Work was called off, so spent the day in shop. Now have a roller and assembled motor. New jets are on their way and some odds and ends. Looking good for May long weekend. Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk

Work was called off for weather (perfect) and parts arrived so spent the day doing final assembly. Domes are 21cc squish is .037 if I did it correct. Just letting motor sit while away allow yamabond to cure a bit . Leak down tester set up ready to go. Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk

Depending on your time line, since the bike is new to you and not much detail from the seller of type of porting performed, you might be leaps ahead to at least split the case and do an inspection, since you have the top end off. Never know what you may find, plus you can insure your crank is welded. Reassemble if all looks good. Your only out a set of gaskets. I'm currently doing a rebuild and glad I took some extra steps to insure reliability. Like others have said at min have a machinist check your cylinders. I put a Wiseco piston set in my build. Prob not the best piston out there but reliable. Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk

They do have a lot. But needed a few other parts and like to buy as much as I can for site sponsors. Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk

Good point, plus part guy here has a hard time with performance 2 stroke parts, has only dealt with 4 stroke stuff. But ordered an array of jets and some other goodies from F.A.S.T. Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk

Awesome Thank you. Search via Google made life a bit easier to find info. Taking your recommendations and Read a bunch of checking squish last night, seems pretty straight forward will be checking when back, next week, plus compression Does yamaha offer pilot jet sizes up to 30. Parts guy here had a hard time finding part number for 27.5 pilot. Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk

Confirmed with builder good to go with pump gas, jetting as previous stated 330 and 27.5 to start. Have to say customer service from all sight sponsors is impeccable along with BHQ community. Sent questions and had reply in an hour. I'm still waiting to hear back from a local shop regarding a-arms and suspension from a month ago with two follow up calls. Should motor break in be best done at 0 degree of timing. Previous owner had bike set at +2 on timing plate and +2 on the adjustable CDI. Adjustable CDI has been replaced with a new OEM unit. Sorry for the mass of questions. I try to get every thing sorted in my head before getting back at it.

My bad on dome size (not sure where I got 19cc from)just went through old emails to double check. Domes are for pump gas according to invoice but not sure of size. Sent off email to double check size of them which will more then likely be a lower compression dome. When I get back from work next week, is there a way to tell how many cc domes are I'm drawing a blank if they were part marked or not. That said once back and finish assembly will see what compression is. Also found out that they may be training with work in San Diego in July and Aug. Is this a good time to ride in the dunes or is it to hot, and are there ATV rentals that are close to the area.

Been trying to keep a good pace going with this rebuild as of lately. Been finding great info on here for motor breakdown and rebuild and clymers is a life saver. Any tips on how to stream line search function within BHQ for a specific topic? This past weekend I dug into and went over the motor internals and now have some time before replacement parts show up and reassemble. Found all shift forks were bent and scorched (what causes this) and a 10 year old clutch that thinks it from the 70's getting its groove on. So here are my stupid questions followed after current build list 2007 Banshee with OEM Cylinders at 64.5 bore with MX hardcore porting, new stock length true and welded crank Chariot head with 19cc domes, Chariot reed cage and clutch pancake thingy and water pump cover ( Chariot intake with internal crossover for future build), Mull Engeering water pump gear, impeller, shift star, and shift bearing mod and new shifter shaft with mod. All bearings, seals in entire motor replaced, upgraded bearings clips bushing ect. Stock carbs with tors delete and new intake boots with cross over tube, stock air box no lid with pro design filter and filter mount, FMF Fatty pipes and powercore2 silencers and high capacity rad. Will perform on bench leak down test when reassembled and compression once installed in frame. Ride area is roughly 195M or 639 feet above sea level with temps between -20 to +30 degree C/ -4 f to 86 f, depending on season, humidity always changing ( screw you Ontario climate) 1. 200 watt stator safe to run with new OEM CDI? I assume yes but wanted to see if anyone had heard of any issues of CDI fail rate or issues with high output stator. Have gone through wire harness and bonded rad to motor mount and chassis grounds have been cleaned and hema-sealed, for future Trail Tech install after break in. 2. From reading a jetting start point I'm guessing would be 330 mains, 27.5 pilot, OEM needle middle clip and air screw one turn out from bottom. Any thoughts at this start point. 3. I won't know compression until motor is reassembled so not sure if I will need to mix race gas or not at my riding alt, but still bit confused about this have read to much. Any thoughts? I'm sure there will be more to come once motor is reassembled and installed, but all could go just fine and she fires right up. Also waiting for mother nature to make up her mind. Thanks for all and any input.

Picked up exhaust from BHQ member thank you , still looking for front fender brackets

No always red. Have new fronts just need brackets for them. Risers not sure no name plate or stamp on them, but they are tall. Like riding a lazy boy

In search of front fender supports for both sides does not have to include hardware, cool if it does. Also looking for a set of FMF Silencers for FMF gold series fatty pipes. Most interested in fender supports but if you have silencers collecting dust. Located on Ontario Canada, sucks but what can you do. Will pay shipping Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk

No previous owner tinted the lenses in s half ass attempt to make them look dark with a tint spray paint. That's the next to do is take the lenses to work and clean them back to clear. But lights are in great condition. He had also spay painted the frame black but only the part that was visible. So decided to rebuild Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk

Was able to get a few hours in on her today. Frame pretty much built back up. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2017032 4/9bb58136faecc4185cd615701b6114c0.jpg Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk

I agree satin black is what I will be going with, that would look good.

Thanks for the info. I am on the hunt for a new one now. Hate the thought of a no start in the middle of no where on some goat trail.

Thanks. The shop that did the coating did a great job. Not sure if I'm will be running these yet. Picked up a set of AC nerf bars with heel gaurds and DG bumper yesterday off a local add (trail, MX bike). Not sure if I should powder coat same as frame or satin black? but am using red webbing either way.

Here the oem gaurds re powder coated Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk

I will have pics in about an hour when I get home of the OEM heel gaurds repowder coated. They are the same colour of my frame in my other post of my rebuild.

Will be having a chat with the guys in composite and sheet metal shop next week, I will have have to start saving the cut offs of the carbon fiber weaves from now on.

Yes I'm very happy with it. Was able to match the front stock a-arms color pretty close with spray paint. Next year will be +2 +1 a-arms and suspension. I focused more on the motor to make it for reliable for long bush runs I some times do. Fiber glass hood, did not know such a thing existed. Kind of makes me wonder what I can cook up at work with fiberglass or carbon fiber. We have the vacume bag, and autoclave for custom aviation parts. Mmmmmmmm.

Forgot how much nicer these things are to work on when not covered in mud and grease. Had an impulse buy from cascade , axle lock, rear fender brace and exhaust clamps. I really need to stop searching the repair and mods section in this form. But a big Thank you to the wealth of information and ideas to make these machines even better Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk

Thanks Ayesully810. I'm very happy with it. Matches up nice with the 2007 OEM decals.

Picked up frame this morning from ABC Electro Powder Coating, they are located in Port Hope Ontario Canada. Great company to deal with. You get a tour of the plant pretty much every time you go in. Very happy with the results. Frame colour is a hammered dark silver vein with clear coat. Swinger and axle carrier is a translucent candy apple red. Cylinder are in process of powder coating this week. I will keep adding pictures to this thread as progress continues of frame build up and motor rebuild. Come on summer.
