87bansheeguy Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 can someone tell what the best set up is for low end and still have a top speed around 75-80.(i run fmf gold series with powercoreII silencers) Quote
okbeast Posted June 7, 2008 Report Posted June 7, 2008 Not gonna happen unless you wanna do some porting on the motor (which i think you said you didn't want to yet). A stock banshee (gearing wise) will run 72 or something I think. If you want bottom-end the best route to go IMO is gearing, especially since you just have bolt-ons. You will sacrifice top-end by doing this. Sorry but that just aint what a banshee's made for. Quote
PantiK Posted June 7, 2008 Report Posted June 7, 2008 i thought like a 2 into 1 exhaust, or a 2 into 1 intake would give more bottom end??? i think, even for a stock shee, a boost bottle will give you a little bit better throttle response. other then something like that....yea...porting! Quote

Thanks ok so i just droped the whole idea of bottom end ill just have to deal with it now will my banshee i have aftermarket reeds and cages, boost bottle, fmf pipes, uni filters, timing plate at +4, dynojet kit, 15 tooth sprocket, with 20in wheels, and 1 gallon of race gas to 4 gallons of preimium, can i get an estimate at what my top speed is. and how much it will raise with milling my heads to 0.020 Quote
monster_energy06 Posted June 7, 2008 Report Posted June 7, 2008 i saw a good bottom end gain after i installed my cool head and 21 cc domes Quote
LS1Inferno Posted June 7, 2008 Report Posted June 7, 2008 the boost bottle costs you bottom end. TAKE IT THE HELL OFF!!! and and no 2 into 1 doesnt give you more bottom end. the pipe looses power, and the carbs flow better up top, and they tend to burn up a motor if its isnt PERFECT and my brosthers has bottom end close to 4 pokes, it has FMF fattys, stock carbs, open air box, VF2's and +4 timng stock front sprocket and like a 42 on the rear, it whill up and jump off the line and with the gearing it gets up fast too, just not a quick as a more top end bike. oh and no porting done to it.

spurdy Posted June 7, 2008 Report Posted June 7, 2008 Your not going to increase your top speed by increasing your compression. Speed is increased through gearing. Engine performance modifications increases horsepower and torque which allows you to pull taller gears thus increasing your top speed. 1 Quote
okbeast Posted June 7, 2008 Report Posted June 7, 2008 Yup^^^ I'd try a 13t front sprocket if I were you, It's what I run w/ porting, and the bike is plenty fast enough on top...it's dumb when people are worried about their top speed, unless you're drag racing IMO 1 Quote

Engine performance modifications increases horsepower and torque which allows you to pull taller gears thus increasing your top speed. Not entirely true, various pipes and porting configurations will allow your engine to rev out further...thus increasing your top speed. But, most of the mods that will allow your engine to rev out further will take away from your bottom end power. Quote
Snopczynski Posted June 7, 2008 Report Posted June 7, 2008 I actually felt dumber after reading this thread. Quote
flotek Posted June 7, 2008 Report Posted June 7, 2008 I actually felt dumber after reading this thread. haha thats what i was thinking short gearing wont add torque just make you shift sooner .easiest way for responsive lowend torque on a banshee without porting ,stroking .etc .....is add more compression, more timing ,and a lightend flywheel Quote
STINKYDELUXE Posted June 7, 2008 Report Posted June 7, 2008 power valves period. incresed mid and top end power. thats my .02 Quote
