highroller355 Posted September 11, 2007 Report Posted September 11, 2007 pro and cons can i still run front brakes where to get who makes them Quote
dajogejr Posted September 11, 2007 Report Posted September 11, 2007 As far as I know....you have to get Jr. Dragster mounts, and no on the front brakes. I'd look on PS or here for used setup, or...I'm pretty sure you can get them from JJ&A...but they're pricey. I'm 100% positive you can get the wheels for spindle mounts, not sure on the spindles themselves...though.. jjandaracing.com Quote
NYUK Posted September 11, 2007 Report Posted September 11, 2007 wicked atv sells front spindle mounts that are machined to accept rotors, yes you can still run front brakes. some asphalt tracks this is a must. bigboy has my old ones on his bike i think.if i didn t run front brakes on some tracks i went to i would be dead. like zinc city and englishtowns 8 th mile track.

sredish Posted September 11, 2007 Report Posted September 11, 2007 aaaah. what does NYUK know? :cool: Quote
bigboybanshee Posted September 11, 2007 Report Posted September 11, 2007 You don't need no stinkin front brakes :tongue: Yes, I run John's old spindle mounts, only place I'm aware of that sells the spindle mounts with brake rotor attachments is wickedatv. They are extremely nice people to deal with, Roger took great care of me when I needed replacement bearings, etc. You don't need anything special to run them, just pull of your existing hub and rotor, put the rotor on your new spindle mount wheel, then apply a little grease on the spindle and slide the wheel on. Install spacer on the outside of wheel, then washer, then the castle nut, and finally the cotter pin. Re-install brake caliper, you're done. Quote

JJ and A offer hubs to support OEM Banshee brake rotors and spindles. On the other end of the spectrum, you can remove the caliper mounting brackets from your banshee spindles and order the JJ and A spindles without any brake mounting features. Direct Drive and JJ and A both make a fantastic product and are great companies to deal with. :geek: Quote

NYUK, I know it's old.... But what's up with the rear swinger section on this? Is that a boxed in aluminum truss? Quote
NYUK Posted January 10, 2016 Report Posted January 10, 2016 NYUK, I know it's old.... But what's up with the rear swinger section on this? Is that a boxed in aluminum truss? chain guard. i will find a pic of it, my track would not let me run without it. Quote

sleeper06 Posted January 10, 2016 Report Posted January 10, 2016 I love that bike, always a favorite. We all have to run guards that's just a stellar example of a well thought out piece. I usually see erecter sets held together with zip ties Quote
trickedcarbine Posted January 10, 2016 Report Posted January 10, 2016 Well, if you gotta run it, I suppose that's a pretty friggin decent way to go about it. Quote
