I am so close to buying this kit for my banshee, just not sure if I want to spend the 2K. Has anyone had any experience with this kit, rode it or seen it in action? I know the kit has to haul. Just want some input befor I spend that much $$.

I've got it ALL on mine, and then some. I LOVE it and think it's money well spent. Let me tell you, it will turn your Banshee into a real @ss kicker. Just tell Lenny Duncan I want a discount on my next order for recommending you, if you end up buying! (I've spent a gazillion dollars with them.)

I've got a bolt-on kit from Duncan on my 'Zilla. I am impressed with their knowledge and ability but their customer relations suck ***. I'm getting my cylinder ported in a couple weeks but it won't be by them! I don't care how good they are, if they are going to "disrespect", my money and I will go elsewhere.
As a side note, Duncan Racing has had their web site "Under Construction" for who-knows how long.
I'd be a little leary of sending my motor to a performance shop that is either so lazy or so computer ignorant (or both) that they don't have a simple web page up yet. It's the middle of 2001 for Christ's sake. Even the rodents in my attic have managed to get "on-line".

Thats pritty funny.
Who were you talking to at duncan that gave you such a hard time. I spoke with the owner Loren Duncan, he seemed nice and answered all my questions.

Their web page isn't all the way complete, I think thats why it takes you to the construction page. If you put index.html after the address it will take you to their web page.

scottd:
Did you get your cylinder ported for mid-range or Top-end. I'm going to go with the mid-range porting and pipes for MX and hill climbing. I want the motor to ripp on the bottom end, I dont really need all the top, but it would still be nice. How much bottom and top end did you gain from the kit?

Did they give you an estimate of H.P ? and are you going to have to run race gas(what compression) ? How are you having it ported (MX, DRAG) ?
