Richmrf Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 I just rejetted my 01 and it started on the second kick. At first I thought everything was perfect but it puts out a ton of white smoke. With the choke on, I found that the left cylinder (by putting my hand in front of the exhaust) was only firing half as much as the right side. After it was warm enough to take the choke off, it flipped. The right side wasn't firing as much. It also would backfire and eventually die when the choke was off. With the choke on, at first glance and if you ignore the white smoke, it ran great. No problem going from idle to wide open several times. (I haven't adjusted the idle yet) My guess is it is way Rich. My air screws are 2 turns out. Do you think I can lean it out enough with the air screw? Or do you think it is something else all together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickedcarbine Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 That pilot is definitely rich. Try the 27.5, the needle is probably ok to start, but I'd imagine the main will need some leaning up as well. Might wind up at about 290. When you swap the pilot take the air screw back in to about a half a turn out to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend I used to ride with in Cali (I'm in NJ now) says just move the needle up one. God damn, I hate changing the needle. Such a pain. It's hard to find dealers around here that stock jets for banshee's so even after I ordered them, I'll make some calls. Maybe I can find someplace that has them and I'll let you know how I made out.

jlaits Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 Just ziptie the spring to the cap and change the clip position then cut it when done. I've been in my carbs so much I just hold it back with my fingers. After awhile it becomes easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you swap the pilot take the air screw back in to about a half a turn out to start. So far you have been dead on. The only thing I did different is my first step was change to a 300 main and "27.5 with air screw 1/2 turn out and it was much better. I was able to rip around my old mans 70 acres on a bike that has been sitting for about 7 years. That being said, it ran great except between gears and coming off idle it would bog. I ran the air screws in the rest of the way (1/2 turn) and it was much better but still bogging. (The best it ran all day. So close) I went up to 30p's and no matter where I put the air screws, no good. So....... I would love to hear your advice on my next step. I was wondering what you would think about going back to 27.5's keeping the 300's and moving the needle up 1? Either way, I'll be doing whatever you recommend. Thanks for the help. You have saved me so much time already. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe it or not, I have been in mine so much also but it wasn't till last week that I thought to zip tie the spring. Much better but still a pain.
