erbilabuc Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 ive heard this word thrown around for months now about how dirtbikes dont have them. Well what the hell is it and what does it look like on a Banshee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolRaptor2001 Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 Counterbalancer is something (not sure what lol) that the crank turns and it is suppose to minimize vibration. Especialy on a 2 stroke. The banshee dosent need one because it has 2 cylinders so the opposite cylinder acts as a balancer. Dirtbikes dont need them because of the 2 large front forks and rear shock they have. I guess it soaks up any vibration that is there. Something to do with bikes only having 2 contact points with the ground while a quad has 4. I dont know so ill let someone smart reply now....
