Banshee802 Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 So picked up a new banshee tonight. Have a feeling one of the rods is bent. Not sure if it’s just from looking at it from a bad angle or what. Anyway I can check to see if it’s bent or not??

locogato11283 Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 Why do you think it's bent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banshee802 Posted December 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 Why do you think it's bent?Anytime I look at it straight on, this would be left side sitting on quad, it seems shifted to the right at the top of the rodSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

97Screamer Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 Maybe just the pic but it looks like the crank is separating. Better get out the feeler gauges. I don't know about the rod, you could convince me either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banshee802 Posted December 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 So you guys think the crank should be good? Just need pistons and cylindersSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusto Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 If your working the tolerances run it. if your going to put some big power on it have it welded and bearings inspected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banshee802 Posted December 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 If your working the tolerances run it. if your going to put some big power on it have it welded and bearings inspected This motor would only be seeing stock cylinder, head, T5s, and vforce reeds. Nothing too special. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusto Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 (edited) Run it if everything is in tolerance Edited December 30, 2018 by gusto 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 MFer looks tweaked to the right to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUSTWANNARACE Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 Looks like it may have been hydro locked at some point.. definitely looks bent in the pic.. I check it out a little more before running it..jmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banshee802 Posted December 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 MFer looks tweaked to the right to me. Yeah that’s what I was thinking. Hoping it was my ocd just trying to pick out something wrong haha. Looks like this crank is toastSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
