LOL, no hard feelings at all Ron.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I just hope you are some kid trolling for attention. Otherwise I might think you are some type of Adult Sociopath trying to break out of his shell, and I'm the one driving you back in..... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

 

LOL, no try reading it again! I have made no claim as to the content of my post in this thread.
I have just stated the obvious. That is you have failed to post anything WORTHY of an intelligent response. That is not to say you haven't received an intelligent response.

You will have to go with your instincts on that. Say what you like about me but I have already had a positive impact on you because your posts are getting more mature, clever and sophisticated by the minute. Keep moving in this direction in every facet of life and everything will get easier and work better.

It's never to late.

Do you really have a Cheetah Banshee? How's it run? Any 300' times?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I will accept that only because your last two posts have shown that there is intelligent life sitting behind your keyboard. Up to that point whenever I envisioned you, all I saw was a potted plant sitting at a computer.

Now I realize I was mistaken.

Keep up the good work! It is paying off!

Oh it runs good....Well you hang in the bombardier forum right???
I know THEBOM, Jeff Ross.... A very nice and VERY knowledgeble guy.
He's seen my Banshee a few times..... He can back me up...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

He doesn't have to. I believe you. That thing must really scream! How much stroke and bore are added to reach 558?

 

The engine is a 74.5mm bore x 64mm stroke. With power valve block off's.Its a 10 mill stroker.
I run a PVL ignition (no flywheel) 7 degree advance.
41mm mikuni flat slide alky carbs with power jets/ with fuel pump.
2-5 over ride transmission.
CR250 reed cages and reeds.
CPI big bore drag pipes.
Marvin shaw shocks front and back.
+12 round house, no link rear swing arm/with wheelie bar
Aluminum drag axle and hubs.
16-40 gearing.....
The top end was drag ported by Lynn Chauvie from L.C. performance.
And my Banshee weighs under 320lbs....

 

A few things I forgot...
I run stright cut gears and a lock out clutch...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

I haven't put this engine on a dyno yet.... But it should put out at least 130hp.
Maybe this spring I can get a hold of Jeff and put it on his dyno.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

" Oh yeah, dirt wheels dyno'd the yfz and it had a peak hp of 33.03 to the rear wheels not 38hp like a stock shee. And before someone says they didn't use small dyno tires {to artifically inflate the hp #}


You are flat wrong my friend. And people accuse me of reading to much. A stock yfz450 is making 39 rear wheel horse power. There is NO getting around it. The reason the dirtwheels shootout said that, is because they are running knobbies. To get TRUE accurate dyno's you have to run slicks, just like they happen to do a year ago with there pipe shootout for the yfz. They even said 39 rear wheel horse on a stock yfz. Thats using slicks though. The other problems that may or may not hve made that dyno look bad is the way they strapped the yfz down. There is almost NO verticle restraint on the yfz, as they tied it down at the swingarm. It mostly only has horizontal restraint, giving into wheel spin, which I am almost positive it was. If you notice the TRX, it was strapped down at the rad grab bar giving the proper verticle restraint, as to not give into wheel spin.
A banshee makes 34-36 rear wheel horse power stock.
