dajogejr Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 Great time guys...sorry we couldn't wait up for you banshdog. 40MPH winds and 40 deg. temps didn't make for much fun. Guys showed up at our hotel last night, 6 banshees in tow on a car hauler. By the time we pulled in the parking lot, I went over to talk with them and say hi...and two already went to the hospital for nosing over a dune cliff drop off. The dunes really can change overnight....hope those guys are ok!! I would've been the next one carted out...lol. Gonna post a few pics up in the images section!!

dajogejr Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 I had a great time riding with you guys, I had the black and red banshee. It was great meeting rod and everybody out there and hopefully I'll see you all next year :beer: Dave and Rodney, had a great time meeting and hanging out with both of you....! That little bike you got there is a runner for sure, Dave. I'm sure it'll be something simple you get figured out quick! By the way...just so you know, Bob & R&B racing's handle on this board is machwon, in case you need anything. I posted up a few pics in the media forum. I'm hoping Bob will post some up, or email them to me... I only took pics with my camera Thursday, from the parking lot. Nothing special. I hope Bob has a few mins to cut up and move some video too!! http://www.bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=68671 Rod...I didn't talk to them too long. They seemed like the guys would be ok. With all that cold and wind, I packed up and got in the truck. Real nice guys, too. Couple runners, I'm sure... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davem06 Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 It was an awesome time, although today it was very cold and the dunes weren't very good to ride on. I am taking apart my banshee this week to see, im also painting those pipes and changing the look a little bit. I think Im going to that timing advance and lighten the flywheel like you said to do dave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rriggs Posted October 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 hey davem....glad to see you and your dad made it back home alright...im pretty sure it was the stator in your bike that came loose cousing that noise..unbolt your nerfs, take off the shifter, then you can access the cover and take that off too...if you dont feel comfortable doing that, i would definatly take it back to the guy you had work on it...he had to have all that stuff off of there when he put new crank seals in it, and more than likely didnt lock tite the bolts and they came loose...shouldnt be anything major...had a blast riding with and meeting everyone!! looking forward to next year... Dave, do you know if mellissa got any good pics with her camera? have to check a few of them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dajogejr Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 Your bike had no problems taking it to poor Bob 2 outta 3 times...lol. Those guys are still up there...so, I'm hoping they get up some pics tomorrow or Monday sometime. We left the room at about 10AM, came and saw Dave and Dad, he and I went for a quick lap while Bob sat at camp, I almost ate it a few times, ...and we packed up and left. They followed us almost to Lansing on our tail...no traffic other than a little ice/snow by Brighton area.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dajogejr Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Did you guys get Brent's bike to run right? Was it the Stator?? Sorry...J... I took one lap in that wind and temp, and it was a no-brainer to head on home..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badassbanshee479 Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 it ran alittle better but not the way it usally does! he is gonna get a new cdi box and a new wireing harness. his is just all cut up and taped from a previse owner. I dont blame ya on headin home man. I drove the truck around all day with the heated seats on. jr wheelied the play bike over backwards and bent the j arm so that was done, steves bike had the screw holding the carb to the intake back off so it was running like crap. so we called it and early day and decided to drink.

dajogejr Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 WOW...I'll say, rough day. I have a used CDI off my 96 I can ship you to try, if you don't have any laying around. It's kinda cracked...but, should test out fine. You'll have to splice wires... Or...just get a Dyna and be done with it...lol. Yeah, we got home around 3ish or 4. Hit some nasty sleet/snow round your house....slowed us down for a few miles. Other than that, smooth sailing!! Spent today just recovering....gonna start tearing it down next weekend!!!

banshdog Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 Great time guys...sorry we couldn't wait up for you banshdog. 40MPH winds and 40 deg. temps didn't make for much fun. No worries, did most of our riding on Monday. Was out there for about 5 hours. It got a lil windy later on but overall the dunes were smoothing themselves out. Good times, cant wait till next year.
