Frogger Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 It's winter time so that means the bike gets some more goodies. What are your opinions on what should be done next. I was thinking reeds. My current mods are in my sig. :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasBansheeMan Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 REEDS VF2's I like em more than the 3's, 30mm oko carbs from CWP(EBAY) 200 bux, Nice port and pollish, and it will come ALIVE!!!!! depending on the P/P cost is cheap $500 and thats on the high side, Then come A-Arms swinger round style..........after that its a money pit!! welcome to BANSHEE!

wacko2000 Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 I agree with the above, Get yourselve a good port job, v-force reeds and bigger carbs and shee's gonna try and rip your arms off.. I just got my shee ported and its a night and day difference... Welcome to the HQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frogger Posted December 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 Would you do the port before the reeds and carbs or mix up that order? I've heard that the reeds don't increase hours power! Is that true? I feakin love this forum!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theshee Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 reeds dont add a whole lot of power. Gain lots of throttle response with reeds though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking reeds. My current mods are in my sig. :biggrin: If I were to start over again I would go for suspension before tearing in to the engine. A piped Banshee goes pretty good but already but the stock suspension blows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2strokespirit Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 V-force 3 reeds claim 2hp through the entire powerband, I like them because of the throttle response, really works on low end power also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Jackson Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 (edited) one word: s u s p e n s i o n you can only go as fast as your suspension lets you... its great to have hp, but not much sense in having a bunch of hp and a stock suspension, a piped banshee with decent suspension would KILL a 60+Hp stock suspended banshee through any terrain unless it was a paved road..and even then, when a corner comes up, bye bye Edited December 17, 2007 by Michael Jackson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbooker82 Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 On a serious note. I dont know what a stock banshee handles like. Mine came with +2 arms, and works dual rate ressi shocks in the front, and a Round House Swinger, and a revalved rear shock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RagunCajun Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 suspension THEN a port job. period. Dont drag port your bike unless you tried riding a drag shee before. The powerband is shit for playing around. It's all or nothing. Im ported and sure i love the huge power increase but w/o a smooth ride it isnt as enjoyable as it could be. You cant fly over whoops or bumpys stuff if your bike is bouncing all over the place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
