My Banshee desert racer
Posted: Sun Jun 17, 2018 3:21 pm
This is my Banshee, I've posted it here before, but thought I'd post some more info n updates, I have tough budget constraints, so I just can't throw $ at things, I research, read and take my time and go with from what I feel will work.
1.) Custom Cro Mo stock length swingarm with Xtreme.
2.) Baja designs, twin La Paz 7" LED light carrier.
3.)Ricky Stator Floating ground conversion with high output stator.
4.) Honda hub conversion for proper wheel offset, bike turns instantly with stability.
5.) Run flat tires.
6.) IMS Baja 6 gallon fuel tank.
7.) Custom valved Ohlins rear shock.
8.) Lonestar racing Desert/MX extended A-arms w upgraded ball joints.
9.) Lonestar Anti fatuige, handlebar mount.
10.) FMF Flying Machine Factory (Fatties).
11.) YZF450 front adj shocks.
Well, since my crank decided to commit suicide in a spectacular fashion...lol
I've just given the go ahead to have a shop build me a motor, It's a potent 4mm stroker based on this Dyno chart.
Take a look at the numbers...(Astounding) tourqe#s to say the least. This engine is going to be a test bed for my RZ build, I'll build myself. A guarantee from the builder of my motor being within the magic # of 5-7 on h.p. and tq of the Dyno numbers has sold me. It's a hardcore Trail/MX ported engine..he said his spec motor will give me (obviously) more mid range than I could ever possibly need...This bike is gonna bolt out of corners so hard it's going to be insane.
It's A 4mm stroker, max bore, based build on ported stock cylinders!, (saves me ) $1700.00 vs another CPI motor. Custom head and dome specs, PWK 33mm Airstikers, 2-1 intake. My bike will differ from his spec in the fact that I'm using 33mm instead of 35mm, and Im going to use a set of Shearer's extreamly regarded in frames (pictured below.
and will test my existing FMF fatties 1st to see what kind of numbers I own, If we're not satisfied, we're switching to the 35s and the Dyno motors SLP spec exhuasts. SLP claims a 10 h.p. boost in Mid range..if that proves correct , its irrefutable, and then on My RZ I'll have BT build me a set as close as he can get (due to RZ limitations)..and be done! 45-50 lbs of Tq and +70-80 h.p. will be essentially the ultimate punch you in the face stock cyl RZ performance engine, especially for how and when I ride her. If this motor out performs the Chettah stock stroke 400cc motor of the other Banshee thats my target, I'll be a happy camper. As that motor delivers 68 h.p. and 44 lbs tq.
I'll know buy the 3rd- 4th week of July. Wish me luck , Hope I don't get ....HuRt
