Bancheez Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 First, I have been ice and mx racing 3 wheelers for the last 3 years. Started out riding a modded 250 Tri-Z on the ice, then built my 310 mx bike for the jumps, and now we have built Trish....my stock bore, F.A.S.T. ported, 4mil, banshee powered 3 wheeler!! We built this bike originally for the drags, just because I had the parts laying around. After some seat time, I soon found it to be the BEST handling 3 wheeler I've ever ridden, and BY FAR the fastest thing on the track! I have done everything but mx with this bike so far, and it has won all but 1 race that I have entered with it (finished 7th at Pine Lake....the FIRST time I ever raced it...out of 20 guys). Won best bike build, and the open class drags at TrikeFest 2012. Even Won the first Ice race I entered with it, out on lake sacandaga, against a $20000 TPC with a pro aboard. Anyway, Here are some pics of her on clay, and a few set-up for trails (what a blast in the woods!!). Let me know what you guys think. I have fabbed a jig to build these frames in, and currently have 5 more in the works.... IF anyone out there wants one of these bad boys! enjoy the trike porn! Wifes 250Z, My 250Z, My 310 MX bike, Trish, first appearance. Some good practice laps runnin with Jackie Meadows. Final round of TF12 Open class drags.

Bancheez Posted May 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 On your pipe, why did you go back to twin silencers? Well, My banshee HAD FMF Gnarly pipes, and these shorty silencers on it. When I talked with Rich at DynoPort, we decided to do a 2into1 system, since SURELY a twin piped 4mil was unnecessary in a trike chassis! BUT, I wanted people to KNOW it was a banshee when I rode by, hence the decision to still run the dual shorties, with a Y-pipe. It has a very unique sound, not like that of any other Banshee I've ever heard! Now, that 2into1 is a 1-off pipe, that Rich had no interest in building again! (he lost his ass on this pipe! He quoted me a price, then it took them 3 days to build it...lol) So, now that I have the kinks out of the new frames, I am hauling my new Trish frame to DynoPort, and he is going to design, and jig, dual pipes for these trikes....so that as I build more of these things, people won't have to find someone to build a $1500 custom exhaust for it. We are going to swap out the 2into1 system for his duals, and change from 30mm carbs to 35mm carbs...can you say 90 horse Trike!! lol. Thanx for all the compliments guys, I poured my blood sweat and tears into this project, and I can't wait for more people to experience one of these! SHEAR AWSOMENESS! THANX.

Bancheez Posted May 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Can those trikes compete with the 4 wheelers? YES THEY CAN!! AND, in a lot of instances, we are faster than the pro-am quads (on the flat tracks). Last season, in my 3rd outting with this bike, we raced a tri-oval in redbank Pa, LL Raceway. Before the races, they let me and 1 other trike guy, go out with the open quads...a 500 zilla, and a SWEET Banshee. When they let us loose, I think everyone in the place about shit when I paced the 2 open class quads for 5 laps on a Banshee 3 wheeler...and really givin em a run for their money too! At Sacandaga lake, we (Myself and Eric Dubb) ran faster lap times than the fastest pro-am 250 quad. A trike with a good rider, will corner faster than any quad. The corners is where I make the time up on the quads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
