how much hp does a stock blaster have

[firefighterjosh]

I belive it is just under 20 HP. 18???

[bigwheeler]

is it impossible to get it up to like 60hp with out nos cause im bout to make it a 240 stroker with all add-ons possible and i want it to out run a banshee

only doing this for ****s and grins

[300ex mxracer]

Theres no way you could get a blaster motor up to 60hp and it not blow up in a few mins or maybe a hour of riding, even if its possible , 60hp ya right! ,,lol

[250r4life]

why????







a 60 hp blaster would be nuts... pretty much unrideable... with how small that thing is and its crappy suspension and yada yada... you wouldnt be able to keep the front end down...

it'd be a big waste of money, cuz getting it even like over 40 would make it extremely unreliable, and then you would blow it, and nobody is going to want to buy a blaster that has had that much work done to it and is that high maintenance... so if you feel like throwing several thousand dollars down the drain to have a blown up blaster sitting in your garage here in the near future, go right ahead...

ps- i still dont think it is possible...

[LT250RMan]

ya man 60 hp its not possible, maybe 35 hp max and then you would be pushing it, and plus its air cooled it would never handle the heat from 60HP, lol

yah, youre pretty dead on... 35 would probably be about your limit... maybe a little more with extreme extreme extreme mods, but...

[CHEVYZ]

Listen to these guys... becuase they are pretty darn correct. You can get the HP up pretty decently on a Blaster, and it will run well becuase it is a very small bike. However, that HP rating sounds pretty unreasonable, and it would be a constant battle to keep pretty much anything on it together. Hell, I have a buddy with a decent 240 and he has had quite a bit of problems in the little time that he has had it. JMO, it isn't worth it in the long run.:scary:

[xtullyx16]

why is the blaster and yfz so fast stock... they both beat 450r in full out throttle! and the yfz is way faster in the turns and everything. i was just wondering why.. if im right about all this lol.. but to let u all know the 450r is still, i think, kick *** but the yfz is just soo fast

[CHEVYZ]

Are you serious? That is very WRONG. A Blaster is not even close to a 450r. A modified Balster cannot keep up with a 400EX. As far as the YFZ, again, very untrue. I ride with everything, including a few YFZs. All of them are modified, and just about everyone has more than me. I still eat the YFZs up. As far as stock, I don't know about previous years, but I raced my bone stock 06 450r against a 06 YFZ and I could pull away easily. This is all in a drag though. In cornering, I would expect the YFZ to do, as said, slightly better becuase of its lower COG. Just wondering, but how in the hell did you come to that conclusion between these bikes?

[250r4life]

i think he meant banshee, but that doesnt merit you changing your response too much :D

[CHEVYZ]

Well, that would make a little more sense. Banshees are corked up like hell stock, though, so a stock Banshee really isn't too fast. It is mostly when you open them up and do a little work ( Like port work) that they come alive. But yeah, like I said, a stock YFZ and 450r are close stock and modified just depends on what you have to spend. It is nothing like he describes it as, but maybe that is only my opinion.

[bigwheeler]

im pretty convinced that i cant get it up to 60 hp so mabe 40 ill be fine but wondering if i could still keep up with a mild modded banshee cause i seen a picture of a blaster on the net out running some modded banshees in a drag race but i have only been able to out run a stock 400ex with exhaust when i had dg exhaust, k&n,bored 30 over. and i have LOTS more i can put in it. or should i drop the blaster and get a ktm250sx .

IMO, drop the blaster and get the KTM. KTMs are very good bikes.... in fact my friend races MX and is gonna be picking one up a few months from now because of what he has heard and seen at the track.

If you do want to make the blaster run, it is possible, but like I said it will be extremly unreliable! The Blaster is more of a beginners bike, so although it is capable, it was never truly designed to handle that kind of output. There are a few guys on here that could probably help you out if you are interested in a Blaster build. Its YOUR decision in the end.:macho

there is no way u could outrun a piped 400 with a piped blaster unless the other guy dont know how to ride.

[CHEVYZ]

As I have been saying alot on here lately, you would be surprised at how much results can vary. My buddy who has the blaster had a similar set-up.. just better exhaust.... and he has beaten stock 400EXs before. He thought he was gonna beat mine with only a pipe, but I walked away from him from start to finish like it wasn't a race. He said that mine was the fastest he had ever seen, and he could not figure out why. My bike simply ran strong, and I knew how to ride it. Like said, results may vary.

[ryanh250ex]

go ahead and do it. i'm not sure about 60 hp, but if you run crazy compression and alcohol, it could be done. it'd definitely be up there.

[bigwheeler]

i think im gonna go for the ktm i like two wheels more while landing jumps and im on the 7th enigne on my blaster so i think i made a smart decision


and i did outrun a piped 400 with my blater it was only 100yds and i did have 18 inch tires on the back too.

thanks everyone

7th engine? jesus christ, what are you doing :eek2: :eek2: :eek2:

[xtullyx16]

yeah sorry guys i ment banshee..... and my bros piped yfz always beats his friends 450r in like 2 acres draggin .. so i dunno maybe the guy who rides the 450r blows or my brother should race mx lol

[bigwheeler]

i like to see what the new engines can do befor they break in lol dont ever rev 11000 rpms with a brand new top end

[LT250RMan]

ohh a banshee, ya man you can get a banshee to have more than 60hp.

[250r4life]

that was a different guy.. the guy who said 60 hp was talking about a blaster... he said he'd put a 240 kit on it...

[bigwheeler]

Phantom Fire-Breather 240cc Cylinder Kit - Want to go bigger? Do you like scaring yourself? This is the 240cc version that is also ported to the extreme by Diamond Racing to gain the maximum amount of power. It requires the use of 108-110 octane race gas, and you must send your head to have it re-worked for the cylinder. WARNING: This is a big bore full-blown race cylinder! It loves to go fast and attract attention everywhere.

Diamond Racing Stroker Cranks:
Diamond Racing 3mm Stroker Crank $360 + good core
Case Machining (if it is sent with empty cases) $75
To put it in if whole engine is sent $125

The perfect carburetor for racing.
Use the 28mm for mild to average engine work or extreme 200cc engines and the 35mm for extreme engine work or 240cc big bores.

k&n, dg exhaust, boysen power reeds, ebc cutch,

about how much hp power would it dish out and how long would it run

[250r4life]

i cant imagine you being anything over 35, if that... and who knows how long it would run... you gotta remember all that added horsepower is just wear and tear... your bottom end wasnt made for that kind of HP, so obviously it will wear out quicker... it could go a day, it could go for years... bikes are funny things...

[bigwheeler]

ok then thats all i wanted to no i should of left it stock bore but oh well im gettin a dirt bike lol

thanks

oh....... you could never get 60hp from a blaster engine even if you did everything you could to it

[bigwheeler]

actually i think it is possible but your gonna be runnin nos with thousands of dollars in the engine which i dont have lol

man the crank would never handle 60hp.

[bigwheeler]

if you get the right one it might but ah hell ill never be able to see for sure so im thinkin the same as you something is gonna break

[LT250RMan]

ya man i would just put a diffrent engine in the blaster frame, if you like how the blaster handles put a liquid cooled YZ250 dirt bike engine in it.

[bigwheeler]

that would be bad ***
great idea
it dont handle very good but like how little it is lol
