Colorado Red Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 I know this is BansheeHQ, but I can't seem to find a decent site for Blaster info. I took out my wife's Blaster today and I have to agree with everyone about the stock suspension...its decent at best. She has commented on how smooth my Banshee rides, but I guess I thought she meant the engine. (her's is a 250cc Trinity engine, so its a little jumpy) I've heard that I can use Banshee shocks on the front of the Blaster...any truth to that? Also I've heard I can use a 250R rear shock on the blaster...?? (what year 250r?) How about extended swingarm...does it help the ride? I'd like to know if this is true and if it helps the Blaster's ride. Also if anyone knows of a good Blaster site...let me know. Thanks. -Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sycoracer911 Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 ok man i have blasters and have for a while... i know a good amount about them.... yes banshee front shocks will fit... also 400ex, z400, kfx, and 250r rear shocks do fit.... the 250r shock has to be a 87-89... the 250r shock is longer than the 400ex, z400, and kfx shock so the rear will be lifted quite a bit.... the 400ex, z400,and kfx shock will life the rear end a little bit but it is one of the best mods you can do to a blaster... i have also had a +3 swingarm... and it was nice... but between the shock and the swinger my back end was so jacked up it was tippy...real tippy... i ran the 250r shock an 87 and a +3 swingarm.... also the banshee front shocks will lift the front end a little bit...

sycoracer911 Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Well here is a few pics of my older blaster projects.... anyway its got the front banshee shocks, 250r rear shock and swingerm.... also the pics with the helmet.... that is an xl helmet and the quad was able to roll over it... i loved the shocks... but if your going to do that to it i would recomend getting a +4 banshee axle, and eithe r+3 a arms or +5 5/8 a arms... if you go the +5 5/8's a arm root... i would get yfz shocks for it.... if there is any other info you need feel free to i.m. me at poonerpiesays .... or just shoot me a pm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
