 |
|
Hey Guys,
Stripped te banshee to night. Gong to to need to get my pistons now.
What is the best piston to run with on the banshees?
I have a std exhaust ect bike stock. loooking for more low down power.
Are wiseco the go? I have heard of people having problems with these pistons in the past and a bit unsure.
What do you guys run in your?
Cheers
Mike |

you might have heard stories of wisecos in other applications, but they very rarely go wrong in a banshee
if your going oversize i would get wiseco, just make sure your the machine shop knows they are forged and need the correct bore clearance (its written on the wiseco box)
how much are genuine yamaha pistons? the rings alone are like $130 a set! _________________ 2002 SE Banshee |

you can probably do it for half that using wisecos and doing it yourself.
its piss easy _________________ 2002 SE Banshee |
