06specialedition Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 I'm running a pingle with a stock carbs and 320 mains...so far bike runs really well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shanYE west Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 I dont think fuel supply is your problem and a pingel probably wont help.. I'd check your float settings and make sure your needle and seat is clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobrabc1993 Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 Make sure the vent on your Gas tank cap is good.... Make sure you can blow thru it easily..... If not, you need to take it off and gut the internals..... I was having the same issues last year on a ported stock crank, cylinder banshee..... and i was running the dual pingel... It was sorta causing a vacuum lock, and 3to 4th gear pull, i was sucking my bowls dry, with 34mm carbs...... Also, make sure your fuel feed lines are in good shape, no extreme kinks or bends, and that they are routed good..... And if your making decent power, you should put the dual pingel on your set up..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee35005 Posted May 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 i just put in some 400 main jets on the mikuni 28 flat slides and running almost perfect now but still feels like 6th gear dont pull quite as hard as it should maybe i need new k&N clamp ons the old ones are well used and looking pretty beat or maybe 410-420 main jets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKheathen Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 haha, jetting was the first thing i was gonna suggest. yah, you should be within 1 size by now, if it is just 6th, and 5th is pullin good.......probably do a plug chop once it pulls fine, just to be sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
