Banshee wont take throttle

[the boris]

Actually, the T.O.R.S. has been removed. So I need to pull the tank and unplug the switch?

Did you remove just the carb switches or the parking brake switch and throttle switch too?

If the box is still plugged it would be wise to remove it, all it does is makes your bike few ounces heavier.

The TORS was already gone when I got the bike. I didnt see any wires coming out of the throttle, but can recheck that. I am assuming the parking brake switch is still there.

Are you talking about the TORS boxes? If so, those are gone.

It's this thing here

Yup, if that was removed than that is not what was giving you the problem.
It's something else.

Not sure now, I will check in the morning for that box.

Then maybe the parking brake thing was just coincidence. Maybe the reason its running so nice now is that I did have a bad leak at the reed valves, since that is the big thing that I worked on today. I also got the cabs synced finally as well.

I would agree, air leak is something that can give you hard time tuning and can kill engine fastest.

Parking brake rev limiter and TORS are 2 separate systems, ALL Banshee came with TORS and only 97 up had the brake rev limiter. The TORS is a go/no go system. Anyway just a FYI.

Good to know, I thought it's all part of one system.

Well...I guess it isnt fixed after all. It sounds really good in the garage though. Sitting in the garage you can gun the throttle and she sounds awesome. The second you put it in gear and start letting the clutch out it just bogs out and sies. It will not pull its own weight (and mine). I thought that maybe the 25 pilot jets were a bit small so I put my 27.5's back in...but that made no difference. Tried different air screw adjustments as well.

So it's got no power at all.

Someone with more experience should chip in because I really can't say what it might be from information you provided. My knowledge is limited when it comes to banshees.

I wish I had the knowledge that a bunch of these members had. Trying to learn mainly because I dont like the idea of being way out in the sand dunes or way up on a mountain and not know anything about how my "ride ticks", if you know what I mean. And yes...it has NO power at all. Sounds awesome sitting still...but I guess that doesnt count for much.
