I want to rip the P Brake off my Shee too, anyone got really good instructions?

Shit now my head hurts...

I bought a chemically resistant squirt bottle, found it at the local hardware store, and filled it with the same premix I dump in my tank. Take out the plugs and squirt a really little bit into the cylinders, put the plugs back in and kick it over.

Since they were your spare, were they ever installed? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Miss riding season? The builders have that bad of a turnover? Instead of cutting the head could I just get a cool head and swap domes? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What would +4 timing and port work do to compression? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What does the head work include? What kinda gains would I see from that? I really want to stay away from adjusting timing, is that foolish of me? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I mostly ride open trails/dirt roads. No dunes or anything. I would like to keep the budget around a grand 1500 max

Long story short banshee lost compression back in fall. Planning on waiting for the weather to get warmer (Minnesota winters are a bitch) to start wrenching on it. Thinking about all the possible options for mods brings rise to multiple questions. Banshee is completely stock keep in mind. First for the top end. I have been considering either bringing my cylinders into a local place close to home, or sending them off to a place like Herr Jugs. Is porting going to be very effective with such a stock motor? Should I just look at a clean up bore? Like mentioned earlier its completely stock. As for bolt-ons I was thinking pipes and silencers (FMF Gnarlys), TORS removal, Vforce V4s, KnN pods and possibly cool head. Should I add or leave things out? Any things that wouldn't work well with the others? Things to take into consideration?

Thanks a bunch man ^^^^ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So advancing the timing does or does not play into what size domes are required?

Will advancing the timing affect the compression?

Bringing this post back from the dead but Carbine what do you mean by that part? Does that refer to changing the timing as in "+4"?

Jetting and carbs are all stock. I'm wondering if something is possibly out of tune with the carbs but I have never changed anything on them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes the choke tube was installed and the compression is at 110psi both sides Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Any ideas? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Worked on the bike again tonight. I took both carbs out and cleaned them, still same kind of problem. Since I am getting impatient with this I decided to call one of my buddies over and we tied it off to his Polaris Sportsman in order to try and roll start it. This is where a new problem arose. I would hold the clutch in 2nd and dump it and the thing would come to life really weak and boggy, to be more detailed i was thinking it was running on one cylinder. Now it would do this up until about 1/2-3/4 throttle and then rev normal with normal power. Where should I go from here? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Rewind to before the carb got worse. Do you think the carb overfilling could have anything to do with it since it would run fine before it decided not to start? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

New plugs did not solve the problem. Just finished up for the day and another problem came up. Before this I had a little leak on the right side carb out of the bottom overflow. No problem as long as I would remember to turn off the gas. Tonight I took both carbs out and cleaned them really well, and looked at the float on the right side carb. Upon reinstall I turned the fuel back on and it leaks worse now. What could I have possibly done? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I will be picking up new br8es's then, hopefully that solves the problem. Thanks for the help Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Plugs are basically brand new NGK br9es. Gaps were .28 when installed. On/Off switch checked and rechecked. And I am getting good spark when the plugs are taken out and put back in the boots, grounded to the frame and kicked over.

I bought my first banshee back in August and it ran great. Completely stock. Recently after I put new plugs in it has had problems flooding but after roll starting it would be fine. Now it won't start for the life of me. I can kick or roll start it all I want but nothing. Still has good compression at 110psi each side. The thing is if I let the bike sit for any time over a couple hours it will start real weak after 3-4 kicks and die suddenly. Then absolutely nothing. Where do I start? Have checked and has good blue consistent spark and plugs are wet after a couple kicks so it's getting gas. I am at a loss. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Are the stock silencers supposed to be packed too?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
