endofitall9 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 well my buddy who has had his bike down for 4 years just got it back together and running..a local guy ported it for the woods..i have always heard that his bike was fast and powerful but never got to see it in action..so i was helping him tune it the other day and after we got the mid and top dialed in i took a ride on it..and holy shit this is an extremely badass bike...i have had several ported banshees and i have never rode one that pulls like this thing does...the bike literally tries to pull out from under you..i rode it not even 600 yards and when i got back and shut it off i had extreme arm pump lol (twist throttle). Now I was thinkin I hvant rode mine in about a year and it has an Eric Gorr woods port and every other bolt on but I'm thinking about going 4 mil with it..I'm pretty sure my cylinders should be good..just wondering what i will gain...i dont think $500 is worth 4 hp, if that is the case. What can I expect if I drop in a 4 mil crank wnd have some domes cut...? info appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njbanshee Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 It takes a little more than just dropping it in. If you go with a 4 mill you should have it ported for a 4 mill and why your at it if the top end is worn thats a good time to do that too. Bigger carbs might benefit you aswell. Just some things to add to your total before taking the plung. And they are wearth every penny! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endofitall9 Posted May 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 I should have explained a little in my first post sorry...just had to bragg on my buddies bike lol, I should have mentioned I have everything to do the 4 mill besides the crank..now for the cylinders. As you know I'm running Gorr Woods ported cylinders,,they have a killer ass lowend and a very smooth powerband and pull really strong up top...I have had 4 other ported bike but some different builders and I like these cylinders the best..with that said I wanted to see if I can get them adjusted or checked out to see if I could run a 4mill and get good numbers from it..I should also mention that I think my buddies "woods" ported bike is almost too much for the woods..as everytime the band hit it rips the damn tires off the ground...yes even in dirt.. The setup I was aiming for would be as follows.. Pt mids 4 mill 35mm pwks (if too hard on gas)than a graydon 2 into 1..I dont think they use as much gas..lol +4 timing cut stroker domes v3's and hopefully my gorr port cylinders.. all this will depend on if i can use my Gorr ported cylinders.. I'm really wanting to know what kinda power i should expect basically out of the 4 mill crank being dropped in?? say like 10 hp and totally different machine or slight little hp increase...
