38mm single - great results

Just wanted to throw on here that I had the banshee out at Little Sahara this past weekend. Passion aggressive dune ported cylinders, VForce 2 reeds into the 38mm pwk and a pod, milled head for 93 pump, with Paul Turner High Revs and 6.5* advanced timing. Have always used the 35mm and wanted to try a 38mm for better top end but was worried about the low and midrange. I'd have to say that this carb fits the dune port and high rev pipes perfectly. Had enough low /mid to cruise, upper mid was strong and was able to pull out easily into the power. The power hit very strong and revved out good, not as high as CPIs / Shearers obviously but revved out well; handled itself well against other bikes. Very very pleased with the 38mm. Ended up with a 200 main and EEK needle on the 4th.

 

Point of this build is to have a low-key simple bike that runs much harder than someone would first think, kinda sleeper-ish and so far it fits the build. Might put a +2 swinger on it but not sure if the bike will benefit. The triple buff 21" 7 paddle extremes worked very well on this bike also, seemed to be the right paddle given the stock swinger; front end lift was an issue but easily overcome. Some 8 paddles would be ideal I think but may need the swinger. not sure what else to do to get another little bit of power out either... racking my brain on what i may be missing.

this is great to hear, my shee should be up and kicking in like 2 weeks, ive had a few wrong parts sent to me.

 

i also have a 2 into one carb kit, but im going to be running the 35 at first and will step it up later. for my pipes i have the mids and will be running a +4 with a dynatech igniton on top of using my sick new flywheel and lockup clutch from the guys over at direct drive. also i have v2s for reeds and a 200w rm stator. :) cant wait to feel the power at the bottom!!!

I had the flywheel on my last bike lightened and i definitely would like to get another. you got yours from direct drive? try +6 or +7 on the timing, there's a noticeable feel between +7 and +4. Also, rm stator, can you explain that a little, where are you getting that?

 

 

I'm also wondering how the bike would do with a +2 or +4 swingarm and a little more paddle. This bike needs to maintain some trail-ability some as well, so can't go too long.

you must of made a reading error, the lock up clutch is from direct drive, the flywheel is from ebay. i herd +7 kills your topend and i will be running a programmable igniton, so should i be able to retard and advance as i please? i dont wanna set my bike up for one thing, i wanna be versitile.

oh, ok. sounded like your flywheel and clutch both came from direct drive.

 

dunno, my top end is kickin with that setting. i have better midrange as well and it pulls out of the midrange better. but i might play with it some more, try it again and see.....
