I'm thinking on putting a kx500 engine on a banshee I can get the frame and the engine, I have heard about cr500's engines on a banshee but not a kx500, have somebody done this??what do you think??I would have to cut same parts of the frame or it can fits on it with out cutting???

 

May not have to cut the frame but may have to make some mount's,why not a tacate frame??or a Blaster frame?

 

I already have the banshee frame, and I can't get tecate or a blaster frame, here are not a lot of quads, was difficult to get the banshee, now I'm between the kx engine and a cr500 engine but its more posible that I buy the cr, I thik it would be the same that the kx, or not??,
if you can give me some advices I would be very gratefull, I really want to build this quad.

 

I have to make mention that Viiiiiibbbbbbbbbrrrrrrrraaaaaaaattttiiiioooooonnnn nnnn will be a problem!

That's a non-counterbalanced motor placed in a location that will transmit vibrations throughout the chassis.
It'll run hard, but your hands will be numb, and you'll spend alot of time tightening loose bolts, and replacing the lost ones...

Not a worthy transplant candidate IMHO.

My $.02

 

I have a cr500 in my lt250 frame. They make awesome power. Lots of torque as well as being fast. I can do riding like the four strokes or race with the modified banshees. Yes they do vibrate. I just rode mine a few minutes ago and the vibration does not bother me at all. Yes you will notice. YOu will have to tighten bolts. Use locktite and not as often. But I love the power and the vibration issues with mine isnt stopping me from enjoying my quad

 

DDDDUUUUUNNNNNEEEEE YYYYOOUUUUU CCCCRRAAAACCKKKKKK MMMEE UUPPPPPPPP!

 

LoL!

I surprise myself sometimes Zuk!


I had a TRX500R (CR500 motor) that I attempted to rubber mount, solid mount, neoprene mount the motor, antivibe stem/bars, etc., etc., etc...
Yes, the power was great!, Yes it was great fun to ride!, but I got tired of replacing/tightening every bolt in the thing everytime I rode it... The frame was cracked/welded so many times.... just a horrible transplant for me.
Sure glad I found some poor dude to buy it!

IF I had it to do all over again, I'd find one of those TRX510 kits for the 250R bottom end, and build it that way.... I ruined a great chassis with the hybrid.

But Good luck to ya anyhow... It'll be a learning experience for sure..
