01bansheefox Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Building a dune bike but i also wanted to use it for trail riding through the dunes not just drag racing, How does the length affect trail riding? I wanted to put some decent power in this build so I was thinking a +6 or should i do a +4? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayhawkatv Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 I"ve had everything from a +4 to a +10. The 4 was in my opinion the easiest to ride and the one I had the most fun on. I had 72hp on my +4 and it was a blast to ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WINDYCITYJOHN400 Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 X2 I like a +6 for an all round banshee as long as the motor is ported and built. (65hp and higher) +4 if it's just bolt-ons. Works fine for me in the woods at The Badlands as well as on the dunes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01bansheefox Posted December 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 This will be a sand only banshee, the paddles will never come off. I have other banshees for dirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
special06shee Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 I never ran in sand but i had a +4 and currently running a +6. I really didnt notice any bad differences with the added length in the trails! Id say just go with the +6 and youll be good to go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
421alkybanshee Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 if you need a support to hold your banshee in your truck with the tailgate down its toooo long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRed350x Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 +6 is the best IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
