Your best bet is Ricky stator.

He’s a single cylinder loving homo (inside joke) from way back. He may have one.

Total garbage! I’d trust a 20 year old factory one before any of that junk!

OH ok, My buddy got an Amazon one and it was crap. Ricky stator one worked .

 

[Morehart]

I found one you can have

 

[69hondo]

Maybe BDT mototrsports in Rancho?

I know nothing

I do have several. I just have to dig through my junk and find them. I think I actually have a few NOS.

This is a reminder I need to get my 85 Honda ATC finished.

Yamahas need two cylinders to make power, Hondas need one and are far superior @n2otoofast4u

you are sadly mistaken. 250r's have there place but it's not building HP or going fast. Motocross 30+yrs ago is about it there is a reason they only built them for 3years.

My ATC 250r has a nice powerband and for sure kinda quick but NOTHING like any newer quad. Sure is fun as hell though

4 years four the fourtrax 250r. Don't get me wrong I love all 2 strokes. The banshee with Toomey pipes sounded amazing.

They were TOO FAST and deemed unsafe by the Government. LOL.

I'll always be loyal to Honda's ...... Bansheees suck.

They suck twice as much because they have 2 carbs.
And strange as it sounds of a guy does a single carb manifold deal on a banshee some how it sucks 3 times as much

Anyone that puts a single carb on a banshee should be slapped

Ordinarily I’d agree.
I know two sucker....guys. That bought that garage.
One is fairly normal. I’ll slap him.
They other guy.
He stands 6’6 and weighs about 280.
I’ll let you slap him

My kid wants a Banshee next. I have him on a Blaster with a CT kit now. I've lost the patience to want to mess with the quads, I have three kids running around on them in the dunes. I think he will get a nice/newer 450 next. I couldn't imagine tuning two carbs on a banshee. They sound good and can look good, I still love my Hondas though.

The reason behind the Blaster was I wanted him to learn how to ride something with a power band, clutch and a kick start. His last quad was electric start. He had it easy...

I couldn’t agree more with your second paragraph, good plan.

I can understand someone being hesitant on a banshee because of the 2 carb deal.
For what it’s worth? My Raptor 660 has 2 carbs also, and is 5x the pain in the ass vs a banshee.


And for what it’s worth version 2.0
Back in the day when the banshee was the hot item I knew a guy that between him and his new wife had 6 children.
He, the wife, and all the kids rode banshee. And he had a hill banshee on alcohol. So, 9 Banshees total.

Don’t be a pussy, Hammer

Tuning a banshee is super simple. Actually less finicky and more forgiving the a 250r. And their shin will thank you(any 250r guy knows)

I tuned my 250r's in like a few hours and they ran great for years. If you kick it like a man you have no problems. Yamahas short stroke kickers are the ones that are backwards.

Yamaha lost me with that stupid TORS system. Yamaha is all foreign to me. JUNK

 

[sprintcvx]

I'm going to start a 2FF thread shortly and sell my '85 250R. I turned 60, I'm not going to ride this thing anymore. I want a golf cart.

Caps, cable and idle screws and the TORS are gone. Cost about $50 and an hour of your time

[JUSTWANNARACE]

If you guy are near socal you have one of the best banshee and 250r gurus of the past right there. IF you can get him to work on it. I dont think he work on many anymore

 

[Rupp250]

If you can't find a good OEM, look up Patrick McCarthy on FB. If my current supply of CR250 ignitions ever crap out that is what I probably will be doing

 

[JUSTWANNARACE]

Banshee basic tuning

- 300-330 main
- 27.5-30 pilot
- Stock needle(5N7)- clip in the middle (
( @n2otoofast4u and myself may or may not have depleted availability of those)
- 1.5-2.5 turns out from seated on the air screws
- sync carbs

I'd make more on all the center shift forks I have for a 250r

The TORS crap came out of my banshee in 1988, twist throttle.

I know a retired guy going through his 2nd mid life crisis.
Used to ride one.

What do you want for it?
What does it need?
A project would almost be better.

The mention of "electric" does not belong in this thread 2-stroke polluters only

Speaking of bending needles. I came across this pic the other day! Take note of the wires to the fuel solenoid!!

 

[bonesfab]

I still have my 86 250r fourtrax from years ago. I keep threatening to get it out and make it run again to have some fun in the easement.

Blasters are fun too.. with great potential with the correct work. I have built a few. One of the cyl heads I did.

The engraving on the cyl and the sticker on the swingarm means the price goes down right?

This motor runs pretty good. This ain’t no drag queen. All your stuff is on another level.

That’s pretty! I’d rather have a water cooled engine, but it was free. The kid loves it. It definitely has potential.

Not just drag queens. Play bikes too.. these were just a few

I'll see if I can find some pics of my 250r's
