What’s your opinion on maxima 927? I’ve been running it In my bikes and skis. Don’t seem to see much build up. And I know castor protects very well

Do the bolts at 8:24 hold down the round part on powervalve tightly? Mine have a bit of play and I wonder if I need to shorten my bolts so it holds down snug.

@@highlandcycles I'm aware of both and have both and have rebuilt both numerous times. I just know that the Banshee basically proves that power valves aren't that necessary for a powerful 2 stroke engine. Although, on the other hand, a 250cc 2 stroke dirtbike has way more hp than the 350 Banshee... So nvm..🤣

@@geopioneergsxr5357 I wasn’t meaning to be a jerk. Some people just don’t know what a power valve does. It definitely doesn’t make more power. Just a broader power band so they are easier to ride.

Great video👍🏻 Question. I have a 2004 Yamaha yz125 I was told the are a few different size of pistons those bikes take how do you tell which one your bike takes? This would make a great video by the way..

Originally its stamped on the cylinder. A B C or D. If that is worn off you have to measure but the reality is that the difference in size is almost negligible. I almost always use a B piston.
