275 and his bike is hauling ass, something aint right with yours for it to be that slow :P

 

My banshee is stock i'm 275lbs and when I learned how to whip this puppy it hauls enough to scare me, lol. My filter is basically falling apart too haha.. k&ns soon.. anyways. I really don't see the need to upgrade mine after stock either.. lol it hauls fast enough for me now.. never rode a dirtbike before well once when I was 16 and I popped the cluth and it pretty much flipped me LOL. Now I stay on atleast 4 wheels. like woah  :bolt:

Man, you don't even need that much. People over-rate the cost of performance parts for banshees. I always hear about how they cost so much more because you have to buy two of everything...blah, blah, blah. If that's the case, why is a new 4 stroke exhaust the same price as a banshee's exhaust? Piston kits are the same cost for a banshee as they are a yfz450, if not less. Cranks are the same price....

 

You could stroke, port, buy new carbs/filters, reeds, and a new head to bump up the compression for WELL under 3,000 dollars, and have a 90+ HP engine. You must not do the work yourself. You should really do some research before coming on here bad mouthing banshees like you know what you're talking about :shootself:

Intake plate for open airbox, or pods for no airbox - $100

pipes - $500

porting $300

carbs $400

timing plate - $35

shaved head < $100

 

total < $1500 (probably right at $1000 if you search for good deals) and you should easily be over 60 hp. Nearly double a stock banshee.

Good point, But I think it could be done for even less than that!!

You must not of paid attention to them while growing up! If you know so much, why the hell are you asking how to make it faster? Go fuck yourself, asshole :cheers:

Mr    2000SHEESMINE    your an idiot....i have experience on dirtbikes and i bet my old 250 would smoke your butt because i actually knew how to drive a dirtbike....knowing how to drive a dirtbike is just as important as the horse power it makes and obviously the people you raced didnt know how to drive......... AND YES THEY WILL HIT CLOSE TO 100 MPH....

Are you trying to say that I dont know how to ride? Thats what im getting from all your nonsense. I have seen Banshees beat faster bikes than your little 500.

Well Ive seen a guy do 119 at the local drag strip, on his way to a 10 flat quarter mile. He was beating crotch rockets all night long. Only a couple busa's could beat him. Course I bet he's glad there weren't any KX500s there, he might have gotten beat :rotflmao:
