@StupidFastJohn what's your take on the 2 to 1? I have it on a banshee I bought this summer, and it has top end bog, I changed the needle clip position and it helped but it still doesn't like full throttle, and it doesn't like 5th and 6th, 6th it fully fulls on its face, just curious if that's just a 2 to 1 issue? It's got cool heads and fmf fattys.
So it needed a larger pilot if your .5 turns out from seated. More pilot would allow more air screw adjustability and help to lean the needle from full rich to probably 3rd or 4th clip instead. Plug chop the main.
I know this isn’t something normally give a shit about when it comes to your vids, but the soundtrack you put along is always badASS. Love the dope house beats and the hardcore rock 🤙🏼 makes watching your videos 10x better
I am 55 now, in the day had an 89, bought it new. Cced The head aftermarket carburetors with external air cleaners different reeds ported polished intake and exhaust FMF, aftermarket clutch pack, and finally a Wrist throttle.That thing was incredibly fast till this day I still miss it.
My Banshee sounds just exactly like this one you are working on and I checked the compression and it was 112 and I was sure that that was my bog issue but I’ve not put rings in it yet cause I’ve got a few other rides but this video made me 100% sure that’s what my issue is
After seeing that low of compression on a performance two stroke i would have told them top end kit right off the bat. Classic two stroke low compression symptoms
What s the advantage of the alpha cub cylinder? better port design? Thanks I have a stock 2000 banshee except tors delete and am trying to decide if I leave it I dig in and get the quad scooting a bit better! Thanks
Is it possible to change the outer crank bearings on a OEM crank? I've read that they are so hard to get off so its better to just replace the whole crank..
I have a 09 raptor 90, I kind of have the same problem. When it is full throttle then let it off slowly for couple of seconds and back on, it bogs real. Does the same thing after hitting a bump or jump. Any idea of what this could be?
@@XXHellBig125XX definetely 2, we are actually getting ready to put 2 back on this one as well. Much safer having all the fuel you need for supply imo and less risk of running the float bowl dry 🤙
only thing I see is using any gasket seal on cometic and intake gaskets is something I have never done the cometic has sealer made on it and no need for sealer on and carb or intake but we all have our own way
I have never had a set of cometic gaskets with a sealer built into it for an atv or a banshee. I put 3 bond or yamabond on all paper or felt gaskets to give the best seal for the crankcase. Intakes and cylinder base are a well known leaking point on all yamaha banshees... do you booboo 🤙
I run 280 mains, stock pistons with mild ported cylinders, fmf fattys, stock dual carbs with dual long k@n filters, v force-4 reeds , and a coolhead , , I honestly think the jetting needs to be upped , it made a major difference on my banshee, my buddy runs 300 mains in his banshee, 175 mains sound lean to me , but with the large mains my fuel consumption is retarded but the power difference is crazy 🤪 and my plugs are beautiful coffee coloured
I have no idea what the main jetting on a single carb like that would be tho, I would think ya gotta double the mains on a single but I’m most likely wrong about that lol, if it were mine I’d rip that single carb off and put dual carbs back on with 300mains and take it for a rip and see if there’s a big difference 🤔
Man, I still want to see you do a full TRX250R build, and make it an XC race bike… nobody does full XC builds on TH-cam, especially on 2-strokes. You could potentially be the first to my knowledge. Everyone either builds drag bikes or MX bikes. Hell, I even see people building quads for the street, but never for cross country racing. And with a lot of the trail riding I’ve seen you doing I think an XC build would fit the bill really good for a good daily trail rider. Also, nobody ever builds banshees for any other racing except drag racing anymore. I feel like if you did some research on the sport of cross country racing you could probably build a banshee that could compete pretty good.
Plz people dont use a toothbrush or any wire brushes to clean mating surfaces unless u have all ports, holes, crevises, anything anywhere junk can fall into totally covered and i mean covered up wellll. Let a bristle or 2 fall down into the bottom end. U dont think shit of it til a wired bristle gets down in a roller bearing, or goes thru an oil passage or even worse imagine that guy gets hung up in the oil squirter jet. Or it gets hung up in on or god forbid it penetrates and damages a seal.. so many bad things can come maybe not immediately but sooner rather than later itll have a cause and affect scenario happen. And ud be none the wiser if it was to ruin a bearing and destroy itself in the process ud think it was just a bad part. In reality u caused the bad part.
I see your point about putting something in the crankcase. There was nothing on the cases that could fall in on this one though thats why i didnt touch base here. Ive been using plastic brushes to clean the surfaces for many years without any issues. A plastic bristle wont do damage to steel imo.
I dont tell you anything your just assuming. Tell me you have never installed coolhead o rings without actually telling me... Thats just to hold the orings in place while the head is upside down 🤦♂️ some people use grease some use rtv.
those loook like china A arms also (not that they are bad they work for what most use a banshee for) why da fuk does someone put a rev box on a banshee??? i never understood like the boostbottle that some have
That was a good technique for old school deep groove honing. Todays nikasil coatings have a much more shallow hone and need to seal a little faster. My method is 2 heat cycles and send it. Hasnt failed me in over 10 years 🤙
@@StupidFastJohnyou say in this video you can tell chinese stator by the plug? That would be vakueble info on my hunt if you didnt mind shareing how i could tell
Believe it or not we thought the bog was the low compression and needing a top end because obviously the thing ran great with a new top but the symptoms wound up coming back and what we found was whomever installed the bottom end last forgot one of the cranks circlips and the crank under load would rub the inside of the case because that clip stops the crank from shifting at all but the video is meant to showcase some of the things to check over.

