Gas Lever "ON" "OFF" "RES"


night

Recommended Posts

i usually leave mine on if im going to be riding it within a week or so. if its going to be longer than a week i turn it to off and run it out of gas, then pull the choke and run it untill it stalls again.

 

i figure the banshee carsb are finicky about old fuel, deposits, etc, so i dont want fuel sitting in the carbs making varnish and deposits.

If your storing it for a long period of time usually you turn it off.. unless theres no gas in it.:) As for me and my cousin we sometimes had to shut our gas off everytime we turn off the motor. Otherwise it would leak like a bitch...haha

I turn my off after every time im done riding it. It's just a habit of mine :thumb:

 

 

Same here. I've always just figured that if Shee was to spring a leak without me knowing about it, or even a chance of gas hitting hot pipes/motor the fire would be more controlable with the gas off. No sense in feeding a motor thats not running. I think some ppl don't do it just b/c they're too fn' lazy. :shoothead:

If your not using it, I would just turn it off, better safe then sorry you know. On my bike if you don't turn it off it pisses all over the place if you lean it too far. By the way dude, you really need to cut down that long ass sig, it makes scrolling soo much harder.

I drain all the gas out of mine as soon as I turn the key off. And fill it back up when i go to start it again. I siphen it out with a coffee stir. I sometimes run diesel fuel when I need the added torque for trail riding.

 

 

Ditto...same here. Although...sometimes I'll use Kerosene instead for the Winter, it heats you better for those cold winter nights (which, I'm sure night is accustomed to.)

 

To be honest, night...I didn't think it was possible to find anyone more ignorant than you.

However, after seeing the advice given to you by your friends...I see ignorace has strength in numbers by your part of town....

 

:banghead:

Thanks for the quick responses, however, my friends told me to keep it on "ON".

 

"OFF" is for emergencies.

Please, expound further.

 

Just quoting him...I questioned it too?

 

I can explain off and emergencies...

 

If your daddy would've known how you'd turn out... He'd have gotten "Off" mama cause it would've been an emergency not to have had you....
