bansheeinoz Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 whats the the best way to beat a ltr 450? With a sledge hammer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECshee Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 Welcome. You better have some l00t layin around if you think your smoking that 450...and what motion pro kit are you installing? Motion Pro makes quite a few different things. Being bored out to .060 wont give you any serious hp gains. Call Brandon at Wildcard Racing and see what he can do for you, as far as porting work. Better get to reading 1000 threads about this. Which after that, you shouldnt have any questions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry's Shee Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 1. Rob bank. 2. Buy parts and porting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RagunCajun Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 (edited) Port job, traction off the line, and learn to drive your bike. Of course other bolt ons will be nice too. Start reading. Edited July 4, 2011 by RagunCajun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheesandrider Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 The easiest and cheapest thing is to just run him off the track/trail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lt500rbigbore Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 pipes, port, K&n, cya later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figuare9 Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 First off, you guys need to run on pavement, second off, you need to learn how to control the power you do have. 9 times out of 10, if you can get the whole shot, you'll get the race. When I ran my "Just piped" banshee against a yfz450 with a full exhaust, we were neck and neck.. but that's also because out of the whole I had more balls. I know which wheeler "SHOULD" be faster, but it all depends on the operator too. The guy I raced does XC racing, some playing around on tracks, but just about every time we raced on pavement I could get him buy about 1 length through 1st gear. DON'T let off the gas!! Ever.. lol clutch fast, and keep it pinned. If you can grab the whole shot, you're probably not slow enough to make the difference, at least I wasn't. is your banshee completely stock without exhaust? PIPE IT!! Get some vforce3 reeds, find the sponsor on the site called "Herr Jugs Racing" Give kevin a call and tell him you want a port job, if you're really feeling like u wanna break the bank, then get a 4 mill. It'll run you about 1350 bucks for the 4 mill kit with a chariot head. Grab the 4 mil, get a port job, reeds, and exhaust and you're going to be running somewhere in the 70-80 (depends on pipes, carbs, etc) horsepower range.. A yfz450 is running about 42-45?. Do the math... lol spend 1400 bucks and run "almost" twice the horse the yfz is putting out. Another trick you can do that might help you out, is grab the smallest set of tires you can, and race til you hit top end. It's not cheating if you win right?

BigRed350x Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 I would give kevin at Herr Jugs Racing a call. He can hook you up with a port job and all the bolt-on mods you'd need to take care of the LTR. Porting is going to be your biggest bang for the buck, but you need all the bolt-ons to compliment it. Cool head, adjustable timing plate, pipes, carbs, reeds, billet basket.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
06specialedition Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 Porting and you'll be set. But before you even spend $$$ on porting you need all your supporting bolt ons first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtydownunder Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 you dont even need to be ported to beat a ltr, i was beating them non ported with just bolt ons. one 450 kept racing me in the dunes, he had paddles and i didnt, i still beat him. he had pipe and cherry bomb and that too. 2nd gear launches, catchya !

Overboost Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 this is an easy question, borrow a friends YFZ and hand him his ass, that way you can save the money on the banshee shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
