majicmike Posted October 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 thats a caracal.. its aprox 1297cc's for the twin and somewhere in the 1800 range for the tripple.. the average joe cant get them without getting in touch with calvin for approval first (pretty much builders can only put them together for possibly a customer) k&t isnt the only builder that can build one.. one of the first to have it done (at least to the point it was at the ps races).. as far as i know there are/is 5 of them being built.. or at least there are parts for that many ready.. the cost is pretty spendy too.. your looking into some big bucks to get the parts only for it.. put it this way its like 2500 or so for the trans alone.. then you still need the crank, top end, cases, carbs (650 each), pipes, ect... you should expect in the 15k range at the least for the motor.. at least thats what i was told. then youve got to consider the chassis, around 1k for the rear wheels isnt unheard of.. but then again they are only 26in 14paddle kevlar rippers (12x12 rims) there are also rumors of one beign dyno'd in the 190's hp range, and a lots of nitrous can be sprayed as long as you get a progressive nitrous controller, other wise it will just blow the tires away off the line.. :ohmy: p.s. there are supposed to be different versions of that motor going into production as well.. i cant remember the third one but its supposed to go from semitar, _______, and the caracal.. then going to tripples.. That is K&TS twin saber the caracal is bigger yet :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skidmark Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 I want a motor like that for my birthday..... Better keep the ambulance on speed dial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaysonP Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 i am new to banshee's and i dont own one yet, i am just a motor builder and have read a bunch on these things, and im more interested in the motors that anything else. does this motor have to do with the talk about the 2 500CC dirtbike cylinders being machined to fit onto a banshee?? if so, could someone PM me or reply to this with a link with more information on this motor. because i am very interested in this.

lowriderb Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 you can get in touch with calvin pollet with cp industries about building one, but there is a waiting list, and it is at his preference wether or not you will get the opportunity to build it..

535banshee Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 triples are nice..........but this motor beat every triple it raced at the planet sand drag including the builders triple which made 263hp while I was on the phone with him. The beast is a twin sabber at 1150cc its right up there with the biggest triple. that big twin was also putting 70hp per hole of nos at it too. did take long and it broke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowriderb Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 no, not at all stock cases nor the regular billet cases will fit a caracal type motor in it.. the caracal cases are as wide as tripple cases to fit both cylinders.. your talking about building a 15k+ motor that pretty much takes custom everything to run..

JaysonP Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 what ever helps you win the race right? haha that would be an amazing motor tho....posibilities of 150+mph gaurentee. plus if you could get those to rev 16k we'd all be in buisness haha.

lowriderb Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 theres no reason to push that motor over 16k rpm's... it makes peak power in the 9-10k range.. also a good point that i was told about them is that they are so over built you could do pretty much what ever you wanted with it (power adder wise)..

lowriderb Posted December 23, 2006 Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 the torque that motor makes is stupid, ive been told about a few people that have been raising the exhaust ports much higher than needed just to get the compression and torque down.. each motor is different and takes a different set up..

quick16 Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 to answer all of the questions.................... they are a 76mm stroke x 95mm bore twin which comes to 1079cc's they put out 185-195hp and around 105-112 lb ft of torque the cost to build the engine is upwards of $16k and the peak rpm's of the big stroke combo are a super high revving 9,800,lol :: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
