Yamaha Banshee swing arm/carrier promblem

[waraches]

i need some help with my banshee it shakes really bad when i get on it full throttle i thought it was the carrier but i replace and still the same if anybody can help thanks

[bansheeseat$$]

it shakes when you are at higher speeds???If so check your hubs and axle and see if they are bent.Sounds like your axle is bent though.Or possibly your rims are bent.

hubs might be loose.....

check the tires for bulges, axle for straight, hubs and wheels for bends.

can you help a sand brotha out, we are going to need alot more info than what you supplied.

What do you mean it shakes at full throttle, are you moving?

Are you riding wide open and what gear?

Shakes are pretty easy to find, where is it shaking handlebars, rear end, front end, engine section?

Are you sure the swingarm bolt is tight?

if its the front end, pick it up and spend the wheels, do they wobble?

Got any mud on your rims, this will cause it, easy fix.

I'm a suzuki guy, and its been years since I had my old banshee, but have you done any motor work recently? is it counterbalanced, if you had it apart did you put it back together?

Jack up the Banshee on the atv stand.. I'm thinkin bent axle! Does anything rattle?
Before this happened did you hit anything? Take a big jump or roll the Banshee?

Banshee engines aren't counterbalanced. The crank or flywheel may be starting to separate cuasing a balance issue in the engine. As asked before, did you do any recent work to the engine? How old is your crank/bearings? Are the bores the same size, with the same brand pistons? Are all of your chassis bolts tight? How are the condition of your ball joints, tie rods and a-arm bushings?
