undertow Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Having a good port job done is gonna give you the best bang for the buck. Quote
superdave Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 i bought the sport port templates a few years ago. did my own in a saturday afternoon. still have the templates. really gained top end speed. Quote
WonderBoy Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 (edited) depending on your type of riding.. depends on what mods you want.. lots of topend for pullin up dunes fast.. get some t-5's. dune port. and some bigger carbs and get a coolhead with some 21cc domes and advance ur timing +4 degrees with a advanced timing plate.. also.. do some gearing. instead of running the stock 41 on the rear.. go up one or 2. u'll lose some topspeed but u can pull dunes nice and easy. proud owner of 5 banshees.. mild to wild.

Sandfrk33 Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Reeds and porting fo sho. After the last post about banshees, wonderboy recommended +4 timing so I tried it. Haven't made first trip yet. its supposed to help bottom end. Quote
uscduner Posted January 24, 2009 Author Posted January 24, 2009 i bought the sport port templates a few years ago. did my own in a saturday afternoon. still have the templates. really gained top end speed. where can i get the templets and would i need a special bit Quote
WonderBoy Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 you would need some porting bits.. like rasps. but sometimes smoother.. Quote
WonderBoy Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 and the +4 timing will give you more bottom end. i have a banshee with fmfs.. +4 timing.. stock carbs. milled head.. stock 13 tooth front sprocket. and a 42 tooth rear .. and my bike loves to wheelie. Quote
superdave Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 where can i get the templets and would i need a special bit you can borrow them from me. 506-4152 Quote
otis Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 hey i am new to the atv scen i have a banshee what kind of motor up grade would anyone recomend its has t5's ,cool head ,k&n what bang for the buck. THANKS If I were starting all over, i'd dial in the suspension before i did any motor mods.... A good set of A-Arms, shocks, and axle.... Can't go fast if you cant control the bike.... just my 2 cents... Quote
xXQuickSandXx Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 I agree on suspension mods & Banshees are in desperate need of upgrades in that area. A piped Banshee on stock carbs & a few boltons can take you a long way! I'd open up the airbox or remove it, go with some Uni foam or K&N filter/filters. Shaved flywheel, shaved shift star, VF3 setup. all these things put together will make those T5's respond pretty good. What compression and domes are you running? Might be able to lower those domes for more compression. Quote

Can't go fast if you cant control the bike.... just my 2 cents... Seriously. This is probably the most overlooked thing ever. Quote

THANKS go to bansheehq.com/forums ... sign up and ask the pros.. these guys are cool as hell and know everything about banshees and i am also a member there as for the question when i droped down a tooth on the front sproket it did wonders in the dunes and i have about the same mods as you not to mention its a really cheap fix so next i recomend that then some vforce reeds... hope this helped Quote
