man am i forgetfull tonight

forgot the dog bone $20

ask questions ill be happy to answer. Stock Crank $95 Wavy Rotor with pc Hub $60 PC steering stem with handle bars $55 Stock '99 CDI $45 Front spindles hubs calipers ect $60 all prices are shipped thanks im located in ny

sounds like a timing issue. try 0 then +4. see what happens and if thats not it, you maybe have one clogged carb. check it out gl

around 1300, linkage is like 500 and shock is like 800.

im glad you ask loco, now it wont seem like im bragging. the stock banshee uses a casted aluminum dog bone vs elkas full billet assembly. the dog bone has a dome cut into it to clear a larger diameter spring. the linkage itself is much larger/longer. i have a picture somewhere ill find it. the stock banshee only has 220mm of travel or 8.66141732 inch. Elka claims 11.25, +2.59 inch increase. a few other reasons is it looks hot & comes w/ its own removable skidplate. to throw a few numbers on the topic a yfz has 10.1 inch of travel, a trx250r has 9.1 inch. i could ramble on and on but overall your making your banshee have more travel than what it was originally design for. no one else offers it so elka just runs the show, maybe the sponsors should step up to the plate and contest elka.

i have one, you cant just get the link, you also need the shock. elka wouldnt market a part if it didnt do what they want it to do. i like mine, and wouldnt go back to stock. but they are very expensive as loco and you already no. very high quality stuff, the dog bone even has its own skid plate.

My entire banshee addictins started when I caught sight of dumont dunes. Obv they were only pictures but once I seen them I bought a banshee and had my mind set on dumont. I never got there, I decided to sink all my money into building my banshee so it be reliable. I'm alomost what I consider done and would love to take a trip out west, be sure to pm me when this happens I'm game.

yupp. lonestar is sick no doubt but its like buying parada

i original seen the idea brought up by chariot performance asking the HQ about dual piston calipers. so me being impatient, i cant wait for chariot performance. a few people have already successfully swapped out there banshee calipers with trx250r and chimed in on chariots post. i got the general idea of what was involved, but i jumped into this blind and came out on top. So heres what i did. First off your going to need a round house banshee swingarm, otherwise this will not work. given you have the correct swingarm arm you will also need a trx250r brake stay, C ring puller, 4 washers, trx250r caliper, bench grinder and Hybrid rotor. Step 1. you will notice when you receive you brake stay that there is a milled spacers on the surface. this has to be removed in order to fit on your carrier. i used a bench grinder and grinded little at a time until it was perfect. after you grind it, it should look like this and fit like that. Step 2. so after you have your brake stay on and you axle back on, you will notice your caliper will not bolt on. this is because the banshee brake hub will not clear the caliper, and modification is required again. i took my bench grinder and ground about a half inch into the alumium and made an arch effect. Step 3. Step 3 should be pretty self explanatory. you will need 2 pairs of washers to shim out the caliper from brake stay, bolt your custom disc onto your hub, check your hubs clearance with the caliper, bleed brakes and tighten everything down and enjoy. here are some pics of the spacing of the washers, and some various other comparisons pics. and a few comparisons pics that i borrowed from the site. my rotor was cut by JDS or 87sheerips, honda used a 7.10inc disc vs yamahas 8.5inch, this increases ground clearance while adding braking performance. contact him for your own! my purpose for writing this is to help out anyone whos fed up with yamahas shitty rear brakes. it always nice to have directions when staring a project so you dont have to learn the hard way, gl and enjoy

so 87sheerips and i have been working with each other for the past week and a half, designing & revising a custom rotor to complete my banshee->250r rear caliper swap. this wasn't a bolt and go mod, the rear disc is only 7.10 inch big vs 8.5 inch that yamaha offered. so after some ideas i ended up using a similar pattern to the other members who've also done the swap. the rotor is sick. i havent bolted it on yet, but i will later tonight. if your interested in doing the swap i will be doing a how to after i have if 100% working. also contact JDS if u want a rotor, im sure he still has the design saved.

nice swingarm drewski

i also own a boss billet sprocket hub, its pretty nice actually. i wouldnt call them junk, they make some decent parts for the price. you get what you pay for.

bought a billet brake hub off ebay for i think 60 bones shipped. it arrived fine, looked nice but wouldnt sit flush on my lonestar axle. it was only like a 1/8 gap so i had to grind it with a bit to allow slide to the end of the axle. all is good now, but its always a downer seeing parts being cut and ground straight out of the package. i would of returned it but idc enough its fine now lol

still waiting on the engine and the weather..

caliper sold.

i run keihin, i guess what sold me was the idea of the airstriker having built in velocity splitters. i dont think mikuni offers a carb like this and if they did it be hard to see a difference.

Sorry, I'm not trying to sepertae hub from rotor.

I've owned a droid since xmiss when I bought it as a present fo self after losing my samsung omnia riding my shee. I can't even beggin to tell u how my phones I've lost this way. The andrioid has a remote gps tracking divice, so this will never happen again. I'm aleay on my phone and if u see me posting pics or replaying to topics its all via my andriod. The android is what sarah oconner talked about and whaat her son is destined to destory. Fuck the iphone go for the open source andriod

Rotor and caliper still for sale

Its funny all you who've said no don't own a set. I happen to own them but ill go ahead and say no too, only because the question asked about drag racing and not riding. Pt pipes are bad ass I owned both and like the high revs better. For drag racing its obvious you'd want something like the cpis. I intended on building my shee at first for drag but going in a stright line wasn't my thing.

Sweet, I'm excited to see the special rotor I've requested.

Ya I have a lot of banshee tattoos on the back of my legs from the days when I was using t6 pipes. I once did something just as stupid on my quadzilla and crack the foot peg using my knee cap, no bs I saved the foot peg. It hurt like a sob but somehow I didn't brake anything but I was alittle limpy for a few days.
