AirForceRulz Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 My banshee is an 05 w LRD pipes and k&N filter. I went to a local shop here and i asked the guy for a littl;e more low end power. This is what he said he can do for around 650 bucks. I take my bike in he tears it down and does: Trued and welded crank,lightned flywheel, +4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

race-a-holic Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 I don't think I'd worry about the flywheel.Getting the crank welded is a good idea.Banshee is right,you can get a cheaper port job.Don't let them talk you into a drag porting,if that's not what you plan on doing with it.Just a good port job will do wonders.20 cc domes would do just fine.Who ever you buy the head from,ask what they would suggest.Make up your mind what exactly you want to do with the bike(trails,drags,all around bike).Don't let them talk you into something you don't want.

You cant go wrong with the nossmachine head. Nossmachine and prodesign cool about the same, but noss is a bansheehq sponser. Getting the crank welded will hold it together with higher compression.

Shee-Male Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 you can have your stock head machined up to .030 I went .025 on mine with a modified factory stator plate for +4 timing, lightned my flywheel,ported my reed cages, bored my stock carbs to 27.5, changed my plug wires and added a 1/2" reed spacer. let me tell ya with a set of fmf's it damb near rips my arms off! If your sum what mechanicly inclined you can do this stuff otherwise any local machine shop wouldn't charge much to help you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 650 is a good deal for that work. Lightened flywheel is 60ish. Head is about 240 from NOSS, and I'd get his...he sponsors HQ. If not...milled is around 40. Don't go 18cc domes unless you want to run race gas. Trued and welded crank is around 50. I think boring the stock carbs is around 80...not sure. A timing plate is 35 DON'T let him put a degree key in. Why take the chance of sheering a key...when the plate is dirt cheap. So...after all that...only a couple bills for labor is pretty good. Shops charge from 60 upwards to 100 per hour for labor. But...I strongly agree....that's too much for porting. Jeff @ FAST Racing, Eric Gorr and Jim @ Passion Racing are good ones, to name a few. That said, they're not going to take the motor, etc., out of your banshee....you're on your own for that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
