THE ULTIMATE DUNNING BANSHEE

[FireHead]

If you are in the dunes, suspension is your friend. Get some suspension first and foremost, then build your engine up. With a nice suspension you can do a lot more with less power.

 

that should kill your budget quite nicely.

Nah, you just need a bigger budget, then you won't have any trouble. :biggrin:

side-cut your gears in the transmission

 

 

Hey bigred, can you elaborate on how this is done? what is being cut. I have heard this mentioned before, but haven't gotten any specifics. Pics would be great if anybody has any. thanks

I would go with a simple clean up port job, nothing radical there. 2 to 1 intake with a PWK 35. K&N filter pod. 13 and 41 sprockets. Stock arms all around with any good aftermarket shocks on the front. Stock shock on the rear. FMF pipes. Noss cool head with 19cc domes and a good aftermarket radiator but keep your stock impeller. The aftermarkets move water too fast.

As for lighting I use the stock stator and the stock light housing, as both are really well made, but use hight intensity blue bulbs. Good lighting for you, and not too hard on your riding partners.

This combo will not win all of the drag races you get into, but it will win a lot of them. It will give you really good torque in the bottom of the trails and the stock corners on the suspension will allow the bike to rotate quickly in the tight corners. The motor will make more than enough power to climb any hills you want to. The single carb will make tuning simpler when the weather changes on you. Good cooling and minimum mods will product a bike that will give you a lot of fun without a lot of headaches.

Lastly I would run Sand Star or Skate II rears and Dune Tracker fronts. Good forward bite, not the best but the bike will still turn really well. Oh, nerf bars of your choice are a must if you spend much time on the sand.

My bike set up like this makes just over 60 horse on the dyno and hauls my 250 pound a** up and down every hill and trail I point it at.

I would build an aggressive dune ported 4 or 7mil with ported cases.

 

if your dune porting the cylinders... wat do u mean by ported cases??

Port matching the transfer area on the upper case to the lower transfers on the cylinders and cutting the base gaskets to match, its only worth a few ponies...but, all the way throught the power band.

Bigred was talking about cuting every other sprag out of the transmission gears so the gear dogs can engage easier. Makes shifting faster and easier.

I forgot all about this thread. After i didn't get an answer to my question back then, i started searching some old threads and found out about the back cutting of every other dog. I decided against it and figured if i was going to do any tranny mods, i would just go all the way to a duneable override.
