i traded for this banshee a few weeks ago its a 2001 model looks to be stock it has the stock pipes on it i do know that the guy said it run great and that it had sit for a while and atmost needed the carbs cleaned when i got it home i checked the fire and it wasnt firing and i just quit fooling with it and sold it to a guy cheap he got it firing by cutting the wires to some kinda fuel emergency cut off switch or something like that was what he called it it was two wires that went in to the thumb throttle on the right side handle bars so when he got it firing he cleaned the carbs and said it would run but it was rough he said he took the mag cover off and said there was water in it he sanded the mag just to clean it up and it helped the way it ran now to where im at on it.... the guy ended up not being able to pay for it and brung it back to me it starts extreamly easy and idles just great as far as its peformance its really lacking power its weird though because it is real sluggish when it takes off , ya kinda have to feather the clutch and throttle to get it going then when your rolling you can bring it to the power band in 1st gear and just braaap it and the front wheels will leave the ground but it dont act like it has enough power to keep the wheels off the ground just like it has full power right it the braap but thats it it sounds like its making all kinds of power but it just aint at all it just hasnt got that drag you off the seat power that banshees have it sounds good allthough the left side exhaust has a lil stronger sound than the right side exhaust and actually it has about as much power as just one side of the engine would probally make hope this isnt to confusing i guess what im saying if somebody had never rode a banshee they would probally think theres nothing wrong with the bike but i have rode banshees and this one is weak it runs about half as good as it should anybody know where i should start at thank you so much for your help oh yeah and one more thing when in neutral and when you rev it up it aint got that fast braaaping throttle responce it kinda starts a lil sluggish when you first rev it but once its in the band range it revs right i know it has problems just dont know where to start

i have a 2002 stock banshee im haveing carb issues but thats a whole othe problem i bought me some klotz super with th 20% castor oil what ratio do i need to mix at thanks

ok ive got a 2002 banshee just to let ya know a lil about it the engine is supposed to be stock inside it has th t5 toomy pipes it has a white brothers boost bottle and a kand n air filter its my first banshee and ive only had it a week i traded my grizzly for it when i went to try it out it started with two kicks and run great and its one bad machine just a blast to ride when i got it home there was gas in the bed of my truck and the banshee would not start i shut the gas off and let it sit over night went out next morning and it wouldnt start still so i went and got 2 new spark plugs and put in it and it still wouldnt start i messed with it forever and finally sprayed just a hint of starting fluid in the cylinders and it started right up i figured it was just flooded from the night before and was so loaded up that it couldnt burn the gas just figured my problems were over, WRONG!! once i start it with the starting fluid it runs great and i mean absolutly perfect but if you shut it off and let it sit more than 30 minutes give or take it will not start back if you dont wait a whole lot longer than 30 minutes give or take when you go out to start it it will almost try to hit the first kick and after that if your gonna start it your gonna have to use the starting fluid i have noticed that the plugs are wet when i take them out and also even if i shut the gas off and let the bike run out of gas it still wont start up if i dont get back on it with en like i said before 30 minutes give or take im a pretty decent mechanic but its got me puzzled and what has me puzzled is with me letingit run out of gas and turning the gas off it still acts lik eits flooding any way just hope you guys can help me out thanks in advance josh
