i run fullflight +2 with my yfz arms and never bent one like that. their customer service and shipping leaves a bit to be desired though. good luck.
-
i havent changed my sig but i went to t5's. but i have ridden bikes with PT highs, cpi's, pro circuits and a few others and all were better than the trinitys. according to trinity they were made for their 421 motor.
-
trinitys have a very narrow powerband. apparently they perform better on larger engines.
-
dmc for sure.

banshee rattles inside the clutch side

i usually clean the bars off with brake cleaner and then spray a little inside the grip. slide it on right away and work any air out. this doesnt work with the crappy gel grips like the tag grips. it worked great on the sunlines on my quad and pro tapers on my bike.

i talked to a guy from trinity and they were apparently designed for trinity 4mil (?) motor. i did not like the way mine performed on my stock bore/stroke. the t5's have way more low end and still pull up top. the trinity's have a very narrow powerband in my opinion
-
was the gas you squirted in the carbs premixed? if not, heres your sign. time for another top end and maybe some bearings.
-
bad ass looking bike. a suggestion on the paint- try an automotive grade paint with a flattener and flex agent. probably cost aroud $100 for everything.
-
what is shipping to 68601?
-
i have a clean up port, smallish pods, t5's, cool head, etc. Im at 145 on the mains. 1450ft elevation. .
-
I also run 2 full quarts of atf and recently had everything apart and the pushrod and ball look perfect. no more false neutrals on the stock transmission. the type F does seem to get dirty faster but at $2.50 a quart its cheap to change.

sand stars act alot like the haulers. i keep them at 6-7psi for playing and 3 for dragging.

yzf450 front end issues.....steering arm length
Coupelx replied to Valin's topic in Banshee Repairs and Mods
i used 3/8 washers for spacers. -
i dont know if it just evaporates faster than other fuels but sometimes the oil would puddle in the bowl of the carb if it sat for a week or 2. i run it with no problems.

Coupelx replied to Valin's topic in Banshee Repairs and Mods
i ordered +2 banshee for mine. got tired of riding toed out. -
soak the domes in gas. it probably works the best for getting the oily 2 stroke skank off stuff.
-
elevation is about 1400. and fuel will be a 50/50 race/pump with castor927 at 32:1. everything was done at once. riding temps say 75*F
-
when i worked at an atv shop we got banshees in for repair that were 10 years old ands beat to hell and just getting their first top end. good oil and jetting and it will run a long time. anyone know what yamaha says to rebuild the 450 at? its a stupidly low number of hours.
