shogs Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 I see a lot of people on here with pics of them doing wheelies and stuff like that. I have holeshots that are still pretty new and the only thing I can ever get my shee to do is spin the tires or go to bog down (meaning i either give to much gas or not enough). While I'm posting i figured id also ask about my clutch. I saw a nice set of asv's for 160 on ebay that i might get. Will that make it easier on me shifting at all other than it being adjustable. I thought If I got one id get new bars, grips, and a clutch cable. Also are the clutch kits what makes it easier to shift? By the way I'm not too into stunting or anything im just wondering why it seems that way. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamRealtreeHD Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Banshee's are tough to learn wheelies on... tricky. But once you get the hang of it, you'll be riding them in no time. ASV's are good levers. I felt the ASV's and they are alot easier... ALOT! But I found a MAGNUM lever and perch that works just as good. For $20. I have heavy duty clutch springs, etc. that made the stock perch almost impossible to ride. This MAGNUM EZ-Pull is cake to pull... 1 finger is all you need. And it is a fraction of the price of ASV.

SandRageShee Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 for the spinning issue. what gearing do you have? i run a 13 on the front and a 42 on the rear and with my bald razrs in soft dirt,sand mix i can still get it into a wheelie with just goosin it and jerking the bars and planting my ass on the seat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shogs Posted August 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Thanks guys I'm not exact of my gearing im gonna check soon...the guy who sold it to me said it was clocked at 126 so it could be geared really high....I found out the guy didnt put the chain guards and bearing back on the swing arm : /. I was also wondering if anyone could help about handle bars...The ones on it are very uncomfortable for me. I have a z400 and those bars are a lot easier to use...but then again i have 1 inch spacers on my shee at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way I'm not too into stunting or anything im just wondering why it seems that way. Thanks there are several things you can do to make it shift easier. modded shift shaft and shift star. i've tried both of those and liked the modded shift shaft with easy spring better. you can get these from fast racing. or you can get an override transmission, which has been by far the best transmission mod to date. do a search.

shogs Posted August 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 126? holy fuck. um that has me lost. what else is done to the bike? I never said I believed it but im definitely willing to find out....Today my tie rod came out from the ball joint piece. Its got spacers on it right now so I wanna get 2+1 swingarms and shocks but dont know how much is a good amount to throw down. I'll do some research. I just hope if i put the money down things wouldnt continue to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travis6767 Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 the a arms and shocks depend on what kinda riding you do? trails,dune,mx,hill climb? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shogs Posted August 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 the a arms and shocks depend on what kinda riding you do? trails,dune,mx,hill climb? I do trail riding mixed with jumps so I guess mx and trails is what id be aiming at. As of right now im not satisfied with not having nerfs, the handle bars, the heaviness of the clutch pull, and the a-arms. Other than that its great ! :biggrin: ..The suspension is good considering its stock I just know that since i took the spacers off I might feel more comfortable with 2+1's.

Do they come with tie rods or do I need to get my own? Also if i get the 450 shocks will they be good to go or will I need to have them adjusted for the banshee 2+1's?
