Righto... Update Idle is sorted pilots are about 1 turn out. anymore than that made it bog down on takeoff. Power is good apart from just before the powerband if i lift off and let it sit below in 5th it will really struggle to pull into the band but race through the revs and its fine if not slightly hesistant especially in the higher gears. But the biggest problem is it still will only start with a couple of squirts of fuel directly into the cylinder. I have searched on here loads and have tried almost all the suggestions. The Choke tube is in place and i only stripped the carbs down individually compression is 110psi and when its warm it fires first time like it did before the k&N arrived! My plugs are dark brown on the tips and it still hates the choke! Now this might be my problem but i am sure yu will tell me. The choke was stiff as .... before, so when i stripped the carbs down i lightly greased the choke assembly. could that be it, its the only thing i think i have done apart from change the jets!

Have you been watching me??? I used my pipe grips on them hahahah i will sort it out tomorrow! Thanks again.

Yeah those are the bits i meant i tried that but will do what you said then try again tomorrow!! Thanks for all your advice! Big Help Should i drop the idle if it still seems a bit high??

No I dont have that thing, havent seen it for sale over here but was just going to modify the stock airbox lid so it still sealed and had a big hole in the lid. would that be ok? Ok i will do on the airscrews have already done a 1/2 turn in but is still idling really high with the choke in and really rough and low with the choke out like it almost doesnt need it even when starting from cold. Thanks for the help, its reassuring being able to check with people who know what they are doing!! Is there any tip for getting the cable lock out of the throttle slides? Clymers just says remove it, but doesnt seem to want to budge! Thanks again

Hi I have done a few searches but as everyone has more mods than me i struggled to find much that was specific. I am at sea level in the UK running 32:1 with a stock 2004 banshee with a K&N with a pre charger in the standard box with the lid off. I have changed the plugs, and changed the jets to 240's. It runs not bad but i am worried its a bit lean on the power band its good and low done pull is much more responsive. Bad news idle is really high and and once it revs up it takes a bit for the revs to fall back down. It also hesitates slightly in the mid-range before the power band. I guess i need to move the needle clip a position or two? Sorry to ask a qustion that is asked all the time but i am new to all this and really dont want to break my shee. Thanks

Hi New to the site though have been trawling through searching for help since i got my shee about 6 weeks ago. Tis damn fun and this place has been a massive help and i went a bought a Clymers as everyone was speaking about it! Managed to strip down my carbs last weekend which was brilliant and went without problems. My only question after having read loads about tors removal is: Where can you buy the eliminator kits in the UK? I have searched SHE-BAY and couldnt find anything and a quick search of schminternet didnt give much help either. CHeers
