Thanks for your advice mate. Will try and get pilots today. And hopefully fine tuned in the weekend. TORS has been removed and i have a downloaded version on my phone of the clymers manual although ive been you tubing how to vids and they have helped out alot.

Heya guys. Been busy th last couple days. Finally got around to pulling carbs off and cleaning them. pilot jets were blocked, so much i cudnt see daylight thru them.. currently running a 260 main and 25 pilot.? with slide needle on middle clip.? Float heights were 21mm Have air screws currently at 1.5 turns out frm seated.? Does this sound right. Cheers.. Im from new zealand and there arent many shops over here that are familiar with banshees.. Starts a little bit easier than before thats for sure. But could be better..

Ok cheers. Will pull carbs apart and clean them up, hopefully that fixes my problem..elevation is 2000ft above sea level and avrg temp is 16°c(61°F). It still has the stock filter and box with lid on.

It has fmf gold series expansion chambers and toomey pipes and a boost bottle.. everthing else is stock from what i believe.. had been sitting for awile before i got it. Got the tank cleaned out and changed needle and floats. Thinking maybe a pilot could be blocked up.?

Hey all, i have recently got my hands on a 98 banshee and am having trouble getting it started when its cold. I have to kick it 50 odd times before i can get it to crank up. When it does finally crank up, she idles fine and goes hard when you want her to. I let it sit for a half hour and it will crank up on the 2nd kick. Left it for an hour and had to kick more than 10 times, gave up in the end.Have so far changed plugs and plug caps, cut abit off the leads before screwing new caps on cleaned air filter, compression is 119 on the right and 120 on the left side. kicked untill needle stoped moving, before you ask, choke tube is on and bowls r on the right sides, slides are facing right way. TORS has been deleted but i dont think the side of carbs have been ground down.? Have tried pulling jam nut off and screwing idle screws all the way in and still wont crank up. It has a boost bottle and fattys on it. Im wandering what to do next.?? Any help would be appreciated cheers..

hey guys have noticed a slight knocking noise coming from my trans. the bike rides algood shifts algood idles algood when clutch is in or owt. just wandering if its normal? or something is wrong.. any info on what it could be would be much appreciated..
