Whitey Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 we're taking my friend's Banshee to Cecil county this Friday and East Coast ATV said if you hold it maxed out its going to blow. We have a 16, 17 and 18 tooth sprocket but they said teh bike is just going to lean itself out top end and gernade. The bike always runs C16 with a programmable ignition and 35mm carbs. Is this true? Here's the bike: Quote

Wicked98Shee Posted April 14, 2006 Report Posted April 14, 2006 (edited) ya do your plug chop at WOT ... if you are jetted properly you shouldnt lean out and go boom. lol my banshee gets run at WOT for sum long ass hauls, when a chop the plug i run it at WOT for atleast 15 to 20 seconds .... lol thats a dam site longer than a quarter mile. BTW nice shee Edited April 14, 2006 by Wicked98Shee Quote

JArmShee Posted April 15, 2006 Report Posted April 15, 2006 Ill start off by saying "IM AN IDIOT!" last year I was running my shee against another in 1/8 mile passes Knowing that my bike wasnt Jetted exactly right. (little too lean) It ran strong but I knew it wasnt safe for long. I made about 10-15 full passes in the matter of 15 minutes. Finally the thing crapped out. Now I knew it was time for a rebuild soon so I didnt mind granading it. I went to kick it over and the kick start was stuck as if the engine was seized. So I figured hell I blew the motor, It was fun while it lasted. Brought the pick up in and hauled the shee out. Getting home that night I pulled of my cool head and everything looked A0k Up top. No detonation marks or anything. So i figured maybe a ring got caught up, Pulled the pipes to get a peak, Still nothing..... Now moving the kick start by hand the rotating assembly spun freely. Sealing off ports and everything. I put the thing back together and tried kicking it over, nothing, check spark and I had none.. Pulling off the cover I discovered I had Sheered off my woodruff key and the flywheel had wiggled out. Made me happy to know That I could fix that small problem and get a few more beatings in b4 I had to rebuild. Heres the kick in the ass. When I pulled the head off some coolant had leaked into the cylinder and left corrode and rust in my cylinder walls. and I need to rebuild now anyway. Moral of the story: Ride it till it breaks. When you ride it Try to break it!! GoFaSt Racing. Quote
