Banshee Push Rod froze?


Recommended Posts

Well wtf. He wants to fix it. But not the right way. I'll buy it as is.

If that's to low, it needs a trans and the whole motor rebuilt. So what's it really worth?

Let me guess, it ran great before it broke.

yea. it still runs. im against splitting the case because 1.) yes i would like to sell it and dont want to mess anything up worse. 2.) I dont trust myself and would have to order all new gaskets etc(yes i know gaskets are minor but i risk causing more leaks by messing something up.) 3.) because usually the push rod should just slide right out anyway, its just a matter of figuring out how to unstick it. and 4.) because even if I do take top end off, the cases are going to be stuck together by the push rod, which takes me back to square one, where i remove the pushrod the way it is, without the cases split..

 

If I have to, yes i will. but would certainly prefer not to

You're a fucking democrat aren't you? Either fix it right or take your loss and move on. It's obvious you're expecting a hand out here. Fuck off back to broke ass jigaboo land.

im not looking to argue about why i wont give the banshee away, i came here for advice on how to fix it, looks like ill try splitting the cases. ive been offered more than 1200 as it sits, im not gonna come down in price because you have to drive far. but either way, its not for sale. so thats besides the point

 Are you fucking drunk?

So you have no knowledge of these engines. But your going to totally rebuild it and then sell it as a good running bike? Is that about what's going on? And, its also  not for sale.

nobody knows how to get the push rod out? there has to be another way then splitting the cases, either way the rod ones between the cases.

 

Most all know how to do it, and have basically explained how, but you insist there's another way.

Actually there is. If you Google search, it was mentioned in a thread in the last five or so years.

I refuse to go into detail as you have flipflopped about selling just like polititions do on things. And I beleive you intend on selling it after applying a Presidential Solution. The "repair" I refer to was done on a riding trip of considerable distance and was repaired properly later, which I know you have no intention of doing, you Demo.

If you have no faith in your mechanical abilities or how to follow a repair manual, you need another hobby. There is no engine easier than a Banshee to split the cases on.

One hint I will give is clean case mating surface with laquer thinner, spread 3Bond/Yammabond with an acid brush, nice even coat, don't goop it into threaded hoes. (pun intended)
