I purchased the 06 special ed. stock it didnt have any bottom end, trying to take off from the parking lot sounded like i was trying to race, now after the mods what a diff, i have botton end and pulls like bell to the top. my mods was barrel head, toomey, and air intake works g series shocks.. main jet 350.its like a diff ride now.p.s. stock it ran hot all the time, with the mods that a has gone away.

 

Wich color did you get? I also put toomey pipes on it and my bottom end is not so good, when i hit the throttle getting out of first gear the bike seems to hesitate and it's not smooth throttle response until i get to 3rd and 4th gears, then it rips smooth through the gears.

 

to get bottom end you need to up the compression and go with vf3reeds, i have mine on order., color is yellow.

 

no on the carbs, unless you are on alki, you can go as large as 320, maybe 350 main jets with the right mods.

 

Thanks for the info bro, yellow is real nice. Mine is black. I will keep you posted on my progress with it and let you know the mods i do on it. Thanks again! JP

 

bansheehq is a forum for banshee riders only. you can get lots of first hand info there.

 

whats up guys? jpstyle your in my same situation check my thread if you havent already under 06banshee upgrades.2strokefumes and driverdoyle put it down with some good info and links. i have the 06special edition banshee and looking into cranking some more power just like you. special edition blk on blk rocks LOL. bottom end does suck though. but after a few mods we should be ok. cpi or toomey t5's humm. cant wait to put the pipes on it,it sounds like a gurl with the stock pipes.

p.s. i thought i was the only one that thought this bike rode hot in temp stock.

 

Ok man thanks, i will check it out.

 

Yes i love the black on black, it looks tough as hell. I can't really say the bottom end on mine sucks, it's just that first gear is a little sluggish out of the box, but once you get into 2nd and up the gears it rips. The only thing i have done to it is Toomey t6 pipes and the jet kit it comes with. I will also be putting on some noss cool heads and some other things like timing plate and some billet stuff. Good luck on your mods and keep us posted.

 

i put the pipes on the banshee yup its starting to move now. i bought the jet kit but the bikes runs good,should i jet it anyways? how complicated is installing the jet kit?


p.s. the burning feeling frm the exhaust feels so good[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
