$3000. Last reduction before ebay.

Still available. Price is now $3300obo.

$3400obo.

Selling my baby to fund a street bike purchase. It's a 2001 with less than 4 tanks of gas on a fresh .010" over top end. Also has a new water pump impeller. Quad has FMF Fattys and silencers, Pro Flo air cleaner adapter and K&N filter, 20x11-9 Razer Maxxis rear tires, DG front bumper, DG nerfs and undercarriage skid plates. The quad also comes with a set of Dick Cepek 25x13.5-9 Spider Trac tires, two helmets and a 5 gallon fuel jug. This is NOT a cut-up, stripped down MXer. It's a well cared for Banshee that still has fully functional headlights, etc. It still even has the parking brake on it. I am asking $3500obo. Quad is located in north Jersey. You can see it in either north Jersey or northeastern PA. Thanks. Pic Here

Just got some news today. He's doing much better. His wrists are in worse shape than what the doctors originally anticipated, though. That's still much better than his head injury being more serious than it is, I suppose. His face is still pretty beat up from smashing into the handlebars, but he's talking. They had to take him completely off morphine because he was going into detox. symptoms (cold sweats, etc.). This of course means he will be actually feeling the pain which isn't fun, but it beats becoming addicted. He'll be going through some serious pain when it comes time to start his wrist rehabilitation. He has to relearn how to use his hands. He's also talking about never riding again, but that's pretty normal for a guy who nearly lost his life in a crash. I know I would be rethinking things a bit if I cam up short on a 110 foot triple jump at 70+mph. I think he'll be ridiing again (if his wrists allow him), but don't think he will actually race again. At least not on a competitive level. BTW, he's originally from NJ but moved to Los Angeles a couple years ago. Not sure at what track he crashed at.

Welcome aboard!

Got a call from my uncle yesterday. His nephew, who I grew up with , crashed his CRF450 out in California during a freestyle/jump contest. He came up short on a 110 foot jump attempt, snapped both wrists upon landing and smashed his head on the handlebars (he was in full gear as usual). They rushed him to the hospital where they put pins in his wrists to hold them together. His brain is also badly bruised. All in all, he's very banged up. He did not wake up after surgery when they expected him to and he also developed a 105*f fever. He finally woke up Monday (crash was Saturday). His girlfriend walked into his room at the hospital after his surgery and immediately got sick right there on the spot...he looks that bad. Scary thing is I got the phone call about an hour after I was doing 3rd gear wheelies on the Banshee. Think someone was trying to tell me something? Becareful out there guys and gals.

As always, this thread is useless wihtout pics!

The biggest thing is getting over the fear of going over backwards. In order to ride wheelies, you have to find the balance point (as mentioned). In order to do this, you need to point the front end of the quad way up in the air, which requires you to be looking at the clouds. I don't know about the rest of you guys, but this was a big issue with me at first. I don't like the feeling of falling backwards, so I struggled with the whole wheelie riding thing. What help me get over it was to try it at slower speeds in first gear (which helped with engine braking which made using the rear brake less critical) in tall grass rather than hard-pack dirt or pavement. Going over isn't fun on any surface, but it is more forgiving doing it on tall grass versus pavement. One of the things that will make things go much easier is your position on the quad. The further back you are on the seat, the easier it is to get the front end in the air. This is also a much more controlled way to do it versus using a lot of throttle and trying to sky the front end with brute power. This is especially true with guys learning how to wheelie. First learn body position and balance. Once you have figured out what you can and can't get away with as far as balance and body position, then you can move on to lofting the front end using power. If you first try riding wheelies using brute power, you will be moving faster which is going to be that much worse if you crash. Start slow, learn proper body position, balance and rear brake control and go from there. Oh, do I really need to mention to wear your gear?

Well, one thing is for sure. It's definately NOT making 192ft/lbs.

Yeah, they must have sucked as riders. My Banshee is no slouch, but my stock CR250 would take the 'shee any time on any surface given equal skill between riders. Congrats on the win.

Sold.

I have a Turbonetics Stage 4 turbo for sale (basically a TE60). It has about 5k miles on it and is very tight. It has a .82a/r turbine housing and a provision for a DeltaGate external wastegate on the turbine housing itself (gate not included). It has no in/out shaft play and very slight up/down movement. Ran 11.57 on a stock engine (with a front mount and 40s) in my Buick T-Type before I took it out. No smoke. Some surface rust on the turbine housing and center section from sitting in the basement. $415 shipped. Pic 1 Pic 2

PM sent with offer.

Unless I am mistaken, the jugs are not ported? Am I correct or are they ported?

PM sent.

Pics of the jugs?

For the winter, I run 370 mains. FMF Fattys, K&N, lid off. Needle stays in 3rd clip position. If I put the lid on, it's stumbles at WOT with the 370s (rich). With the lid off it runs great, so I stuck with 370s. You can also do the choke trick. Warm the engine up and pull the choke out half way (half choke position). If it runs better at WOT with the choke out, you're lean.

I am running 370 mains right now, temps in the 30s, elevation under 1500ft. Mods are FMF Fattys, K&N and no lid. If I put the lid on, it's rich (stumbles at WOT). With the lid off, it rips. Do the choke test. Warm the bike up, then pop the choke out half way (half choke). If it runs better at WOT with the choke, it's lean.

Wow, I actually just checked out Dynojet's website to see what is included in these "kits". What a joke! You guys are right, WAY overpriced. Gonna just order individual jets.

Looking to order a jet kit so I don't have to drive to the stealership every time I need a jet change. Is there a general concensus on the most popular jet kit to buy?

Pics to turbonatr@outdrs.net please.
