bacons-banshee

Yeah, My apologies. I did bypass the KEY SWITCH lol and now everything is good.. and after I got the 2003 running right I started messing with the 1994. it has vforce 2 reeds and the inner reeds were cracked, very simple fix. Thank you all again, this is my first successful forum I have posted on.

Either the ignition or the wiring to the ignition was malfunctioning, I cut and tied the wires directly, one kick and the banshee fired right up

After checking all the wiring and testing the stator ( tested good ) I bypassed the ignition and determined that was the problem. Atleast it was something easy to fix. Thanks guys

Yeah I'm thinking the stator possibly. Um thing to get to testing this afternoon when I get off work. Damn day job always gettin in the way

The tors and all components was previously removed. I will remove the ignition this afternoon and post results of the ohms testing also

Yes there is still a key switch, should I jump the wires and try spark with the switch eliminated?

Yeah I have an ohm meter, I was trying to look up how to start testing stuff but not very much direction so far

yes, I swapped carbs with the 1994 and now I have no spark, makes no sense but thats all I did. I believe it was just a coincidence and something else is now wrong with it

Coil wires were checked, also checked the pickup gap and it was set way out so I fixed that and cleaned the connections on the flywheel but still no spark. wondering if there is a way to check the pickup

Yeah, the crossover tube is there, the slides are in the right carbs ( I know because I put them in the wrong carbs and they were completely closed lol.

I used a diagram and did the best I could possibly do restoring it back to original. After doing all the wiring I rode the atv for over a week before taking the carbs off to try them on the 1994 banshee. I have a toggle on off for the headlights and a momentary for the kill switch which I currently have disconnected

Freshly Mixed fuel, Tors was deleted when I got it and I had to clean up a lot of wires that they didnt know what to do with, Air filters are clean K&N filters with outter filters also, I have tried just the filters and no filters and still no start.

I have a 2003 banshee that I picked up 3 weeks ago. It didnt run when I got it but after simply cleaning the carbs it was running great. Yesterday I acquired another banshee, this one being a 1994 fully built bike. It also would not start so I swapped my carbs from the 2003 to the 1994 and still no start so swapped them back and now the 2003 will not start (seems like it has no spark at all with brand new NGK br8es plugs. I check the pickup gap and it was way off so I gapped it to .015 as I read that is the recommendation and still no spark. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Both bikes will pull start and run for about 2-3 seconds before the stall out.
