Really Dumb Question


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

 

I recently picked up an 05 banshee, it has a boost bottle (I think), larger sprocket, toomey pipes, fmf exhaust....some other stuff too I think, not sure.  Thing is crazy fast, scared the absolute crap out of me the first few times I rode it.

 

Well, my question involves the fuel shutoff.  I'm not sure if I'm supposed to follow the arrow on the selector, or the notch.  I don't know if I'm pointing at "ON" or "RESERVE".  I've searched and searched, and apparently I am the sole dumb ass that has this question in all of history.

Thanks, I'm located in southwest Tucson, look forward to having some fun around here.

This is what a stock petcock looks like.

 

Lets use a little deductive reasoning. There are 3 "positions" on the petcock, on/off/reserve. On the backplate behind the knob, reserve is on top, off is on the left, and on is on the bottom. The knob can point to all 3 of these positions, it can't point to the 4th aka the right. So which part do you think you use?
