SheezFast02 Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 I need your help, BHQ'rs. I'm finally back on my Banshee after taking a break from this moneypit. I'm in need of some help with regards to my PWK 28's. I'm a little rich down low, as I have a bog up until I reach the powerband, where it clears up and hits pretty hard. I'm running 50 pilots, and I know 48's will get me close if not perfect. The mixture screws are out past 2 turns, so clearly it's a rich pilot. I think part of my problem is also the needles I'm running. They are "NAPE" needles, which IIRC are a factory KX85 setup. Can someone point me to the best needle for my setup? I've seen people use JJH, CEL, and N68A needles in Banshees and I don't know which one to go with. I believe the rebuild kit comes with the JJH needle if purchased from FAST. If I order the KX85 kit, I can get it through Royal Distributing and have it in one day.. But what years did the KX run this carb? I'd appreciate any help to get me on the right track My current setup: -Stock internals -FMF Fattys w/ PC2's -Dual PWK 28's -Fro-flow plate w/ K&N -No lid -Boyesen Rad-Valve -Elevation approximately 1100' -40:1 on 91 with Amsoil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 We run the DGH needle in our big motors. I am not sure if they're compatible with the 28PWK or not. You may look into that. In nearly every PWK carb set up I have used, regardless of motor size, we end up at 160-162 main and 45-48 pilot. You can also get carb parts from BansheeHQ sponsor PJ Motorsports.

SheezFast02 Posted June 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 Thanks, loco. I'm current running a 155 main, which seems to be doing the trick, but maybe I'll go up one more size. I'll grab some pilots going from 48 down to 45 and see where that gets me. This bike is running awesome, aside from the bottom end bog.

trickedcarbine Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Try a CGL needle or a DGL/DGH needle to get the transition smoothed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleeper06 Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 N68a needle will be the one your looking for those carbs the Cgl and dgh will not fit properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
