New Banshee


Recommended Posts

Sold the blaster about 2 weeks ago and i've been going to the yamaha dealership a couple times a week with my friends cause they've been buying shit there for there YFZ's and noticed they had a limited shee......well i check with the financing tonight and i'm approved for the loan so as soon as i can get my down payment from my bank i can go pick it up......my buddy with the yfz is going to give me his polished rims and i'm giving him my black rims(i hate black rims) so i can't wait to be rippin again, specially on a banshee

I mixed it 40:1 and it ran alot better tonight........but its ideling high....i know you have to turn the screws on the backs of the carbs but how do you keep both of them in sync to make sure both cylinders are running the same

Just turn them the same amounts... Back when I had TORS I would go 1/2 turn at a time, do both while bike is running of course...If one seems to idle higher then the other, you can adjust them singley (sp?) to sync, then adjust them at the same time to get the right idle speed...hope that helps.

 

Other then that, have fun! and congrats on purchasing the best quad that will ever be made...

Also, pay no attention to the slots in those knobs. They mean nothing. I've had people tell me my carbs were out of sync because those slots didn't look to be in the same position...lol...

A great way to sync your carbs is with a vaccuum guage. I don't have one yet, but I've seen one from Emgo. They fit various sizes of carb bores and you can get them in 2 cylinder configurations.

Basically you are making sure the carbs are allowing in the same volume of air to pass through.

Syncing the carbs really isn't all that hard. :rolleyes: Get yourself a clymers manual, it's a god-send...trust me. It has step by step instructions on syncing the carbs.

 

If you look on the carbs, on the sides there's a little circular window....if you look on the carb slides there's a little bearing on each one. When the carbs are in sync you'll be able to view the little ball bearing in each window...hope that makes sense & helps you out. ;)

synching the carbs is something you will have to get used to, and takes some fine tuning skills

or you could just say f*^k it and get a single carb. no syncing and no bs with all the power the lil gringo needs. ;)
