RagunCajun Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Well, today i was riding my Banshee and it really dawns on me that the tranny doesnt shift as smooth as my yz125. Is there a way to make the banshee transmition shift better? My yz's is like butter and the shee is far from that. My shee isnt broken or anything, but i just wish it shifted better. :: Quote
theshee Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Modding your shift star is a good place to start. :thumbsup: Quote
smokin 2 stroke Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 umm one u buy one a modded shift start and two but some spring from casscade that will make it ship smoother Quote
xLastShotx Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 (edited) I have heard a lot of good things about the Shift Star mod, which you can do yourself or order an already moded one from F.A.S.T Racing. Shift Star Mod: http://www.farmandsandtoys.com/partdetail.asp?partid=69 Another mod I saw which claims improved shifting is the Shift Shaft Mod and Easy Spring Which F.A.S.T Racing also sells. Shift Shaft Mod and Easy Spring: http://www.farmandsandtoys.com/partdetail.asp?partid=132 I bet if you did both it would shift a lot better. Has anyone done the Shift Shaft Mod and Easy Spring? If so how well did it work? Edited February 9, 2007 by xLastShotx Quote
JKJK Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 I run both of those mods with rz forks,a yakey(sp) drum+every other engagement cog ground off the gears.The forks have true roller tips+the drum also has an additional bearing on the end of it.This was a huge improvement over the stock set up.

rebelbanshee2 Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 i ran RZ forks and drum, a modded star, and had half the engaging dogs milled off the gears. The throw was still a mile long, but it was quite a bit smoother. Still not close to a bike with a good transmision. Quote
RagunCajun Posted February 9, 2007 Author Report Posted February 9, 2007 (edited) With a Clymer manual, are those things hard to install? Also, the modded shift shaft and sping is $25. Does that include a brand new already modded shaft and sping or that price is if i send them my shaft? oh yeah....the throw is still rather long too on the shee. Ah well, i guess it's the price you have to pay for having one. :biggrin: Edited February 9, 2007 by RagunCajun Quote
moneybags Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 I have a shift star mod and one of the Pro Shift Kits form ebay on both my Banshees. They both shift like butter. Quote
NY350twin Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 First thing I would do is change the fluid. Belray gear saver and royal purple syncromax work pretty good. Quote
3 Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 Moneybags, do you have a link for that eBay shift kit? Quote
moneybags Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 I tried to find one but the person dose not have any up right now. His ebay name is simplythat. Look in a cupple days. Quote
MDS2106 Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 This is the company that makes them http://www.tudorsperformance.com/tudors_new_002.htm Quote
