  1. He wouldnt get 5 for it here, Our friend just sold his 2007 Assembled title Redline 421 cub for 6,000. Bike was built from frame up every part was brand new and dyno'd at 112 on alky.
  2. 45 hp on a ported shee sounds low to me, i was told to expect 60-70 on mine with a agressive dune port by quite a few people But you know how that goes. I bet your pulling in the 50's atleast.
  3. If you have no pref to dune or drag, most people will say go ITP Sand Stars, I had them on my shee and there a blast and reasonably priced, I recently switched to haulers and for the most people besides needing a little more body movement to kick it around there not much worse for duning
  4. I thought you already ordered your cub and had previously talked with jeff about what was being done?
  5. I would say that 35mm is far to large of a carb but thats not the reason why you lost, I got my ass handed to me buy a 2007 stock yfz with a 70lb kid on it. They are decently quick
  6. First kick normally, sometimes second. My wifes shee is a hard ridden 96 and it starts third kick
  7. Yeh dont worry to much, 400ex's are about the most unfast bikes out there, I had one until 2 weeks ago, it was my wifes who is to scared to get out of 3rd on my shee and she said the 400 wasnt fast enough so we traded for a shee.
  8. If your bogging off the line your not giving it enough throttle, I hold my throttle pinned and dump it with a little feathering, When I did my timing advance and v-force reeds, the power delivery of the bike was alot different, whether is gave me a bunch of HP who knows, but the seat of the pants dyno approved.
  9. That shit sucks man, I was just reading about that big layoff coming for country wide a few days ago, sucks it had to be one of the fellow banshee lovers! Move up here, our housing market is up from last years still hot as ever, my wife works for century21 and I work for all the real estate company's doing there sign work. And the dunes are 5 minutes from my door step! Good luck to you
  10. Of all the 450's I beat the 450r more consistantly than all the others with just my bolt on banshee, +4 timing and milling the head will get you off the line quicker.
  11. Putting a long travel on that new rhino are ya?
  12. I had just left to goto hauser about 5 minutes before the accident happened, I cant believe he only got 16 stitches, Lucky bastard. The guy driving the rail was still in the hospital as of monday though, he had a heart attack.
  13. I was at boxcar fri/sat and sun
  14. If ya end up going out let me know in a PM, I will come out in ride if I havnt sent my motor out to redline by then.
  15. Ok well when you get them just send me a pm or something, very interesting in the crank
  16. Any pics of the crank? Bearings all good? no play in it?
  17. I dont know alot of about banshee's just enough to get by, But what I am noticing is these big drag bikes have quite a few quirks and stuff and judging from the kind of questions your asking your gonna have a hell of time trying to keep up with that bike. Just my 2 cents!
  18. Well I had an interesting day, Went to meet a guy at the dunes to trade my wifes 400ex for his banshee, I got there abit early so I decided to go on one last ride on the thing. So I decide to hit up some trails which I never ride because my banshee sucks so bad in them but since I was on the 400 I figured what the hell. Well about 15 feet into the trail I am coming around a corner and bang guy on a bike right there hauling ass. Completly mangled the bumper smashed the plastics broke the headlight out, Put the handle bar right in my gut as I was going over. All in all I ended up with a nasty bruise/abrasion on my stomache and I think I pulled my pelvic muscle. Funny thing is the guy who hit me not a scratch on his bike, but he broke his hand. And to top it off, The guy traded me anyways I just took alittle less cash on the deal so it worked out! Edit: If it hadnt of been for the bumper the frame would of been totalled so I am putting my bumper back on my bike tonight, I dont care how stupid it looks.
  19. I would buy some if the design is good, I like black!
  20. Isnt that motor alittle much for 8 paddle haulers
  21. Yeh I meant to ask if you thought it might be off, I will still check it out just for some insurance.
  22. Wife is tired of being left in the dust on her 400ex, Going to pick up a banshee tommorow for her, It has FMF Fatties on it now but there is terrible shape, I am gonna pick up some brand new ones for her as well, Do you think I will need to check the jetting going to a brand new set?
  23. I dont know your elevation but I would say with 20cc domes with no timing advance your more than ok to run 93 Premium, But as everyone else will tell, Check your compression.
