  2. A-arm Powder Colors?

    in Banshee Repairs and Mods

    Posted

    Ok, I just got my 2nd check in and the money is burning a got damd hole in my pocket. Seeing as how my right a-arm has a dent/bend in it (tie rod is outa wack--pulls to the right a little now). I Need to get new a-arms, I have the choices nailed down to wicked, jd or quicksand (in no order). I was thinking black pc'd lowers w/ chrome uppers. Or should I get both of them pc'd?? I would like to get black w/ blue flake powdercoat.... can they do that??? BTW: My shocks are already setup for +2's (I hope) and will I need new brake lines??

    That's what happends when stupid people get aholt of booze..... it ends up getting aholt of them. I have not once drank myself to puking or pissing/shitting on myself like a beligerant fool. Matter of fact I can count my number of hangovers on one hand.

  8. Hangover Cures

    in General Banshee Discussion

    Posted

    Seeing as how last night was new years eve and I did a way too much drinking, which awarded me with the worst got damd hangover in history. Well I have a cure that has worked for me every time.... quick, fast, and easy. Here it is:

     

    Go grab you 2-4 tylenol/advil (headache shit)

    20oz. 7up

    Shake the 7up untill all the carbonation is out

    Pop the pills and slam the 7upyours

    I like to stack a breakfast sandwich on top of that just to ease the gut.

     

    Less than 10-15 mins later i'm a changed man, thought my banshee bro's would like to know this tip. If you have a remedy of your own post it up.

  10. Ds-650 Vs Banshee

    Boonman i see you ride a stock shee, is that any indication of your level of riding experience, I have 22years riding and numerous different machines so please let a man speek.

     

     

    LMMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: I almost fell out of the chair on that one. I am curious where you saw my "stock" shee? Believe me, I have PLENTY of experience racing a whole lot of things with engines. Alot of different styles of racing as well. TT, MX, drag, cars, trucks, motorcycles, snowmobiles. Quite an extensive background I might add. And come to think of it, in all the time I've been here, I have never listed some of them like I just did. It has never been a question. But, I now feel it was in question. Anyways, I do not ride a stock bike. That is in my sig to throw people like yourself ("newbies") off the scent of my roost so to speak. And even if I did ride a stock bike, I could lay a serious whoopin' to alot of modded bikes, depending on what we were racing on. So, i wouldn't go around talking like that. (about having a stock machine pointing to a rider's ability)

     

    Screamen Demon listen to who is talking shit like a kid, try some mx style racing and see how good all that traction is when trying to exit a corner at 30mph plus with all the trotle you got, you will want wheel spin, its how you win races.

     

    I can't speak for screamin demon here, however I have raced MX. I know what it takes to win. And I believe you have something confused. Wheel spin does not win races. unless it is a race to see who can bake off the tires first. What you are talking about is sliding. Two different things. What happens when you come off this hypothetical turn at 30 MPH, spinning like crazy. The dude on the thumper slides through the corner, with the AWESOME useable motor he has, and then hooks up ON DEMAND, and smokes right on by your crazy tire burning, wheel spinning monster? I'll enlighten ya. You lose the race. Riding a four stroke in MX is the best thing you can do. Especially with the technology in them today. I can say that I will never race my shee again in MX. I will wait untill I can run a thumper. They have a linear power delivery, that you can do with what you please. So what you are trying to tell me in your above quote is that just because a bike is a 4 stroke it can't slide through a turn? Now I KNOW that ain't the case. And it will take you an assload of mods to keep up with a stock 450. :blink: When both riders are of equal ability. You could stick $2,000 into a brand new shee, and still not be able to keep up with a stock 450 on an MX track. I know this to be true. Now, I am sure there will be the oddball in the group that is gonna try to tell me otherwie. However, I am speaking of riders of EQUAL ability. So, none of this rider makes the difference slander. :unsure:

    NO Lube...just straight reaming.

  12. Ringtones?

    in General Banshee Discussion

    Posted

    Wheres a good place to get free/cheap ringtones on-line?? Every site I've found charges 2.99/min and an average call is 2.5 mins!! I know...call me a cheap bastard but I don't want to pay that for something so small. BTW: My phone is a motorola t720.

  13. Blew A Hole In Piston

    in Banshee Repairs and Mods

    Posted

    Looked like someone shot the piston w/ a 12 gauge slug/bb shot combo. One big DENT w/ little pits all around the piston(greater towards the exhaust port). The ring holders/rings were ground/melted smooth together on the front (exhuast side) of the piston. You MIGHT (same chance I took) be alright w/ just draining the fluid twice b4 start up and installing a magnetic drain plug(catches debri). Then changine it again during and after break in.

    You will NEED to split your cases, I got away w/ out it b/c when detonated my piston skirt did not break nor did my piston shatter. Seeing as how you have detonated TWICE you will need to split the cases.

    Sounds like detonation to me.... do a google search on your elevation.  w/ that +4 timing advance and 20cc domes, you should be AT LEAST 1000ft. above sea level on 93 octane.  I run 20ccdomes on 93 at 850ft....... One piston has a hole in it.... the other one is pretty bad off right?? Prolly wouldn't hurt to step up a main size or 2.

    Yea....the other side was also starting tp burn. I just did a search on my elevation, and it says i'm 100ft. above sea level.

    OH DAMD!!! I detonated once b/c of 18cc domes on 93 at my elevation....100ft!! w/ the +4, 20cc domes and the 94 octane=KABOOM!!. That combo puts you about 180psi(maybe higher I don't know too much about the timing advance).... the breaking point for 93/94 octane is 157-165psi. That's about the psi I detonated at. If you want to keep your setup then run at least 100octane... if you still want to run 94octane then drop down to a 22ccdome.

    His name is MRMATT....just PM him and he'll reply with all you need to know. BTW: THAT ARM IS NOT A 100$ SPECIAL!!. Duece paid and extra 100$ or so for it to look that pretty. Matt bondo'd the welds, primered and painted it for him. That's still a GREAT deal considering the aftermarkets are AT LEAST 550$.
