BluBanshee98 Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 I have a 98 Banshee with with a hotrod 4 mill setup, K&T port and polish job, coolhead w/17cc domes, 28 mm PWKs, timing advanced 6 degrees, lightened flywheel, T5 exhaust, and im running 111 octane. I have been battling this problem for some time now. Free reving a 2 stroke, it should rev to the moon. Technically you should be able to blow up a banshee by free reving it. Now mine from 2/3s throttle to full throttle it will surge. I have changed and checked everything. Even swapped the coil off of my wifes bike and still the same thing. Just wondering if all this work with no ignition upgrades could be hurting me or does anyone else have an idea? Any input would be greatly appreciated. I have not been impressed with the way it has ran since I did all the work. The bike will run but I don't think its up to par.

fastbanshee4u Posted July 18, 2005 Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 What set up did you use to allow for the extra stroke. Cut domes,or spacer plate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluBanshee98 Posted July 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 Spacer plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fixitrod Posted July 18, 2005 Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 After all that you will have a lot of jetting to do. Everytime I work on mine it gets a little faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluBanshee98 Posted July 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Yeah I'm still playing with the jetting. I have it about perfect but went to Coral Pink Dunes 2 weekends ago and my right side would foul plugs as quick as I put them in. I checked reeds, compression, swapped carbs, and pulled to exhaust to see if maybe there was some sort of blockage. Nope nothing at all. Well once I got home I pulled the carb boot off and found a few cracks that might have lead to a tiny pinhole and a lean condition when up at operating temp or above average. I haven't had a chance to take it out around here in Vegas to get it good and hot to test it. Hopefully the new carb boot fixes the prob. Otherwise I haven't a clue.
