Basically the spark arrester inside one of my silencers broke so now my shee runs like crap and shoots flames out the exhaust. NOT good. So I need a new set of silencers or if for some reason someone has one. The thing I don't know is if you can use different silencers on different pipes, and if you can, do you have to re-jet? If not, I'm open to all other silencers as well. Thanks!

FTW! Yamaha called me today to inform me that my stator needed replacing, maybe next time I'll be able to do it rather than them. -

I bought the quad from a man who removed the tors. Good idea, I'll check tomorrow. -

Is there any speccific brand or type that's better, or will stock do? -

After following Clymer's steps, I got to the ignition coil test and think failed?? Here's my problem, I have a Digital Multimeter which serves as an ohm meter but I'm no electrition. So, when Clymer's says to set my ohm meter at r x 1, what the hell does that mean? Another thing, I don't even know where the red and black wires connect to the device, there is a com port, omega symbol port, and v port. Here's what I did, I plugged the red wire into the omega thing and the black wire to the com and set the meter on the omega side to this little thing that looks as if it's a radio wave or something. Anywho I put the black wire on the black tab on the ignition coil and the red one on the orange and my meter buzzed! When I connected the black to the tab on the ignition coil and the red to either or the caps, nothing. Took the caps off, had the black wire to the ignition coil tab and red to the spark plug wire with no cap and didn't buzz. This leads me to believe something is going wrong/it's time for a new ignition coil. I could be completely wrong as I obviously have no clue what I'm talking about when it comes to the whole ohm meter thing. Just read it, try to understand, and tell me what you think, thanks. -

Cleaned the carbs again today. Pulled the spark plug off on right side and no spark! Took all the electrical tape off the wires and checked the wires, spliced a few that were spliced together but looked old. Put everything back together and try to start it, still no spark. What do I do!? -

Thank you so much! I wanted to ask for that before but didn't want to ask for too much. This forum gets better and better. -

I just cleaned the carbs today. Fuel is in both bowls. I'll check for spark in a little bit. And can someone please tell me which one is the pilot jet? I asked in my other thread yet no one could come up with an answer. -
Yesterday my best bud and I were riding our shee's all day. I never so much fun on a quad in my life. It was the first time since I bought the shee that I actually got to ride it for a while and get the feel of it. Anyway, when it's time for him to leave we park the shee's near my house. Go inside, eat dinner, decide we'll do two or three more laps. So he pushes his down the hill and drops it into gear and it starts up and he starts rippin. I push mine down the hill, drop it into gear and it just bogs. We try to get it started like 4-6 more times and no go so we call it quits for the day. Today, I go to the Yamaha dealer and pick up some coolant, carb cleaner, K and N cleaner, etc. Take off the carbs, clean them up, top off the coolant, and clean the filters. Put everything back together, push it down the driveway, drop it into gear starts right up. I sit there for 5 seconds and rev it up a little but. Put it in first go to ride down the rest of my driveway and right before it hits the powerband in first, it bogs and turns off. Tried starting it and it just bogs like before. I really don't want to take it to the Yamaha place becasue chances are I won't get it there until Thursday at earliest and it won't get done for the atv party I'm going to next Monday. So what do you guys think? What should I try to do? Open to suggestions for sure. Pretty aggrivated right now. Please help me. Sorry for the semi-long post/rant.

Kick Start and Idle Problems
thelmuffinman replied to thelmuffinman's topic in Banshee Repairs and Mods
NO! Read the post. I bought a Banshee and TORS kit is already installed. I don't know if the guy who installed the TORS kit put on the idle screws or not. -

Kick Start and Idle Problems
thelmuffinman replied to thelmuffinman's topic in Banshee Repairs and Mods
So I have to install idle screws. Makes sense why it doesn't idle. What does the ratio depend on? And anyone have any suggestions on the kickstarting? -
Kick Start and Idle Problems
thelmuffinman replied to thelmuffinman's topic in Banshee Repairs and Mods
and I was told to run it at a 20:1 ratio. Judging on the recent thread bashing the fag who made the write-up about oil in the General section, 20:1 isn't right. What all does the ratio depend on? -
Funally got my shee. It's got Stainlees steel procircuit pipes and silencer, jet kit, boyseen power reeds, reed spacer, boost bottle, aftermarket cdi box, sprockets, K&N pod filters, extra adjustable stator with timing advance, twist throtle, and performance clutch. It also has a TORS eliminator kit. My questions: How do you adjust the idle on this thing, it won't idle for the life of me. Second, I can only get it started by pushing it a little then dropping it into 1st. No matter how much I kick it won't start. So aside from those two things, I fuckin love my new shee! Help me out if you can. Thanks.
