Deaven

okay so i bought a banshee awhile back and after a few months of riding i got a rod/ball weld to have fun with. well while tearing down the motor i found the previous owner decided to use a broken piston in the right cyl. (ill post pics and since Ive never bought a new piston i need some help figuring out what size i need. another factor to this equation is the last owner gave me an extra set of jugs that are larger and are ported, i dont know if its a good job so ill post pics of that as well for opinions. the only problem with the second set i can see is some a layer of rust can it be removed safely?

aw man... oh well gottad do do what you gotta do. ill check the idler gear all right! thanks fir the help!

thanks! the spring on mine is broken. will i have to buy a whole new shift shaft or is it repairible?

Hey! I am having a problem with my banshee in the form of it not shifting at all. so i took off my clutch cover my cluth assymbly and my shift shaft. i first noticed that the screw that holds my shift star on was totaly loose and bent at a 45 degree angle! so i will order that screw and washer bu i then saw my Shift shaft has a part on the end of the fork like piece that pivots. there is a spring on there but it is not.. how do i say it... it freely rotates it isnt "springing" any thing so i need any pics of your shiftshafts if possible. Thanks!

if you think you are capable i can send you my stock reeds, and needles. the only other jets i have would make a stock shee run WAy to rich.

uh dude threr are two different spring like thigs per bulb. one for highs one for lows.

no drive from motor. probably the cluth. also bike wont shift stuck in sixth. we were robbed and the insurance is going to pay us so figured i would take it in.

i need to know of any good shops in houston. idealy in the woodlands or tomball area. all help is appreceated

i upped my jetting and adjusted my needles. running just fine. but god is that thing fast! i took it to sixth today and the world was a blur!

lol my e brake was on omg thank you so mucH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the new jetting are 270 mains, needle clip is stock. i was thinking about the e-brake as the possible problem but wasn't sure if that was the cause. however i did notice that when i pull the e-brake nothing happens. it will roll freely...

k so i had the jetting messed with along with my needles and went ahead and got some new plugs but with no improvement any ideas?

ya ive given it to certified mechanic who is a family friend and is going to look at it an get my jettingright but thanks for all the help!

i live in houston so sea level, however idk about exact temperatures but it runs and idles normaly.

sorry for being vauge but i belive 340 jetts are in the carbs

it says main jets 270, main jets 280, main jets 340, fuel needle 304 e-clip, adjusting washer

alright so i bought a 99 banshee 350 today with gold fattys k&n open filters and fmf stage 3 jets. ansl vito's carbon fiber reeds, and ngk plugs. the problem is when accelerating the bike seems to top out too soon. ive seen people able to spin tires by just popping the cluth, yet this thing seems to have the power of a 50cc! i was wondering if anyone has any suggestions? btw i know a good amount about bikes but not alot about jetts and stff so it would be cool to talk to me like ann idiot :biggrin:
