  1. where is the feedback review on these cylinder kits? In europe they would sell very well as there is very little good second hand cylinders available and junkers regularly advertised for $800 So if the quality and reliability matches the oem parts then these would do well, it does seem a missed opportunity to have not improved the design and save machining costs down the line ie: bigger waterways as suggested
  2. i use the maxxis razr 2 on motocross tracks in the uk and they work great for me when it's wet also great and hard wearing when the track is dry hardpack dirt and gravel. wet grass is the slipperiest surface known to man
  3. +1 on this idea and if anyone does this it must be yamaha. can they ignore the emission aspect if it is a offroad only machine?
  4. i run standard airbox with snorkel and modded lid mesh covered hole and a K&N cone filter with outerware pre filter. i found this is pretty much the only setup that works for use on a wet MX track, it still can suck in a bit of water if you hit something really deep.
  5. if the picture is fresh off your phone or camera then it is going to be a huge size, a great free software tool i use is Irfanview it is a free photo program http://download.cnet.com/windows/photo-editors/3150-2192_4-0.html once installed you can resize your pictures (match your desktop size) then you need to upload the resized picture files onto a webhost such as photobucket or post the link code into your post
  6. They quote that they have a lifetime warranty so even if they were worn out after a season of use then they would replace free of charge. i have not tore down my shee yet to fit them but if you were worried they could walk down the arm spindle then you could mod the arms with small grub screws perhaps? from memory i am pretty sure my lonestar arms are machined at the ends so have a step, will take some pictures when i do the job for future reference I have the parts in my hand and quality looks great, will see how well they stand up compared to the plastic ones which only lasted a year with the quad being used around motocross tracks.
  7. pivot works sell a needle roller bearing kit with a lifetime guarantee part numbers for banshee are PWAAK-Y02-000L Lower A-arm (does both sides) PWAAK-Y01-000U Upper A-arm (does both sides) just bought a set to fit during my winter rebuild
  8. To compare the FMF vs DMC on a stock engine i have had both and the DMC win hands down every day all day long for me, as a compromise as all pipes will be the DMC just work great. if i was riding mainly twisty trails then the FMF work just great for that style riding. We gotta all admit though a lot of why we love certain pipes is down to the sound they make and again for me the DMC 916 sound fantastic with a intoxicating yowl you just want to keep it pinned all day long
  9. I have the motion pro kit and i could have sworn i got it from ATV galaxy but it may have been from their ebay store rather than website direct. it has been a really great bit of kit not had any problems with it at all.
  10. i love the idea of a EFI banshee never mind all the turbo nonsense i do wonder though what this setup would be like running a supercharger
  11. what type of soil you running in? my local track is a very heavy clay mix and outwears and pod filters could not cope they were soaked in 4 laps, why do you find that hard to believe ? would love to run pods as there is a obvious performance gain but it is not possible where i ride
  12. i tried pod filters + outwear pre filters at my local mx track and managed about 4 laps before getting problems with the carbs sucking up crap i went back to the standard airbox and modded the lid works great i did look at the K&N powerlids but heard mixed reviews
  13. Spare engine is now rebuilt and back in the quad and running nice just a standard spec rebuild for now just debating on tackling the worn swing arm pivot bearings just know that it is going to turn into a nightmare lol
  14. doing it now will save you having to strip the arms down to grease them in the future,
