shawn941 Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 ok i get that u gotta stay on the throttle but when we raced we tried from a dead stop and no win. then we were rolling along eaven and both gave er at the same time and he just pulled away. i hit it and shifted as fast as i could it was screaming i dont car who is riding it there is something that isnt right. im not the best rider but im not bad enough to be beat by a 400z. i should be able to play with it shouldnt i? i held it to the bar and it wasnt gonna rev anymore and he was pullin away quick. imo there should be no competition. your right,,,there shouldnt be the slightest problem at all,,,even with a stock banshee you should pull away heavily against a stock 400 4 stroke. if it runs and revs good,,,you have gotta be having clutch isuess to where its not engaging all the way and slipping badly. is there any play in the clutch lever or is it tight?

randytbo Posted May 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 im not questioning my riding ability i know i can ride well enough to beat the 400. eaven if i was a shitty rider i should be able to catch up once i hit 6th but he just kept pullin away. ill have a look at the clutch today but doesnt feel like its slipping. should i be running a 280 or a 300 main? im thinkin a 260 is too small. would running lean make that much difference?

Snopczynski Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Where you riding a banshee? Or where you riding an 1984 kxt bored .80 over, with a +49 swingarm, backwards paddles, on vp 113 oxygenated, and a picture of the hulk on the tank?

banshee_terror_ Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 you think its your jetting its not. maybe the 400 is modded but your friend is liying to you. and yah i start in 3rd im 130lbs i can start in 5th on pavment with 4psi in my tires with holeshots and still spinn them. but you should feel if your clutch is slipping by cruzing in gear and flooring it and if you dont have any pickuo or its slacking and the motor reves up a bit before you take off its your clutch but yah tire diffrence matters. if he had paddles on sand and you have razrs your loosing. practice your driving your quad shouldnt be lossing. and switch bikes like someone else said that should be intresting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
