It shouldnt be rich with those setting but we dont know what needle you have. Take some time and go over your electrical and check those reeds out. They directly effect response at initial theottle opening

Reeds are good . they are seated good no cracks . electrical is solid . got good blue spark . I checked harness out all good . it's the black spark plugs that is killing me . They look rich . and the bogg getting worse when it warms up seems everything symptomatic of a rich running pilot circuit .

New plugs didnt help?

Old fuel?

Try turning your air screws out to 2.5 and see if it helps?

Yes New plugs do help but quickly get black , fuel is fresh . I will try the airscrew ajustment . if it improves do you think drop a pilot jet size and bring airscrew back to 1 1/2 turns out.

He ment smaller pilots ^

and leaner needle

Find out what needle you have.

Also clean your air filters if its been a while.

Banshee#527 ..I live on long island . No good spots to ride here anymore . unless you want to spend your day running from cops . most of the local pay to ride tracks suck and don't like people with banshee believe it or not . I ride mostly in upstate ny I have 70 acres to ride on .

Where upstate? I live in Putnam County just north of Westchester. My family has 47 acres upstate in Chenango county, Sherburne I believe, but they are looking to sell.

ok so,  I just put 45 pilot jet in and idle screw  at 1 1/2 , and moved needle clip to the 3rd position . took It out for a quick ride and seemed to be more responsive low end , pulled the plugs and they are much lighter in color ( white with a little brownish color ) . I thnk I'm close with some minor airscrew adjustments needed ,I will have a better idea  when I get a chance to ride it for more time hopefully its just aircrew adjustments from here on out .
