Banshee motor in dirtbike ?

[erik6767]

has anyone ever seen it or heard of it? would it be possible?

[Kane]

I've seen an RZ350 converted to a dirtbike by a dumbass hillbilly with no money. That was about the biggest crime I'd ever seen at the time.

[Duneman101]

seems like a stupid idea to me...

Why??????????????? In making a hybrid such as this, you are saying:
1. I have no idea how to get the most potential out of the stock motor
2. I want all the attention at the dunes, woods, etc.
3. I am suicidal, and want to go WAY fast before my Frankenstein's monster cobbled up POS bike falls apart on me
4. I have too much time and/or money on my hands

Can't we just leave the Banshee motor in the Banshee? Stroke it, Cheetah Cub it, drag pipe it, put a damn fogger bottle on it, whatever.....just leave it in there

It's like putting a baboon heart in a human.....it's just not natural........

banshee engines are not by any means compact... It would be a bitch and a half squeezing it in there

what about those 4 cylinder street bike engines you see in those hill climb bikes? it looks like they are able to cram them things in there and still make the bike look pretty good. If I was going to build a hill climb bike a banshee engine would be one of my first choices. I know it wouldn't be as fast as the 4 banger bikes, but it would sound and look alot better and probably be one of a kind.

just picture a banshee motor settin in one of those bikes, big long swingarm and paddle tire, big chrome pipes coming out each side by the tank with dual silencers out the rear. I know it would take alot of work to make it look right, but to me it would be worth it and you would deffinatly have a bad ass bike
