Any chance you have a set of knobbies, front & rear? How much?

Was it recently rebuilt because that sounds like top end going out to me.

1) What type of aftermarket exhaust do you have? - Paul Turner Mids 2) What type of airfilter do you have? - K&N 3

From my experience bogging usually means a rich condition. Definately try air screw first. Just be sure to adjust both carbs the same.

It can certainly be a number of things. I would also check your air screw on the bottom of carb. If turned too far out it will also cut out and die as you described. Should only be 1 1/2 to 2 turns out max. Good luck.

Is that same as my premix?

Any easy way to clean out a crankcase with out splitting case. Need to be sure I dust out any possible sand.

Good read but still unsure. I have weiscos in the one that sucked sand. We shut it down before it had a chance to seize. On my other Shee it is still a stock bore with OEM pistons. Again I am only running milled head. But I am not on eto just cheap out. So looks like I will go with the Weiscos again. Thanks to all fo r quick response.... :biggrin:

I am doing a top end on both my Banshees. Question is: What is difference in pistons? Cast vs. forged? big difference in pricing. Both are stock except for milled head and pipes. The engine did not seize. I sucked sand on one and the other just needs refreshed. Can I reuse the pistons and put on new rings or just go ahead and replace completely. Only do dunes riding. Do not race.

I have had 3 blasters. sounds like you are either way to rich or its your top end. I ran 32:1 and always use 91 octane. I was jetted anywhere from about a 260 -290 main....open air box wK&N filters and preskins.

When I did mine (Milled head also) I used a gasket sealer. Copper spray adhesive for gaskets. Cant remember brand. Then I torqued slowly and made several passes only tightening a little each time until torq reached.

When I had my Warrior the only time it would cut out was when I had a stator issue. Once fixed it ran great. The poping you describe sounds like too lean. Mine did same thing. Stock Pilot is a 42.5...I went to a 50 pilot in mine. Just be sure to reset your fuel screw on the bottom of carb to about 1 1/2 turns and adjust idle as well. Main jet stock is a 145. take it up a couple also. Mine liked it rich. Try a 160 main. If your air box is opened up you could probably go a little higher. Do a plug check to be sure. Also get a manual. It come's in handy.

If you don't mind the maintenance get a Blaster....My boys rode Blasters till age 15 but it was lightly modified. Full milled head and Ct pipe, open air box W K&N.. They rode the Shiat out of it.....other wise the 300 Honda or Yami Warrior..Very dependable.....just my .02 cents..
