I'm at 15/41... 20/11/9... i could easily go 16 front or drop to 40 or 39 rear maybe... i understand 22 tall tires. XC trails have ruts. Thats a very delicate subject of speed and obviously line choices play a factor... with that being said? How much power 🔋 are you making? Bigger tires require more power 🔋
The balance is very important. I have the fastest quad in Florida. Not even myself ( double AA rider ) on dirt bikes can keep up!!! If a banshee is setup for drag 🏁 racing it's gonna be fast... if a banshee is setup for dessert 🏁 racing it's gonna be fast. If a banshee is setup for pikes peek it will be fast 🏃♂️
I had the porting done by HJR. He said with my stroker setup on stock carbs it should be capable of 70hp. So conservatively speaking, I can say confidently it's somewhere in the 60s. I could get a second opinion from Sabo's ass-dyno haha. All I know is the midrange port I have has plenty of power for the woods and it is the smoothest power and I've been on. It actually has a fair amount of low and mid range before the lights turn on. I've been on a few other banshees and I have yet to witness another that has any low end like mine. HJR knows what he's doing. Many banshees are simply overpowered for the woods racing. I'd argue 60hp may be I needed as well. The type of power is key. I mean I lost the 2024 season to a guy on a 400ex haha. I'm not the fastest. But neither was he. But he certainly made that 35hp work just fine.
HJR does really good working. I know banshees like mine or yours are capable of carrying gears ⚙️. XC really is more about controlling that speed ( power ) and obviously handling. Handling is 🔑
Coming along nicely man 🤟🤟
Yfz is 51 spidle to axle stock. My friend mx raced a banshee and said a -1 swing arm is perfect
@@JeffPeterson-x8u Thank you sir. I appreciate the feedback.
Well, I went -2. But so far I really like it.

In racing 🏁 or all out trails riding. Some bikes are over powered. Others are under handling?
