Port job is the first thing to do on a banshee. Go 115 thousands higher on the exhaust port. 160 thousands higher on the intake ports. Unshroud the transfer ports without narrowing it towards the intake inlets. Case port it to match the bottom of cylinders. Worm hole cylinders without ruining them or you will need to weld the hole by the rear base nuts. Should add 2-3 thousand rpm to your redline.😃
I got the Lectron Carb on my banshee but I did the conversion of a single carb instead of two, I like the set up because only one carb to tune and only one air filter!
fatty pipes, porting, 35mm carbs, advance the timing 4 degrees, stronger clutch springs, ceramic clutch release ball to prevent welding, k&n clamp on filter with outwears, have the shifter star modified for smoother shifts, and have the flywheel machined to lighten it. mine was also a 370 long rod. pulled 5th gear wheel stands going downhill in the sand. real fun adrenaline rush!
Fmf pipe good power 😂 and a lockup before 70hp its completely useless... Top 5 parts are ; pipe , carbs pwk , air filter direct , coolhead and ajustable timing plate !
Yeah really though you probably are fine with stock clutch unless u get a big bore or stroker kit. But coolhead and adjustable timing plate is def a solid route to go
Sounds amazing dude, need a little help , i just got my banshee and i am new to it. I want to ask you about the premix ratio of petrol and oil, and can you please tell me that in liters, like 1 litre oil in how much liters petrol i should mix. I bought yamaha lube .
You want belray MC1 at a ratio of 40 parts fuel to one part oil, assuming your top end is not brand new. (32:1 if breaking in a new top end) invest in a 'ratio rite' cup for mixing fuel.
I have a 97 banshee and I’m having a hard time tuning my carbs . I’ve cleaned both carbs & jets she starts in one kick but sometimes she bogs out … can you recommend how to tune ?? The TORS are removed she runs good but after a while she starts to bog out .. any help would be appreciated @Rocky Mountain ATV MC
what exhaust boots / clamps are those one the fmf pipes to the mufflers? i keep melting the rubber ones you buy off ebay or amazon. and i don't see them on the site under exhaust for a 1997 banshee
You can measure the air filter you have on now or the diameter of your carburetor where the clamp on filter would go. On the product page there are many different sizes so you can find something that will work for your set up. www.rockymountainatvmc.com/parts/k-%26-n-clamp-on-air-filter-p
Rocky Mountain ATV MC I’m aware but including a lockout clutch as a top 5 performance mod just based off add pipes airbox carb mods is misleading. A lockout isn’t needed at all for simple bolt on mods. My banshee has airbox opened up single 35mm carb intake reeds pipes and cool head with 21cc domes for 93 pump gas and my clutch is still totally stock and doesn’t slip at all and doesn’t even have upgraded springs. Just my opinion, I’d have had suspension and widening as my number 1 performance mod as banshees suck bad in comparison with the new 450’s for handling.
@@rmatvmc 4 mils do just fine with a driveline clutch kit w/ HD springs and Type F ATF. Much cheaper that way. Those lockout case covers that are required when using the lockout are $$$

This quad has the Tusk Adjustable Width Racing Axle to give it the wider stance.

Hey if I take off my stock air box and put uni air pods on my banshee do I have to re jet my carbs or will my bike be fine with just installing uni pods?
believe it or not, im actually looking for an airbox now.. I live in PA and everywhere you go theres puddles everywhere, my filters sucked in water and shut it all down
Yes we can ship to Ireland. Some manufacturers have restrictions on what we can export but if you have any questions feel free to email sales@rockymountainatv.com and we'd be happy to help!
If you aren't riding desert or dunes and need some torque, the banshee really responds well to is a single carb and single pipe along with RD400 rods and stock Banshee pistons (not blaster pistons or striker cranks if you want torque and reliability) Motofast did it the best but unfortunately they are out of business. They built engines for Grand National Cross Country riders Kim Kuhnle and Ricky Matteson. If you can find a Motofast single carb manifold or single pipe, buy it immediately.
Great point. You are correct, even though it'll cost at least a few hundred dollars it's definitely still a great bang for your buck when you want more power. Thanks for the input, Claude!
@@davidquezada1938 Stock engine are not set for optimal performances. On a 2 strokes, casting have flaw and rough surfaces and the "timing" (size and height of cylinders windows/ports) is on the very safe side. To make a long story short, there is a lot of free HP in a stock engine to be "freed up". It's usually the most cost effective way to gain hp's.
When properly set up, yes! I plan to mainly trail ride my mostly stock 1996 Banshee. All I have done is a 4 degree timing advance, shift improvement mods, a billet water pump gear, case saver, and a Pro-Design filter. It still lugs around pretty well the the stock carbs and pipes when tuned right. But when you want the power roll onto the throttle or blip the clutch and gas it and it's there!

