ElDiablo52 Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 Can I have a trail worthy banshee thats capable of 90+ mph? ok so lets be logical here, so I have a stock for stock motor with a uni filter and t-5s, so my bike is quick but still tops out around the 70, so can I mod my bike to be able to gear it for 90+ top speeds but still have the grunt for trails. The way I see it, its all about gearing and mods only get you to your top speed faster so with stock gearing and a ton of mods your still gonna go somewhere near stock top speed, so all In all I am wondering what I can do to my motor and shit to be able to be where I am at now on the trails ( powercurve of stock motor with T-5 pipes) yet be able to do it with a taller gear for more top speed?

rocketboy Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 good porting plenty of other mods and tall gearing will do the job but yo ureally need to ride a she at a true 90+mph before your dead set on it ,it is extremly scary and uncomfortable in a quad frame to go this fast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been as fast as 80mph on a shee, and it was cool for the first few seconds... then i started to think... wtf happens if i eat shit going this fast... not a good feeling... 90mph on a quad is insane unless your doing straightline dragging on a smooth surface.

race-a-holic Posted June 19, 2006 Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 It is possible.Porting will make a huge difference.I'm sick of hearing about banshees that can do over a 100mph.Alot of them can but come on.It takes more than just pipes.Keep in mind too.Even if you can hit 90,who cares if it takes you forever to get there. I had some guys ask me how fast mine should go.I told them around 90-95.They was shocked.They told me about this banshee that could do 112.Maybe he could,but I beat I'd smoke him in the 1/8th no problem.Just my opinion. Get a good port job,good set of pipes(CPI/shearer),larger carbs,different head,and weld up the crank and that banshee will be quite a hand full. My friend Michael has a dune ported(F.A.S.T.).Even with stock carbs,that banshee is extremely strong.I'm impressed. He runs holeshots.Right now his gearing is 13/41.We know he should gear up to either 14/41 or 15/41.With the 13/41,it spins something fierce on asphault with his' holeshots in 1st and 2nd.In 3rd,it will lay down about a 10 ft. black mark.Remember,that's with stock carbs.Jeff is awesome on his' porting.

Rustbag Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 I hate when people ask me "how fast will it go?" like top speed is the most important factor. I mean come one, don't be so one dimensional. Now if they asked how fast is it in the 8th, that might be a different story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonestar Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Especially if it only takes 3 to 4 seconds to hit those speeds it's a RUSH. It does get scarey. Imagine tie-rod let go or spindle snapped or forgot to torque something down at thoes speeds. Youll be like a lawn dart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
