i have a 97 banshee, i love to "walk" it a long distance, prolly walk it for a min. or 2, it stutters and loses throttle responce quickly, but i figured it was the gas in the tank or something to do with the position of the carbs when i do a wheelie. it has stock carbs,filter, and i was wanting to know if it was bad for a banshee to be ridden so slow in a wheelie(a slow walker could outrun me when i do these wheelies) for so long. thanks

 

Its not hard on it but you are kinda flooding the engine out, thats why it stalls. Them 2-smokes aint ment to be lugged "walking" wheelies, thats 4 stroke territory. I like to pin it in 2nd and ride it out through 5 w/ the front wheels about 75% in the air.... thats fun!!

my freind has a 99 banshee w/ a 560 kit on it, and he has so much trouble wheeling it dont ask me why, i think he is just too nervouse but still i think i would be scared to wheely something that fast too.

 

i can walk my 300ex easily but the d@m thing leaks gas out the carb, and the oil in the engine goes to the back so it eats away at the piston [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img] . I can ride them sittin down from 2nd to 3rd gear but thats about it, my friend(sheerider17) can ride them from 2nd to 6th! going about 60 mph sitting down!

 

k first a 300 ex whelling like that mn you must be good a 400ex just pulls that off. and oil eating away at a piston haha.

 

dont be an *** about it, i can ride wheelies as long as i want on my banshee and 300ex, dont tell me i cant when i have lots of people down here that saw me, and CVBOYZ.com shows like 2 or 3 people that can ride wheelies on a 400exs,warriors, etc, etc,etc, while doing tricks on it! also, a 300ex is a WAY different machine than a 400ex, but if you know how to do a wheelie, and i can tell you dont, then it is not hard at all. and our local mechanic that used to own a Yamaha dealership says that a 4stroke that does a wheelie over 11 seconds, then the piston will start getting eaten away due to the motor oil going to the back of the engine, you do know what motor oil is dont you. so quit saying this bullsh!t that you dont even know about, and dont even begin to argue with a mechanics word, because you have no idea what you are talking about. And if you think that a 300ex cant wheelie, your an idiot.

 

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo DISSSSSSSSSS GOOD ONE MAN I GIVE U PROPES FOR THAT DAWM

 

HEY ONCE U GOTO CVBOYZ.COM HOW COME I CANT GET BACK AND CE THE WEB SITE AGAIN