Get V- Force Reeds too
Kept the stock airbox on mine but put a pro flow design filter on it so I don't have to run the lid on it. Added Toomey t5's to it as well for now.
liked before even watching cause i know this video is gonna be amazing!!
Love these new videos, keep it up!
The blaster is good as well
What size swing arm and axle are you running on the banshee ?

V Force reeds would be a good number 6
Best thing to do is cool head,toomies, 35mm carbs,port and polish,
Love it!

on it
I wanna banshee soooo bad!😞
To each there own use to be in to this stuff when younger just like hunting now cool atv thpugh
Lockout clutch is overkill unless you go 4 mil or larger. Stock clutch holds just fine unless you’re ported to the gills or stroking the crank.
This quad does have over-sized pistons and stroker crank as well.

Hey if I take off my stock air box and put uni air pods on my banshee do I have to re jet my carbs or will my bike be fine with just installing uni pods?
Hard to say till you do it. But anytime you potentially add more airflow, your jetting will change so it's a good chance you'll need to re-jet.
I have an 88 all stock for sale.
In Florida.
Signed by Evel Knievel.
Yeah lectron carbs are just a little pricey
wheres yer skid plate or case saver...you missed the 1st things bud.
But when you add this you add this and that this that and this 😏 . Trust me I know , and love it all the time !
I’m switching to air pods. Can anyone tell me what they did or were to bolt the coolant reservoir?
They sell a metal bracket that goes where your stock airbox is located. I actually bought it here on Rocky Mountain atv.
How much did it cost for the 2 lectionary carbs and air filter with it? Over 1400 USD?
The first link in the description will take you to a page where you can check out all the parts we used on this Banshee.
What makes the ringing bell aound on banshees when they're revved up?

Yes unless its dragging on the street low lol

Yeah I still dont have an airbox on my banshee

Hi: what is the mm on letron carb
We ran 34mm but it will vary depending on what you have done to your Banshee.
Are you using race gas? 110 octane?
No, just pump gas for this Banshee.
Thanks for watching!
No reason to run any higher octane than necessary.
I'm seriously considering those lectrons. Anybody know what a set for a Banshee runs? Couldn't find details on their site. Need to call I guess?
They are like $500 a pop brand new so you're looking at $1000 for a banshee
Aaron Wilkerson was it worth the $$ ? How’s the set up on your bike?

Funny you didnt mention porting, because that's the cheapest hp/$$ you can get.
You're trying too hard guys ;-)
Great point. You are correct, even though it'll cost at least a few hundred dollars it's definitely still a great bang for your buck when you want more power.

It still lugs around pretty well the the stock carbs and pipes when tuned right. But when you want the power roll onto the throttle or blip the clutch and gas it and it's there!
I do just fine with mine on the trails.
A 2-into-1 pipe really smooths out the hit for trails.
I have a Motofast 2:1 pipe and silencer for sale. Let me know if interested.
Anyone have a banshee for sell?
With high compreshon and FMF pipes it will blow up so fast
Nautilus gaming try running the right premix
Only if you're not jetted correctly. Higher compression will also require bigger jetting.
Hahahahahahahaha
500 $ for a carburator 😭
1000
That's 500 each for 2 carbs= a grand
1) extended swing arms(crucial)
2) extended axle(crucial)
3) exhaust
4) filter
5) It's still useless at the track. Great for dunes, though.
