sheerider11 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Are you breaking everything into 1/8's? So does 2/8 actually mean 1/4? 6/8=3/4? And what is rich rich lean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kleinki Posted January 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 The rich rich lean is what i got from the keihin chart.. Just wane make sure its what the letters stands for...

JKJK Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 E series needles are stupid rich off idle usually reserved for alcohol applications.C series are more typical for most banshee applications. let us know more info on your set up+I'm sure we can get you real close to optimum for your needs.

camatv Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 your best bet is to start with a known good needle for banshee motors and jet from there. get the pilot and main to where its really good and then after moving needle up or down one clip it still has issues and EVERYTHING ELSE IS RIGHT look at a differnt needle. using needle alone when you can fix an issue with pilot or main is a little overkill. the banshee is a very jetted motor and pretty much any combo can be ran on just a few needles. gas/ or alky luckly your not installing a unknown carb on a never ran combo before. i have jetted a webber dcnf 40mm to a 750 twin from scratch thats a night mare.

sleeper06 Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 I've ran eek,dek,dej needles in 2-1 set ups . Put a known needle in it like above get it to idle good , chop the plugs to dial in main then fox with the needle adjustment. If you have a good ear and jetting experience shouldn't be a problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
