Jason702v Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 Hey everyone just bought a modded banshee last night. A buddy of mine has a 4 mill I rode a few times and really liked it so I started lookin for one of my own. I picked up this one. It has a 4 mill engine with all the regular upgrades. I have dyno sheets that show 85 hp and 43 ft lbs. my question is the tranny. I was told it has an override 2-4 tranny. I did a little research on them and saw that there were a few different kind. I was told I couldn't downshift, I said "without the clutch" and ne said no not at all it will destroy the tranny. Is that right? The guy I bought it from said he never actually rode it. He got it, upgraded the suspension, now is going through a divorce and now has to sell it. Heck he may even be a member her not sure. Was a good dude, that just seems kinda odd that you couldn't downshift at all while it was moving. But I don't know crap about these maybe that is normal.

SOUTHTHIRTY Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 You can only shift an override with pulling in the clutch .....you must com to a full stop to down shift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason702v Posted October 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 I thought the point was that you didn't have to clutch to upshifting but HAD to to downshift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m671054 Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 Your local? These guys are correct upshift no clutch and on the gas. Down shift with clutch not under a load. You cant coast with this trans. It it meant to be ridden under full load or clutch pulled in for drag racing. If you want to dune get a pro mod. Adrenaline can do the work for you. they probably know what trans it has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave5.0 Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 Is it a straight override or a dunable override? I would think a plain ol override would suck in that bike. The way it's setup I mean. Looks like a dune bike not a straight drag bike. Don't usually put an override in anything but a dedicated drag bike. Just for the the reasons given.

gusto Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 What a nice looking bike and a great price. Congratulations Get rid of the tranny and get something more rideable, it will be worth it in the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troyzstang Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 Pretty sure you could sell or trade for a more user friendly tranny. Very nice bike at a more then fair price. BTW welcome to BansheeHQ. Troy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason702v Posted October 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 Thanks everyone. It is on my mind to get a more user friendly tranny. I have a drag car so part of me wants to put some slicks on it and see what it'll do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
