  1. Not specifically directed towards mx1986's build but I'd like to hear opinions of what exactly needs to stay (and how much of it) to constitute "stock" frame.
  2. PM an email address and I'll get some shots to you after work tomorrow.
  3. All is brand new and never been bolted on. Copies of the 12/2013 purchase invoices will be included with the sale. Black anodized Chariot stator cover with the transmission output shaft support bearing and special nut plus all hardware / gasket received when purchased. Also includes JD's engine support for the Banshee (*unplated*) Was purchased before anodizing was offered. I paid $298.50 to Jerry for the cover and $80.00 to JD for the engine support. I'll take $300.00 for it all shipped in the lower 48
  4. Yes, Brooke is no longer with us. http://www.bchfh.com/book-of-memories/995929/Walton-Brooke/obituary.php
  5. Steubenville Ohio - Your about 2 1/2 hours south of me. I raced three times last summer at Friendship Raceway Park (the old Steel Valley). Nice country around there. As for the tranny, You've toasted something so the cases need split. Take a good close look at it all including the contact area of the 3rd wheel gear and output shaft surface. That's an inherently weak area in a Banshee transmission and also receives poor lubrication even when you have in it lol. On the positive side... A good used tranny can be had these days for $100 - $125.00 so you can get it all for less than what a single new gear and shaft would be.

    Stock cases

    Lots of work...Very nice
  7. I have one of those nuts. Brand new, never bolted down. PM me with an offer. I'm leaving for a weeks vacation Saturday (11/8) so if it's not sold by the time I leave I'll reply when I get back based on date/time shown on any messages received. Thanks

    Pump style PWK

    Anyone have or know of an outlet for a pair of NEW 39mm PWK Keihins?
  9. Old guy like me lol... Wow - Congrats on the very nice find. Not many left out there like that.
  10. Nice batch of ATV race video Mike - Wish we had someone filming at our track rather than just trying to sell us still pics lol. To the OP - There are multiple combo's capable of dipping into the 5's in 1/8 mile but in most cases it takes more effort and $$ than the average person is willing to spend. First key is to do a ton of research. Learn as much as you can before you start a build and be honest/use your head about how much time and money you're truly willing and able to spend. Factor it all in - ATV racing is expensive period.... Not only to build and maintain the equipment but track, travel and entry fee's come into play in also. *Don't forget your rider safety equipment* That being said let me throw this out. Over the years I've had some pretty good success and am proud of what I've accomplished given my overall weight and small motors. I talk with quite a few HQ members but rarely post technical information for a variety of reasons. In my opinion there's way to much emphasis given to "fast" numbers. We all want to go faster whether doing 7:0's or 5:90's but I promise that if your looking to be the fastest your going to be disappointed. Truth is, Those fantastic numbers you hear of or that get posted are often not repeated over and over. Usually they come from either a big motored or extremely light setup (another topic) multi-cylinder, snowmo quads or something that's having the snot sprayed out of it that won't live long. Personally I'm more way impressed with a 5.95 alcohol 4mil cub than a 5:40 sprayed 10mil DM. That brings up another thought... The really fast bikes are usually unruly things that can't come out of the hole straight and a slower consistent bike with a good rider would eat up and spit out more often than not in both bracket and heads up racing. The long winded point I'm trying to make is to build yourself a solid, safe, reliable machine that you can afford then get out there, be safe and have fun. In most cases if your willing to work at it low 6's are obtainable without going overboard with exotic builds. A really nice byproduct of the less extreme setups is they're more consistent which is what you really need at most race tracks.
  11. The needle is the same on both a pump and no pump PWK. The seats are non-replaceable with the pumper having a smaller orifice. Like tricked said the inlets are different. Pumper style inlets point down. Not sure if it would always work but I knew of a guy who turned the inlets to point up with a crescent wrench and they didn't twist off or leak. Personally I wouldn't try to "convert" them.
  12. Damn, To bad this was lost...It was epic Banshee HQ fodder!
  13. lol... It would be cool to meet some of the HQ gang but the wife and I are into asphalt and not including our home track we racked up 2580 miles in trips to various race tracks this year with another 250 mile trip planned in the next few weeks.
  14. I think the rightful place for it to fly is at the HQ ride each year.
  15. $65.00 shipped in the lower 48 only http://http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w258/Drag_Banshee/Michigan/100_7848_zps19a1680e.jpg
  16. Brand new HD 19 tooth I'd take $22.00 shipped to the lower 48 only
  17. Yup, I think imbill nailed it. Not real common but I've seen high pressure hoses cause that exact problem in the automotive field.
  18. Yep, Most often from clutch chatter. Steels and fibers can both be broken. We've see it on our asphalt bikes.
  19. Brand new HD 19 tooth in the package. I'll take $22.00 (gifted) shipped priority in the lower 48
  20. We drag race and have track tested a number of different reeds over the years. In a full drag port 358, 392, 421 cub and a ported 4mil Serval V-2's always ET'd fastest on the asphalt but the 4's that we tried on the 4mil Serval was definitely the way to go in all but WOT applications. I love the 2's and have at least 6 sets plus a number of packages of new petals but IMO you should go with the V-4's. They'll be a nice upgrade now and will work really great later in the Serval.
  21. For a stock cylinder 4mil I think that's very respectable. Especially since it sounds like you're just getting started on asphalt. A 500' track is certainly better than no track at all... Lots of guy's here run 300' dirt so what the hell - You do what's available to ya' and it's better than taking it to the street IMO. We run 1/4 mile because that's what's in our backyard.
  22. That's a lot of gear for a 4mil. I've got a brand new HD 19 tooth I'd take $22.00 shipped priority in the lower 48.
  23. We tried quite a few different types and brands in our asphalt bikes with launch limiters and multi-stage clutches and found that Jeff's (FAST RACING) clutch holds up great to the abuse.
