kaotik1 Posted December 5, 2006 Report Posted December 5, 2006 I used them in my ex's blaster, and they seem to work out good. I got it from Vito's. It was part of the power up kit. Quote
banshee freak Posted December 5, 2006 Report Posted December 5, 2006 I threw one of those in my brother in laws blaster and the skirt broke and fell into the crank.......not good. My jetting was all perfect ...it was a manu. defect....so its up to u Quote
BigRed350x Posted December 5, 2006 Report Posted December 5, 2006 I tried running them when I was a cheap bastard in high school in my 87 and they shattered after about 5 hours of riding and destroyed my top end. I will never go near them again. Quote
lowriderb Posted December 5, 2006 Report Posted December 5, 2006 they are cast pistons like stock, i wouldnt expect much performance out of them or to hold up to the beating a forged set could.. and yes ive ran them before too.. and i wouldnt run them again.. Quote
easttexasbanshee Posted December 5, 2006 Report Posted December 5, 2006 Yeah, don't run them. I had my banshee jet perfectly and I shattered one and spent 2 days trying to get all of the crap out of the motor.....spend 30 bucks more and get some decent pistons. they are cast pistons like stock, i wouldnt expect much performance out of them or to hold up to the beating a forged set could.. and yes ive ran them before too.. and i wouldnt run them again..

hot rod Posted December 5, 2006 Report Posted December 5, 2006 (edited) what other piston beside wiseco do you guy like Edited December 5, 2006 by hot rod Quote
Ducman Posted December 6, 2006 Report Posted December 6, 2006 what other piston beside wiseco do you guy like Vitos are decent, they are made by wiseco. Quote
dajogejr Posted December 6, 2006 Report Posted December 6, 2006 Wiseco...tried and true. Tough deal to beat here.... http://www.magicracing.com/Wiseco-Piston-K...ee_p_0-135.html Quote
4everwantedbanshee Posted December 6, 2006 Report Posted December 6, 2006 i got mine from here http://www.motosport.com/offroad/index.php free shipping with anything over $100. i thought it was a great deal. Quote
dajogejr Posted December 6, 2006 Report Posted December 6, 2006 i got mine from here http://www.motosport.com/offroad/index.php free shipping with anything over $100. i thought it was a great deal. Nice find, here's a direct link to the kit. However...as of right now, they're out of stock for the wrist pin bearing...and they're only 10 bucks more than Magic before shipping. I'd say between the two, it'd be within 2 or 3 bucks on total price...go with who has it in stock and can get it to you quickest!! http://www.motosport.com/offroad/productDe...HA;BANSHEE;1996 Quote
millertime Posted December 6, 2006 Author Report Posted December 6, 2006 what you think of this kit.... i will get new wrist pin bearings http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Yamaha-Bans...053354830QQrdZ1 Quote
