Cant wait for more pics!

The problem ( as i understand it )is even though they are tubeless rims, they turned out to be porous, because of the low profit margin, Yamaha just installed tubes (instead of going to different rims late in developement) I have no tubes in mine, and the front loses about 10 psi/week, the rear roug...

while, i am not into karts, the more places that use a banshee/rz motor the better.
Just think how little would be available for the the rz if the banshee was never produced!
I hope this takes off!!

yes, there seems to be different opinions on the rz/rd swap. I contacted Scott Clough regarding this (he was supposed to have researched this) but he said while it is supposedly true, he has never done it. But, then my crank turned out to be serviceable, so end of my quest. All the parts are availba...
