well whats fucking up lol.... a 4 stroke and 2 stroke are just as reliable but when poorly cared for or improperly rode... either one will break...

He found out Tyler pays big $$$ for blumpkins, dutch rutters and snoodles he's about to quit his job to become Tylers new love monkey

if your just after some bolt on mods... isnt the banshee fastest out of them all (counting only pipes reeds and maybe even some porting) By the time you count in pipe and programmer on a raptor... your pretty well at pipes and porting on a banshee... as for your breaking your 4 stroke all the time??? dont make much sense unless you cant properly maintain it... then if that IS the case the banshee isn't going to do you no good

Nate obviously

whabam.. Tfait with the post of the year lol.... Other then swinging on LSR's nuts a bit too much lol... Also good job on the risers... those rox pivot risers are the bees' knee's I run them myself...
-
Do those friends that say its highly recommended also run YFZ a arms and shocks? lol

Hey I saw you made another post previously as well asking for what crank and what not... If you are doing a full motor re build... i'd HIGHLY recommend you get everything from 1 place, you will save on shipping by a LONG SHOT. been there with just shipping stuff to Canada from the US.... 40$ here for 1 part... another 40$ for another ect.. adds up damn fast. The only thing you WILL have to worry about is customs and the fee's. Usually most shops here know and will lower value or what not on the package so you can save some $$$ on those BS fee's. Seeing you want cylinders as well as a crank... I think this would be an appropriate time to consider a Driveline kit.

yea... i figured you guys partied mostly at one site.. makes things a little easier but non the less I know it can become a hassle... ive brought my keg a couple times... can be an annoyance if its just for 1 night.. but pro longed wasnt too bad. I duno... cased beer is alright.. but when ya want something tasty... sometimes abit of a set up is worthwhile... the next thing I want to try is a corny keg (aprox 60 beers if I remember right) easy to lug around prob would work in a back pack with ice type of deal lol.
-
Spurdy.. im being serious here.... why havent you guys just not the few of you that want GOOD beer pitch in on a KEG of something you like? 6.5 cases of beer in 1 keg and tends to be cheaper... you could leave the heffer where you party with 0 issues... and just buy minimal can beers so you have transportable road pops... Most places rent a keg cooler and co2 tap... fill with ice and its fine for the week usually if out of the sun Can get some good flavorfull beers in micro brews... separate the men from the boys that drink watered down piss beer lol

Works shocks float around for fairly cheap! heck there was a nice clean set fully just serviced front and back for 600$ shipped within the USA on the facebook Banshee page.... I can bet you spent more if not close to 600 bucks for those plastics grab bar and front bumper... There is 0 benefit to spending ANY kind of money on stock yfz shocks... they get by as people say as they "FIT" but it throws everything off along with bump steer ect... like I said you would of been just as well of running the stock shocks.... adjustable? sure but no matter what you do their not going to ride even close to as nice as proper shocks... If your going to spend 750$ on a arms at fireball you would be NUTS to run 100$ shocks. on them.... just my opinion on that one.. You have a crap ton of options for shocks... Ohlins, Fox, Elka, Works, PEP, stadium, axis ect..... always a clean set floating around for cheap usually... Also there would be 0 issues running stage 1 elka's for what you do... 100x better then the yfz shocks thats for sure.... dont get hung up on all that adjustability.... how often are you custom setting your stock rear shock? same would go for the fronts... the only nice thing would be to pay the little bit extra for rebound so you can tweak that between trails and MX... ortherwise everything else would stay the same
-
believe me or not... but its well known.. and no one here is going to disagree with me.... #1 mod the banshee needs the most is proper chassis upgrades.. not half ass cobbled up shit.. then people turn around and complain how poorly it handles... it handles like shit stock.. dont make it worse by throwing shit off a entirely different bike on it lol
-
the YFZ shocks will not properly perform on EITHER stock arms OR LSR's arms... the shocks where not valved or built to be ran on banshee geometry and a amr geometry.... Sure it will look good but thats about it..... You could of been 2x as fast, half as tired and less chances of eating shit with proper chassis set up.... but instead you rather look cool then have something that actually performs properly.. see what im getting at.... may as well chrome everything and leave it on your trailer because its all show no go
-
99% of the people on here will have nothing good to say about running YFZ shocks.. especially for MX.... The valving of the shocks is way wrong and the geo of the a arms wont work well with the shocks... Like I said in my previous post... if you wouldn't of wasted your money on plastics and "bling" that really has no benefit you could of bought yourself a proper set up....
-
Not trying to pick your build apart... but there's a lot of places you shouldn't of spent on... if you wouldn't have.. you would of had 2x the banshee with good suspension all around... instead your going to have flashy parts aftermarket plastics with old ass used yfz 450 shocks and untouched oem rear shock
-
Dont get this the wrong way.... but All those parts you listed that i left above in the list there arn't needed. Ok subtract the skids as you trail ride... i get it... you still have a long list of wasted money on cosmetic stuff you really dont need...when you could be investing in what actually would make a night and day difference You mention MZS clutch and brake levers when you already have MSR's... FMF boost bottle is useless - do yourself a favor and just use the stock cross over. Gas cap? it don't do anything beside looks... and your in dire need of proper suspension by a long shot front bumper and rear grab bar.. again cosmetic... your stock stuff is clean... suspension trumps them 1020% Hide a key? F the key delete it... you have a tether...just keep the tether with you and no one will be able to start the bike if your worried Temporary spacers where a complete waste of cash and time.. you would of been just as good with the standard width as is for the time being until your parts came in. Aftermarket plastics..... With all that wasted money... it would of paid for a set of decent PROPER shocks... or damn close to it. I'd buy alba arms and proper shocks before buying LSR arms and running YFZ shocks... You could of also cut expenses at the axle... LSR axle is about 350... RMATV tusk axle is 200 shipped and offer a lifetime warranty as well. also the tusk comes with a proper locking nut that doesnt come loose after a couple rides like most aftermarket nuts do on aftermarket axles. Just saying.. suspension goes a long way... and when most guys on here see people pissing away cash in areas not needed and then get replies like "suspension isnt in the budget or too expense" but then look at the more so useles trailer queen parts they bought that exceed the cost of proper shocks is mind blogging....
