Michael Jackson Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 most people have their banshees jetted way too rich to begin with i think, i just think that what toomey recommend with their pipes, is alot closer to accurate than what most people are used to running, i always hear people say "my plugs are a perfect chocolate brown color".. they should be nowhere near chocolate brown if that helps at all, its up to you to play with it though, so many factors like airbox setup and filter come into play, i found on mine with t5's, vf3's and a k&n in the box with 8x4" hole cut through both layers of the top it runs best in the warmer weather with 280 mains, stock pilots and toomey needles on the 3rd clip down,(their recommendation of 4th clip is just too dam rich for me) and from 1.5-2 turns out on the air/fuel screws, i ride sea level to about 1000 ft in the warm weather, every bike is gona be different though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animalman294 Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 You just need to put what you think into it and run it. Check the plugs and see if you feel comfortable with that............ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
