'04limited Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 how much difference is there between needles that come in a aftermarket jet kit and the factory needles? i was wondering because i just put a tr6 pipe kit on my wifes shee and used the needle that came in the kit and on my bike i it set up exactly the same except with the factory needles and her bike seems much more responsive???? thanks for any info.

Ting Ting Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 The Aftermarket needle is longer and the stcok needle has 5 slots and a the aftermarket has 6. With it not being responsive you might not have it jetted right yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sredish Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 i'm not a fan of aftermarket needles AT ALL. The stock needle works very well, not sure why they feel you need to change it other than to sell you something. I've seen way more problems in jetting with aftmkt needles over stock needles. I say, go back to the stockers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbooker82 Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 What kind of needle was it. Was it a dynojet kit? I run one in my raptor and it is a really nice kit. Dynojet knows what they are doing! I cant say about the banshee kit though. I never have ran one. I run Keihin PWK carbs and there is 125 different needles that you can buy for them.
