yosi

ill give them a go this weekend. thanks

can i ask if you have solved the problem or not and what you have done. because i am having the same issue with my bike having a high idle. but once start to ride around it is okay untill getting to a complete stop and it rises again. thanks

well i called the shop again and told him the story, and as i thought it was the worng ball so i ordered a new one. get it in 2 days so should be good after that. Like everyone is saying the clutch did just about nothing without the ball thanks everyone

hey i just came back from the yamaha shop and they gave me a ball bearing but im pretty sure they gave me the wonrg one becuase it seems to be too small. it is only 4mm long. can someone please tell me whether this is the right ball or not thanks

mannnn thankyou haha. there is no ball there :S thats what u get for buying a cheap banshee i guess. if i install the ball will the clutch disengage properly because atm it isnt disengaging very well?

hi everyone this is probs a stupid question but i cant align the clutch push lever with the protuberance on the crankcase? i followed the manual and how it tells you to move the push lever towords the front and then turn the adjuster screw until both the lever and arow on the crankcase are aligned. but my lever wont reach the arrow on the crankcase becasue the adjuster is screwed all the way in? i think i might need new springs and fibers? but i want to check with people who know more than me about this. thankyou everyone in advance

Righto, i have a washer that i was planning on putting in the carb. Its not the stock brass one but its another zinc washer i had lying around. Would this be ok to use given that it provides the exact same spacing as the original?

Thanks alot for your help rdz

thanks larry. im pretty certain that there was no washer there when i open it up, but ill have a good look around just in case. As for the washer itself ive got one which is almost exactly the same size as the stock brass one, BUT its not brass-instead zinc. would this be alright to use instead of getting another stock one becasue unfortunately i dont have anybody with another basnhee, and i dont want to pay $25 AUS dollars to order another washer from the yamaha dealer.

would it be fine to put any washer that fits and is the same size as the orgiginal? Or does it have to be a brass washer?

My new jets are also 310 mains and 27.5 pilots. are these good considering my set up? -No air box lid -K&N air filter with outerwair -just above sea level -18-35 degrees celcious riding temp - fmf gold series pipes with silencers -32-1 fuel mix

hey everyone, i was just installing my main jets and i noticed that in one carb there was a brass washer where the main jet screws in and in the other carb this washer wasnt there. Is this normal? or do i have to buy another one? Is there any problem with running the washer in one carb but no washer in the other, or can i run no washers at all. Thanks

Ok so i just got my pilots and mains, and when i was installing them i noticed that where the main jets screw in there was a brass washer in one carby, but in the other carby there was no washer. Is this normal?? Am i able to install the jets with no washers, or do i need to get another washer....if so must it be the same factory one. Or can i just use the one washer in one carby and no washer in the other carby.....does this affect performance? Again sorry for all the questions

Righto, went shop today to get my jets, didint have any is stock, so i ordered some 27.5 pilots and 310 mains. Should hopefully get them in 3 days and get bike running.

yes i was thinking the same. but how big should i go on my pilots because if heard quite a few people run 30/32.5. would that be too big? Also for the mains i might try 300's or 310's. Thanks for the advice guys

Ok so ive found some time to pull out the carbys and clean them and check reeds jets etc. im currently putting back together the second carb. So i now know that im running 340 main jets........and the stock 25 pilot jets. Is this jetting good for my bike ( running fmf pipe and silencers, open air box... no lid, and K&N air filter with outer ware). Im also at sea level, and will be running the bike between 10-35 degrees celcius. Checked reeds, they are not stock but carbon reeds, not sure what brand, but they are in the stock reed cages. No cracks or nothing, look new. I will get it started tommorow and post to say whether it started or not. Thanks again for everyone that helped me, much appreciated, just tyring to learn here.

righto will get everything checked this coming weekend. As for the leak where they attach to the cyclinders, will that cause a lower compression reading?

anyone??

anyone??

Is it the factory yamaha manual, or the clymers. thanks

Hey Ok so i havnet found the time to take off and clean the carby's and check the reeds but Ive had a quick look at the bike and i noticed that the pilot air screws were scewed out way too far. On the left carby it was screwed out 4 1/4 turns, and on the right one it was around 5 turns out. So i changed them to be 1 1/2 turns out. But still it wont start. I also noticed that where the exhaust attaches to the engine, there seems to be a little air which is leaking out form the seal. Is a gasket supposed to be there, its kind of hard to see whether there is one or not. The exhaust springs are also quite loose, might need to get some new ones. (Will this leaking cause the compression to become less, for the fact the air is escaping from the cylinders??) Thanks

Hey thanks for the info. Is this manual as good as the clymers or have similar detailed explanations?
