88SMILEY Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Sold my Banshee last year, bought a Harley broke my leg sold the harley, looking to to builild another Banshee. I am starting with nothing but a good set of engine cases. I am starting from the ground up. I want to build a fast reliable trail machine that will beat the 450's. First of all I always had trouble with my old tranny, second of all stroke it or not? I would appreciate any and all input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88SMILEY Posted April 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Also want to know any opinions on aftermarket frames, thinking about sticking with a stock banshee A arm frame with some aftermarket shocks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider11 Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Hell yeah stroke it. I wish some one told me that from day one. And your best bet is to use a stock frame, can find ful rollers for cheap. But if you want to beat a 450 you need a 4 mil and port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
special06shee Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 a good running bolt on banshee that has been turned correctly will usally be enough to take care of most 450s out there as long as rider/weight/traction are somewhat equal!! a ported banshee is just on another lever.. and a ported 4mil done correctly is WOW!!.. i had both and loved each setup.. but when in doubt always go bigger!!lol if you decide to stick with the stock chassis there are tons of frames/rollers that can be picked up cheap! i would definetly upgade the stock shocks and aarms if you decide to go that route!

88SMILEY Posted April 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 I am planning on a set of paul turner mid range, I really liked them on the last one. Can i get a trail machine to maintain running on alcohol otherwise I will probably go with twin 35PWK's like I had on the the last one. I was running 104 KLOTZ in it.

sheerider11 Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Its not worth it to run alcohol in the trails. I ONLY USE NITRO METH IN THE TRAILS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