i love it dude . my first race bike was an 01 blue banshee with pro circuit pipes and 304 silencers . i miss the sound of that girl 🤣🤣
I’m running a caltric electrical system coil, stator, wiring harness, everything on a big bore banshee I’ve had zero issues big runs beautiful
When I get the cash flow I wanna run some Lectrons on mine with a set of those T5's. Nothing sounds as awesome as these Toomey's
Good video for the weekend 😃 always something fun to watch unless you are wess breaking down 😮
🤣🤣🤣
This is a real stress relieving machine :)

Cool video I'm kinda going through a wierd issue with my banshee too right now. Def learned got some good insight 👍
Love these vids so much
No choking needed now!
pulls out fast now!
No pun intended lol
I like that lol
I love Banshee quads
first thing you check is compression ...when compression under 120 its time for a new top end ....then you screw with the other stuff later ...
He's really not the brightest look his name begins with stupid lol

Great video, super informative!
Sounds real lean on top I’d check float levels an jetting also crank seals
You didn’t explain at the end of the video why it was still bogging.
We need a video on that Sandrail/dune buddy!!
Next week 🤙
He said, “Man this thing is rowdy!”
I love your little sayings bro shit is entertaining!
Great job bro but I just have one question?
What do your heat cycles look like for breaking in the rings so they seat properly?
Build the KFX 700!
She deserves it brother man!
Is it possible to change the outer crank bearings on a OEM crank? I've read that they are so hard to get off so its better to just replace the whole crank..
Hey John. I have a 96 banshee that needs some attention. Where’s the best place to order parts other then the Amazon Chinese knock offs?
Sounds good but still sounds like you can get it tuned for more lower end that thing should rip a 3rd gear hole shot no prob .
I have a 09 raptor 90, I kind of have the same problem. When it is full throttle then let it off slowly for couple of seconds and back on, it bogs real. Does the same thing after hitting a bump or jump. Any idea of what this could be?
I see the burn out line under the banshee at the end of the video wish you would have filmed it
That was this banshee 🤙
m.th-cam.com/video/h7R6PxK0ryo/w-d-xo.html
Probably needs another top end after John got done riding it LOL
Lmao!!! 😅
He is on the Pipe!!!!
Question how do you check the compression test on a 2016 raptor 700r the same way thru the spark plug?
Yes through the spark plug hole
Ok thanks.And you do beautiful work with these quads 👍🏾
@@NastyNaz1000 im not the guy who made the video but I do have a little bit of experience but always happy to lend a hand
Nice video great job
John back at it again trynna grab 7th gear🤣‼️
🤣🤣🤣
do you prefer 1 carb setup on a banshee or or 2 carb are better?
@@XXHellBig125XX definetely 2, we are actually getting ready to put 2 back on this one as well. Much safer having all the fuel you need for supply imo and less risk of running the float bowl dry 🤙
@@StupidFastJohn yeah i got a setup 1 carb on the one i just purchased and i heard 2 are more safer the 1 even tho the setup 1 carb worth 800 buck
The grayish liquid from the spark plugs is because it’s running rich ?
Can you do a breakdown video on a ltr 450
Sweeeet video great job 👏🏾 👍🏾
Yo, where are you from? I need some work done on my blaster.

great video thank you!
About how much money did this cost? U do good work. T 5s sound awesome
It was 1300 for the kit on bp racing atv website 🤙

Thats on mikuni carbs (thats what came stock) the keihin jet sizing range is completely different. I follow the plug chop because it never lies...

Mikuni and keihen carbs are different jets, mikuni has their own sizes, and keihen has theres
Get dual carbs for it try that out

I LOVE IT!!!!
Im not a big fan of the single carb on the banshee, stick to the twin carbs

Where are you located
Catawissa pa
There's nothing slight about that bog.
One more! No one more!!!
Excellent job buddy well diagnosed job well done !
Float level
That thing is mean man 👨

And "there's nothing like a fresh banshee"??? I'm pretty sure there is. It's a fresh RZ350!!!
Think the big is coming from having a single carb

Make him get a air box, the reason you have no bottom end is there's no air box, allowing velocity at off the line throttle,
Swap you a MINT 2018 700 prolly 20hrs on it Lol
Wish you would of got to me yesterday, she gone last night

Low compression
Ok so what was causing the bog? Wtf

wrong needle!! what is the needle? my guess is its not the proper needle, even after all that..
Thats why i don't buy those knock off carbs
Single carb on a Banshee, really. Thats just wrong bro
Single carb is so much easier to tune and don’t have to worry about the carbs being out of sync with each other
Nice. Banshee. Turbo blaster updates yet?
👍✌
