TWILES Posted August 8, 2006 Report Posted August 8, 2006 I had a stock motor(.020 with Wiesco pistons), Toomey T-5's, Toomey 2 into 1 air filter, and the DynoPort jet kit and needles and had plenty of power to clear any jump. My problem was keeping a clutch. You have to keep 2 fingers on the clutch even with a ported ( and everything else) motor. I thought I had to have a hopped up motor when I started. After 3 people( one old racer and 2 engine builders) told me to leave it stock and learn to ride it I did that and I was a believer. Good pipes, open airbox or not one like mine was, and good jetting are plenty. Your looking at around 60 HP with just that. It just takes time to learn a Banshee period and even more time to learn to MX one if its in exelent shape. Quote

I agree with that dosent need 80hp a good set of pipes and I like the single carb setup and put money on good suspension. Quote

TWILES Posted August 10, 2006 Report Posted August 10, 2006 I would love to have had a LoneStar or Laeger framed Banshee. The fastest Banshee's I have ever seen to this day were Doug Eichner and Keith Marks at Lorretta Lynns in 1997 in Open Pro-Am. They were both on Pro-Trax Banshee's and went twice as fast then as the baddest 450's go now. I trashed my frame and started to part out the bike to build a LoneStar Outlaw Banshee like your's but I just sold enough to put it back with the stock frame. I had a guy build a set of a-arms for me and it handled good enough to run with the 250R's and 450 aftermarket bikes. Quote
TWILES Posted August 12, 2006 Report Posted August 12, 2006 If I could find an old Laeger Banshee with the T-Pin and CR500 rear link setup I would buy it. the Lonestar is great and I love it but I would love to have the T-pin front end. The way that Lonestar designed their front upper a-arms, I cannot adapt the T-pin to it. Oh well such is life, What I have is a far cry better than a stock framed banshee. The a-arms you have should be 250R a-arms. You should be able to bolt a 250R ProTrax front-end right onto the frame you have. They told me that it used " HONDA " suspension front and back when I was looking at them. Ask around. That should work. Quote
