CadillacBanshee Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 Port it, burn the reed spacers, and extend the swingarm and you'll be ready for the 9's or maybe even 10's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know where he is coming from, but you can make good power on a stock motor, a lot more with porting granted, but still decent. I run 9 paddle haulers on my bike, stock port, and very similar mods, with a few additions. With the 13 tooth you give yourself a good advantage. With a 14 tooth it is a bit much, and you'll find yourself bogging. You'll do a lot with gear selection and body position. Do it, and when you port it you'll still be on.

Wallrat Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 I'd stick with the 8's. Banshee's seem to like the added wheel spin of 8 paddle haulers until you start modifying the bore and stroke. Almost all ported shee's will still be faster on 8's.

Gargamel Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 i agree with wallrat, the shee and all 2 strokes are engineered to have wheel spin. To much grip and not enough motor will wear things out. They run better with some spin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
