BANSHEE505 Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 well the reason i was wanting to go with twister is because their motor comes with pipes,carbs,ignition. Everything to make it a bolt on and go. But would the price be better to just go with a big T-rex or cheetah or would that 3rd cylinder make alot more difference lol. 488712[/snapback] With your current chassis set up I would buy into a big twin and not a tripple. A tripple is fun to ride if you have a chassis that can take the power output and hangin the hell on. I had a 8mil tripple T-rex and it was a handful in a ridged chassis for the 100 yrds. My 610 cheetha is more user freindly running the 100 yards and for the time slip difference I would say spend your money on a twin. Repair bills are costly also on a tripple vs a twin. There are too many one off parts on a tripple that you can't just run down to your local dealer and get. If your really serious about buying a tripple then I would buy one that is complete bike ready to go not just a motor. Hope this will help.

bkabina Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 I couldn't find it to save my life right now...but I know I saw a site once, that offered triples, and QUAD cylinder Banshee engines! I can't find it now and I'm so pissed off. Can you imagine 4 of those going off? 488913[/snapback] I think you mean this one.http://www.trickracing1.com/custom.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkabina Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 A triple would be cool yes,but call me old fashioned,I would rather have a big twin anyday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koolguyson Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 (edited) you know that saying...there will always be somebody faster? keep building your twins, it keeps that quote alive! every part for a triple is off the shelf. All the way from cases to cylinders. Have i broke stuff? hell ya. why am i selling? to go bigger. i could be wrong, but ive never seen a twin go in the 3.4's off bottle. I think there was an 18 billet twin on a big shot in a rigid that tickled a 40 Edited March 20, 2006 by Koolguyson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton eyed Joe Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 haha, kinda like when ur 600cc sand cannon explodes the first time? 489274[/snapback] Exactly. Because if it grenades, I'm going bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WICKED ATV Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 thanks for all the info guys. i think im going to go with a big twin. probably 610 cheetah , but i did want the powervalve but they say that the 610 doesnt come powervalve? anyway going with the twin im looking at about half the price of a triple.

Geoff Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 80overshee, your off a little on the power. On a motorcycle site I checked out awhile back they had(have regularly it seems) dyno contests. The guy that won was on a busa, turboed and it made 708hp at the RW. I know thats going extreme but if your building a turboed busa your probably going to try an hit a homerun with it so your #'s are a little low I think.

Guest WICKED ATV Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 Hey does anybody have a picture of a drag banshee with a crotch rocket engine stuffed in it? I looked on ebay and there are Hayabusa complete engines for sale for 2500 to 3000 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 Heres a link to a turbo busa running the hill. They say it's 500hp and gets clocked at 106mph. http://www.planetsand.com/memberphotos/406416-Default_16.mpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
