jeepman137 Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 lol, screw that, good find, but long as hell, i just skimmed the article and it was very informative... Quote

Justintoxicated Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 not much usefull here since it specificaly talks about 4-pokes... I was hoping it would talk about pre-mix or 2-stroke case oil.... Rather it goes on about oil filters and lifters n such....Maybe I'm missing something but I don't think much of this information can be applied to a 2-stroke other than to use synthetic oil over petro based Quote
locogato11283 Posted February 25, 2005 Report Posted February 25, 2005 more ppl would read that if the guy just got to the damn fuckin point... Quote
Justintoxicated Posted February 25, 2005 Report Posted February 25, 2005 again this guy says with amsoil and a proper filter you can go 15,000 miles on your oil! I dunno about doing that on a banshee! or any performance vehicle....Maybe in my truck or something...But I do not think this applies to 2-strokes. If So that would mean you NEVER need to change the oil in the banshee case. And having a magnetic drainplug that collects all the filings floating aorund I would definately not recomend even pushing 1000 miles before an oil change! Quote
RNBRAD Posted February 25, 2005 Author Report Posted February 25, 2005 Justin, try to think "outside the box". Just because they don't use Banshee in the article doesn't mean it cannot apply. The recommended drain interval for a car is 3k miles, no one rides even that many miles before they change thier case oil on the banshee. Try to think in relationship terms. If you normally change your regular oil every 10 hours of ride time, you could theoretically go 30 hours with a synthetic. Try to apply it in your specific situation and skip the literals. No they don't freakin mean run your banshee 15000 miles and then change your oil. Does it apply for 2 strokes? It absolutely does for me!! Quote

GOOD FIND none the less, very informative... Quote
racer Posted February 25, 2005 Report Posted February 25, 2005 try to think "outside the box" 329312[/snapback] finally someone who sees things for more than face value. Quote
