Can get out of hand in a hurry. I would start there then check out site sponsors. There are many options. What set up for carbs and exhaust are you running now.

Newtoit Posted June 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Stock carbs stock head but has light portjob and pro circuit pipes budged would be 3k give or take Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 i would say a stock cylinder 4 mil stroker is what i would build. similar to what i have, the 4 mil will give you more power everywhere. get a MX port, as it will let you keep the bottom end for the trails, and still bring the top end power. should be able to do that for under 3k. only thing i dont know about is the trans, but thats because override i dont think is suggest for trails if i remember correctly.

Newtoit Posted June 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 I'm in az most my trails are wide open for the most partSent from my LGLS775 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 mine are pretty open on my farm. i love the feel of a bike with a lot of bottom and mid range, that instant power. That's why i built mine the way i did. Figure worst case if i can top it out too fast, i can always change gearing. I also never go to the dunes, as there isn't any around here.

Schweet97Z Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 4 mil with whatever port you desire. Carbs and pods. A good set of pipes and a pro mod trans. Pro circuits will keep your power down and bring it in low. They aren't a bad pipe just not sure if that's what your looking for? Everyone rides trails different and different power bands are desiredSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadianshee Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 I have yet to fire mine up from frame up rebuild. There are no performance shop around me up here so all of my part I bought through site sponsors. I went for reliability over crazy performance as I ride a lone most time out in the sticks. Take a look at my rebuild thread for parts and upgrades. I'm close to 5k with the build buts that's Canadian, so pretty sure you can do a lot with 3k USD Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newtoit Posted June 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 I'll check it out like I said its my first build so I'm really trying to take this all in and I'm learning all I can so I can better figure out my build.Sent from my LGLS775 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newtoit Posted June 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Wouldn't mind 90hp on race gas at all would pipes and carbs would be best for a build like thatSent from my LGLS775 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newtoit Posted June 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 What pipes and carbs sorry my phone auto correct sucksSent from my LGLS775 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandSlingerOR Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Pc s are great pipes. They pull on the top as well. But they still will hinder you a bit in the power. I'd recommend cpi s next, excellent pipe. They pull in the top and still have some low end to play around on. Honestly everything on the banshee that is stock parts is junk. So you may end blowing past your $3k budget replacing everything lol. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 421 from Driveline or a 421 Serval. Have it ported for midrange/dune type riding. It'll have a bit of down low, and still rev pretty nice up top, and beat your typical bolt on machine in a drag race. Call Joe Molinari for a N down pro mod trans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would try to do an inspection of entire motor first before purchasing anything. I wish I had done so. I ended up having to replace clutch which I really didn't think of at the start of the build. But there is tons of info on this forum. This was my first banshee and first rebuild after owning it for a few months. The ppl on here and reading through past post really help along with a Clymers manual. Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
