Ok ... tested it cold ... and 50psi is what I am getting. So -- if it is that low ... what do I do?? It runs great after it starts -- but has trouble with the starting even the next morning running it for hours the day before. How would I know if I have a bad reed or reeds?? Do you know how far the pilot screws should be out with Duncan High Rev Pipes & a new K&N Filter?

Tested the compression and it seems to land about 50 psi ..... not sure I tested it properly. Do I run it before testing or test it cold? Leave in 1 spark plug or remove both? Any suggestions -- to make sure I do this right. also ---- if 50 psi is my true compression ..... then what??? Thanks for all the help!!

I am having some trouble kick starting my Banshee .... it doesn't start for about 4-10 kicks. I have already cleaned the carbs, changed the spark plugs, cleaned the pilot jets and wondering if the REEDS should be changed? When trying to kick start it -- it almost smells slightly flooded -- but runs great after starting up and on idle. Anyone know how to tell if the reeds or reed values need replacing?? OR any other ideas??? Thanks!
