outkaste Posted December 22, 2003 Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 Hi all, I'm looking for advice on making my Banshee a torque monster. We do a lot of trail/woods riding and would benefit from more torque. Already sent my heads out to have a stage II port job for low end and mid only. Seriously considering the CVII system. Anything else yall would care to voice? THanks in advance. OutKaste Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignasty1 Posted December 22, 2003 Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 if you mean cylinders then you are on a good start next find a cool head like the bad ass one i got from nossmachince.com and bump your compression and then mayby look into a 4 mill stroker and a set of pt mid pipes and then you should probly check into gearing it plays a huge part in what your power feels like since it is partially what gets it to the ground and a decent set of tires to get the shit to the ground ohh and bump your timing up to like +4. can think of to much more ohh and fro traction get your swing arm shorted or buy a minus swing arm with a round house carrier. and you should a decent trail warrior.

frocashmoney24 Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 everything what bigdynasty said , but if you want real torque get a 2-1 pipe, and a 2-1 carb setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banchetta Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Agree w/ both....Get the 2 into 1 for the absolute most torque and low end power...If you want a set of twin pipes w/ the most torque, then get the Pt's....Head mods are a great mod....Shortened swingarm is a must and strongely suggest it....Gear it up, +4 timing, boysen petals, cut the end of the air box lid (about 1.5" off the end so you still have all 4 clips) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twins in 2003 Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Don't pass up Gnarly pipes, they have very nice low end torqe, one of my shee's is set up for low end and works in the tight woods. I am never afraid to use the cluch though, i mean thats what it's there for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
03limitededition Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 I have the gnarly pipes, I like them alot. I had the motofast years ago, so from memory, I think the motofast was a smoother and a more linear powerband, but the gnarly pipes definetly have more mid/top than the motofast with good bottom end. I remember the motofast being very good in the tight woods, but when I hit the open areas I was a little disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4strokesblow Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Dont forget the flywheel weights. Stealthy offroad makes a decent set. They will make the power broader and keep help prevent stall outs. It will also make the power more tractable. My tecate seemed to have a fairly heavy flywheel compared to me shee and i liked in teh woods a lot more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twins in 2003 Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 I must look into this flywheel weight set, but up here in the far north so folks may not understand this language you speek. GO GNARLY'S GO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

outkaste Posted December 24, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 Hey, No riding out of Pa. yet. Just got this thing at the end of summer. Rode it a few weekends and started rippin & tearin. It's gettin a ground up fixin. Some moron worked on it before I got it and really did some stupid things. I wouldn't let the guy work on a bicycle! There used to be a good poker run down until 2 yrs ago, I think. It was one of the largest in the country. Cochranton Pa. Unfortunately, it was shut down do to too many inconsiderate riders and a bunch of tree huggers. We have a few places around here to ride and always on the lookout for more. There are some places in the Allegheny National Forest, Mid Pa., that we will be going to this summer and I guess these are some prime riding areas. Some of the trails are kept well 'groomed'.

2004LEBanshee Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 Outkast I am from Ohio but often me and my friends go to Marianville ATV trail is that near you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4strokesblow Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 Hey Twins. wher esi this Candian sand you speak of? have you done any riding in Calgary or Drumheller in the badlands and shit? I dont know of anywhere to go riding. not even around here. later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twins in 2003 Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 Yes Calgary, drumheller, Wypress all that and much more. Everheard of the great sand hills, or the Athabaska sand dunes. 200,000 sq miles of sand and only a handfull of people know that it exists, or how to get there, thats the hard part. Brulie sand dunes are fun and easy to get to. They are in west Alberta next to a town called Hinton look it up. Great sand hills are protected land in Saskatchewan but i got to no a few farmers in the area that let us ride there a couple times a year.

outkaste Posted December 26, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 2004LEBanshee, That's about 1.5-2 hrs away. That is one of the places mentioned earlier in Allegheny National Forest. Soon as the weather breaks, we'll be on our way. Would you be interested in meeting there or maybe stoppin in on your way through? If so, we'll have to keep in touch. What part of Ohio? We usually travel up to my aunts house in Port Clinton to do walleye fishing off her charter boat and jump on over to Cedar Point.
