kodie Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 im bored and looking around for powervalved cylinders for banshee's. what ones are pv'd? i saw trex who else is putting pv's in their juggs? and how nasty is a pv'd motor? Quote
Handyman Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 Trex, trinity, DM( I think) have PV'd cylinders....as far as how nasty they are... Not really nasty...they will act just like the cubs but with more of a low end due to the PV's in the exhaust port. the PV's are great for duing, trail riding(smaller PV'd motors, well I think) Quote
2001Stroker Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 RZ350 Cheetah RZ350 is what Banshee engines are based off of. Pretty much like a Banshee motor, just with powervalves. There are slight differences with the cases and electrical system though. The pv's run off of electric controller's and servo's. Cheetah is basically a Cheetah DM with powervalves. You get the same race ready cylinder, but with tons of bottom end power. The pv's are run off of exhaust pressure. Powervalved motors are great for trails/hillclimbs. CP Industries Cheetah Quote
moneybags Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 Pritty sure Twister make a powervalve cylinder also. Quote
bassmaster345 Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 I saw these on ebay last night: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_Motorcycle...A1%7C240%3A1318 Quote
2001Stroker Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 I saw these on ebay last night: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_Motorcycle...A1%7C240%3A1318 Yup, that's what the Banshee motor is based off of. If anyone buys them, you needs to get the RZ cases and wiring harness also. Quote
broke Posted March 20, 2009 Report Posted March 20, 2009 you don't need rz cases.. but u will need the wiring and the servos in the jugs Speedy is right. They will fit on Banshee cases. I think the Banshee trans ratios are better than RZ for dirt anyway. If you are even going to do the swap, get the RZ shift forks and drum. Quote
kodie Posted March 21, 2009 Author Report Posted March 21, 2009 are all cheetah cylinders power valved? Quote
moneybags Posted March 21, 2009 Report Posted March 21, 2009 are all cheetah cylinders power valved? NO Quote
Koolguyson Posted March 22, 2009 Report Posted March 22, 2009 Cheetah is basically a Cheetah DM with powervalves. A DM is nothing like a standard cheetah. A huge difference in the two cylinders. Quote
dajogejr Posted March 22, 2009 Report Posted March 22, 2009 A DM is nothing like a standard cheetah. A huge difference in the two cylinders. I've yet to see a power valve DM. They have similar outside castings, that's about it... Bigger intakes, bigger bores, port work is different. The only similarities are they are made by CP. Quote
2strokespirit Posted March 22, 2009 Report Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) RZ barrels fit on banshee cases, but banshee barrels do not fit on RZ cases, they do, but the RZ cases do not have enough material to cover the banshee cylinder's base, the water jacket with the rubber plug of the banshee cylinder will be exposed halfway if used on certain RZ cases, they 29L RZ cases is the same as the Banshee ones..

DopeyTripod Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 what machine are rz 350 cheetas from?? Quote
dajogejr Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 what machine are rz 350 cheetas from?? No such cylinder. They make RZ350 cylinder (Factory OEM with electrical controlled power valves) OR they make a Cheetah (Cheetah cylinders use a spring pressure controlled power valve) Cheetahs are made by an aftermarket company called CP Industries.

SLORYDER Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 I love my 521 Cheetah for hillclimbs and duning. Power delivery is super smooth and propels you effortless around the dunes, without having to worry about shifting every 3 seconds. Kinda like I'd imagine a turbo raptor to run like. Or a 600cc streetbike, minus the first 5k rpm's You lose that violent on/ off powerband though. Quote
