JWall Posted May 10, 2006 Report Posted May 10, 2006 Just bought an New 04 banshee and have been readin post about maintenace of this machine. What exactly do I need to do to keep my machine in top shape and out of the garage? Please list some basic Maintenance routines and when these routines should be carried out. THANKS! Quote
csrmel Posted May 10, 2006 Report Posted May 10, 2006 first thing to do is wash the bike down real good and generally just clean the thing up. then it would be to change the gearbox oil. while you are at it, pick up a magnetic drain plug. you can get one off ebay for around 8 dollars. next thing would be to pull the air filter out and inspect it. if its sufficently dirty then clean it with mild detergent, inspect it carefully for deterioration espically the foam sealing gasket. this tends to rip or get messed up causing air leaks. if the filter is ok then re oil and re install. it would also be a good idea to sync the carbs, lube all the cables, adjust the clutch, brakes, throttle, parking brake etc, lube and adjust the chain, etc. finally grease all of the suspension zerks. im sure theres more but thats all i can think of for now.
