Banshee Roost Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 Hey for 400 dollars is the Vito's 404 big bore sleve kit with 68mm pistons and head/domes a good choice to have ported for my first rebuild... Would send to jim at passion racing for the work/porting. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/YAMAHA-350-BANSHEE-VITOS-VITOS-404-404CC-BIG-BORE-KIT-/230635450423?pt=Motors_ATV_Parts_Accessories&hash=item35b2f1b037 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickedcarbine Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 IMO, there is no way that kit is worth the money. Maybe 8/10 years ago when there was only the LA sleeve mono, T-Rex, etc. But now there are entire cylinder kits that will get you more for the same price as properly setting up sleeves. Hell, $400 for the kit, $200 for top notch precision sleeving, $3/$400 for porting, and that is just the start. It is old technology, and it almost holds your cylinder back on porting. It chokes the transfers when you just stuff the big sleeves in. Of course you could get your transfers welded and opened up before the new sleeves go in, but that is another additional cost. I have that same kit in my bike and I am so sick of the headaches of big bores in stock cylinders. It has taken me alot of time and money to get mine to run like a big bore 80 horse 4 mil should. I will find a link on a lot of set up tips if you are still set on it. But consider this....... a standard dune port on race gas from almost every builder on our site sponsor list will make about 80 horse reliably if you have the right set up. And they will do it for $3/400. Way less then mine cost, way less down time, and way less headache. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lms1977 Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 I'm a machinest and bore cylinders I was going to do a set of big bores it just did not make sence the only thing I liked is you could bore them a few times. the cub or serval is way easier if you want a big bore, or just get your set ported. now 10 years ago that was a hot setup and there are still some that haul ass just seems like a lot of work and problems.
