xXBlessedWithDeathXx Posted August 8, 2008 Report Posted August 8, 2008 But why would you want to...then you run into risking the VERY thin sleeves cracking from the More heat that having basiclly no meat on the cylinder walls will create, but it can be done yes! Most guys will re sleeve when 80 over is done! why would you want to? for starters its cheaper. 2nd if you have ported cylinders its cheaper. i`m 60 over. if i dont have a bigger motor until the 100 over goes then i`ll have 100 over. its the idea it could be done. Mitch : if its a good bike i say do it. if you get a title i wouldnt think twice. years dont mean shit and everything could be replaced if need be. i would seriously look into a title so you dont get fucked 2G. if you ever need parts look up NYUK and i`m sure he can help.

And if he does get f'ed, the bike can be parted out for much more than 2k for the list up on page 1... Quote
xXBlessedWithDeathXx Posted August 8, 2008 Report Posted August 8, 2008 yea, i mad a good bit off my 89 $300 parts banshee and it had no cylinders / rusty crank / no carbs/ boots. i made at the least $800 and still have parts. it also had no pipes or front plastics. dude said it was a running bike all but the CDI when i got there it was stripped so $300 it was. that CDI is on my shee now :biggrin: Quote
Mitch Posted August 8, 2008 Author Report Posted August 8, 2008 (edited) How do you guys know they are the jugs that came on the bike? lol They arent haha. I should have said the're stock specs. For example, stock from another bike. Edited August 8, 2008 by Mitch Quote
TeamRealtreeHD Posted August 8, 2008 Report Posted August 8, 2008 They arent haha. I should have said the're stock specs. For example, stock from another bike. If that is the case, and you knew that before you came and asked us.... with the jugs not being the ones that came on it... DON'T BUY Quote
BenBB Posted August 8, 2008 Report Posted August 8, 2008 you can go 90 and 100 over. and 91 shees are A-arm. My mistake, thanks for the correction. I shoulda said if it's 80 over it's only got one more bore (ok technically 2 but I've always had to go 20 over at a time due to either damage or ovaling). There was a blue Banshee for sale here locally (I dunno an '01 or '02) I stopped and talked to the guy, it had a few bolt ons like pipes & filter. I ask him what bore it's on and he says 80 over (and stock porting), I'm like damn did you blow it up or just ride the piss out of it, he says naw I just wanted more power...uhhh okay... Quote

flyhighprerunner Posted August 9, 2008 Report Posted August 9, 2008 Mitch- I might have missed it but did you say that this is your first banshee? Quote
xXBlessedWithDeathXx Posted August 9, 2008 Report Posted August 9, 2008 very nice. looks like mine at one time :biggrin: Quote
Mitch Posted August 9, 2008 Author Report Posted August 9, 2008 (edited) Mitch- I might have missed it but did you say that this is your first banshee? Yup. My first banshee. Give me all the tips you can. Big step up from a 300ex! haha. This thing flat out rips. Those RZ gears are almost TOO much. 16 tooth front sprocket on top of that. I seriously only need first in trails. Haha. Edited August 9, 2008 by Mitch Quote
ClimbAnyHill Posted August 9, 2008 Report Posted August 9, 2008 I'm looking at a mint 2001 right now for 2 G's! YOu should be paying less out there.. But sometimes money doesn't matter if the machine is good and you like the bike! First things first, check compression and bore to see what kind of like that top end has left in it. Definately take it for a spin! Stand it up and inspect the frame around the welds too! I would still offer $1500! Quote
