebay.

You can mix it at something other than 24:1 if you running stock ratio, like 32 or 40:1, and of course rejet.

You can also elongate the holes in the stator plate to advance your timing.

Good deal!^ The black ones are hard to find.

Sweet, I love powerbands for my banshee. I have a green one and a yellow one already. lol I rode the red one too hard so it broke. man was that red one fast

take the silencer caps off and gut the stock silencers with a long chisel and hammer and if you can find the clear power bands they are the best cause nobody can tell you are running them

[ogre03]

Not free, but as said before pipes and filter are a must. Find some used pipes for fairly cheap and get a K&N or similer filter set up (personal preferences vary on what style) You'll be glad you did.

I can mod it for you for free, you just pay for shipping both ways. Takes like 5 min to do.

Brydon...where do you live? I have a set of pipes here...Toomey T-5's to be axact, that were on the banshee I'm rebuildin when it was flipped. With alittle tweakin on one of the stingers, these pipes would have worked fine. I'm just one of them anal types that can't stand to put something back together that isn't close to perfect...and perfect cost me $650 bux, but for free..I don't see how you could go wrong myself. I'll never use these and if you got any ideas about how I can get them to you, I'll seriously complicate your life..lol (actually, once you see what JUST a new set of pipes does to your banshee, you will immediately develop an overwhelming desire to customize the living hell outta her and then, congratulations...you'll be as officially hooked on it as the rest of us in here...*sorry man..I'm tryin to help here...realy I am...lol) Lemme know k? It'd tickle me to death to be able to help someone out in here...

p.s. if you get these..you'll need to learn about jetting your carbs some, which luckily for all of us, there are some resident carb wizards in here that can tell you everything...and re-jetting isn't too tough or expensive it just takes alittle time..
