can any one tell me what the size of the gas line from the tank to the carb is and what size the over flow lines are ?

Ok thanks for explaining that. you don't really have to cut the threads off to test that tho you can just look at the end of the plug right? Maybe not as accurate as cutting the threads?

What do you think i should be running for main jets ? and again thanks for the tips!! what is plug chop?

ok thanks for the tip i had another question i just bought this bike and its got really low gearing i can barely hit 6 gear its got a 15 tooth sprocket in front and a 39or 40 rear. i have a brand new 13 tooth front sprocket i was thinking about putting that on what do you think? Also i think my jetting is off i have 230 mains and 25 pilots. the bike has DG exhaust,pro design intake with open airbox, tors removed with twist throttle and i know it was rebuild with Wisco pistons cant tell you if its stock bore or been bored out.

yea thats who i bought them from he is sending me another shock so if this one turns out to be junk i will buy your forsure thanks!! what color are they buy the way . Also the may sound like a dumb ? but i just bought a bottle of yamalub 2r and it does not have the ratio on back. i run 32.1 and with other oils its 4oz to one gallon is that right?

Whats up guys, I bought a pair of used shocks on ebay and they turned out to leak so i sent them back and the seller sent different ones so i installed them on the bike. i took the bike to the shop to have the clutch worked on i get it back and take it for a spin what do you know the second pair of shocks are blown the right shock compresses then gets stuck (does not rebound) i cant believe this!!! to make matters worse i ordered a dg fatty grab bar from amazon and it turns out that they didnt weld the mounting tabs evenly so now i have a grab bar that is cockeyed!! must be a knock off. what luck i have. i thought you guys would get a kick out of that so i thought i would tell you. DOES ANY ONE HAVE A PAIR OF SHOCKS THAT ARE IN (GOOD) NONE LEAKING OR BENT OR BLOWN THAT THEY WANT TO SELL!!!

what should these adjuster be at ? it doesn't say in the book and what kinda oil do you recommend?

well i took the clutch springs off and i can tell you that the push rod and ball are not welded so it must be that its just not bled well enough iam going to have to take it in cause i dont have the right toold to bleed it properly!!

i should with a tool on the case lever

I am going to do that tomorrow morning i just remember that i did drive it away from the spot my buddy crashed it so i know it wasnt from the crash! which is good new i thinkg you may be right about the plates iam going to take it about tomorrow. the manuall says i need a speacial tool to put the clutch back together do i need this? or is there a trick i can do?

THE CLUTCH WORKS I JUST CANT GET IT TO RELEASE!!! Its like riding with out using a clutch i have take the clutch cover off and when i pull the case lever nothing happens what can this be?? please dont tell me the case has to be split? i dont see how the wreck could have dont this but you never know heres a pic with the cover off. Yes i do have a manual. By the way i do have pictures but when i click the attachment button it loads for while and then says there was no file selected, how do i post a pic?

The only thing i have taken apart is the cable off of the clutch lever. i have not yet taken the crank case off. but i can move the case lever all the way like its not hooked up. the story behind this is that my friend crashed it and i just put it put it back together. i replaced the shocks a arm tie rod and ends and just cleaned it up . when i went to ride it is when i noticed that it wont release . so lets say i welded the ball and rod is that something i can fix my self???? also to answer locos question yes i can move it by hand, iam not sure what you mean by play but no there's no side to side play or anything like that iam going to take the cover off today and see what i can see what should i be looking for i should be able to so if its release with the lever right ? please help guys i dont want to pay a shop to fix it i would rather learn and do it my self!!

i have a hydraulic clutch just so you know. i disconnected the cable . and when i push the lever on the case it doesn't seem to do anything like its not hooked up in the case. could some thing be broke inside the case. Its like riding with out a clutch . it just doesn't release what could this be please help i would rather do it my self than have to spend the money to take it in !!!???

OK guys Ill start by telling you the story, i just bought this banshee from a buddy and my other buddy crashed it. So while i was waiting for the shocks and other parts that he broke i took it apart and cleaned every thing. Well i put everything back together and the clutch wont disengage. by the way i have a hydrauic clutch which has been bled. It only pulls a lil bit and then stops even when i push with a wrench it wont release any further. any thoughts please?

Interested in the rims and tires what do the tires look like and are the rims bent at all any pics?

OK guys first off i want to say thanks for every ones help i have found what it was the pilot/low speed jet was clogged again so i cleaned it and put new gaskets on intakes and now it seems to run perfect! thanks again

FIRST of all BOB this is the first link i asked about that you guys said was junk which i agree price is to good to be true. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-BLASTER-YFZ450-YFZ-450-350-BANSHEE-SHOCKS-/250857873100?pt=Motors_ATV_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a684b5ecc this is the second link that i asked about! i was wondering if they will fit on a 96 the seller says they are for 98 and up heres that link http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ATV-Front-Shock-Absorber-Yamaha-Banshee-1998-2006-/200631908768?pt=Motors_ATV_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2eb697f9a0 those are two diffrent links take a look and let me know thanks!!!

I cleaned the carbs already i can check the bowls iam pretty sure the right bowl is on the right carb as i did them one at a time but ill check. it has twist throttle tores removed dg exhaust and stock carbs and reeds iam not sure what size jets are in it but i can check . if it was the jets then the right side would run leans and die out after a lil bit like the left you would think. could it be my reeds possibly? Also a lil peice of information when i put the carbs back on the bike i accidentally put the slides in the wrong carbs i know dumb hey, anyways the right cylinder was the one running weird if that helps and i did switch the carb slides back to normal and synced them as best i could as i did it by hand! any help ill check the carb bowls and get back to you
