  1. Hey bud, when you get those bars shipped, send me the tracking info. I'm an impatient fool who obsesses over watching FedEx tracking info.
  2. Now i understand what the tube is for. That must be where the choke draws it's fuel. Awesome. O ring, needle and seat "looked"fine, but they'll get replaced anyway. P. S, the dummy never upped the pilot jets when they put the pipes, filter and cages on. Still 25s.
  3. Are you experiencing performance issues? Have you done a Plug chop?
  4. I had a flooding issue with my stock carbs, so I tore them apart for cleaning, inspection and adjustment. There is a small tube running from the carb body down into the bowl that is missing from my right carb. Can i buy this somewhere, or am i going to have to replace the carb? Thanks. The right one is still pouring gasoline, the left is good. I set the floats at 21.25 mm, without the gasket.
  5. I'm definitely wanting black bars, i don't have a brand preference. I was actually getting ready to order a set this weekend, but I'm content to buy used and save a little. Pm me with a payment arrangement and a pic of the other bars, please.
  6. The other one is a Bushmaster, it doesn't have that shitty red dot on it anymore
  7. I built a wyndham upper, Anderson lower this spring. I can't say anything bad about the Anderson. CMMG internals, the trigger is awesome.
  8. Because everyone should own two?
  9. You lost me. Round house swinger? Even if i can't use the carrier, I'm interested in the nerf bars
  10. Im only home on weekends, and i get impatient waiting on the mail. If i can find someone in my area that keeps banshee stuff I'll get it local. If not, I'll order them. I want to get the next couple sizes bigger, mains, one size above and below my pilots, chop a couple plugs and do some testing. Where ya from, sheester? I might do that
  11. here she is. The kids and i nicknamed her qui (read:whee) the ugly duckling
  12. P.s: that sounded a bit stupid. The difference in elevation is how far I'm willing to go from home, and chance being stranded lol. Not much cell service in my territory.
  13. I'm going to pick up some jets this weekend, if my dealer will sell them individually(and if they keep the banshee pilot jets). I'm riding anywhere from 900-2800 feet, mostly 9-1500 until I get it 100% running right.
  14. I should be more specific. The tusk nerf bars, and will the carrier work in a stock swing arm?
  15. Combination price on the nerf bars and carrier? You can pm if you don't want to post it publicly
  16. I'm stuck at work until Saturday, out of state. Can do then.
  17. You were right, Larry. Fmf recommends a 260/30 with just a snorkel delete. I'm not sure my carbs are original, the caliper shows a few thousandth shy of 28 mms across the bore. They don't appear to be altered, would it be worth the investment to have a machine shop bore them? I don't have a pile of money for this thing, but i can spend a fair amount if I spread it out among existing expenses.
  18. Thanks guys, I was just getting ready to ask this sake question. My stock stuff is still tight, but twelve years old so i know it shouldn't be long until it isn't. I'm not as worried about ground clearance as the op, but track width needs to be kept in control. Is there a certain brand that's screaming ' bang for the buck', or are they mostly of equal quality? I'm not trying to be cheap, but with a wife and kids i have to balance the budget. Thanks again
  19. Thanks Larry. My issue with the pics is they have a 500 kb limit, even if i drop my camera from 8 mp to 2, it's still too big. No tors, I'm missing the cap clamps as well. Hopefully I can find them in a hurry, I'm itching to get her in serviceable condition. The filter adapter is a pro flow, no markings on the filter but I'm certain it's the same.
  20. Thanks for the quick responses. I wanted to post a picture of the ugly duckling, but I'm not seeing an attachment button. Are there a minimum number of posts required for that? I'll be investing in a manual, and the sync tool, thanks for the link. I'll figure it out
  21. Hello banshee HQ. I'm three quarter, a 29 yo married father of two from central Appalachia. I'm not new to riding, just new to the banshee. The trading bug hit me, and I ended up with a rather rough banshee. She barely ran when I got her on Friday, except at wot. Half the bolts were missing from the plastic, and the left spark plug was only threaded halfway in, held in place only by the plug wire. I tightened almost every bolt from the bumper to the swingarm, and turned to the carbs, three of the reed valve bolts were loosened significantly, and the right main jet was lying in the bowl. Anyway, that's all fixed, I need a float needle which will be coming as soon as the shop opens up. I just see some things that don't make sense. First, there's no coolant overflow bottle. There is supposed to be, right? Next, the case vent goes nowhere, just a hose stuffed in front of the fuel tank(which was plugged with dirt). Where should it go? I found another piece of vacuum hose running from front to rear, connected to nothing...wtf? After cleaning the carbs, she runs pretty good but still won't idle without slight pressure on the throttle. It runs rough on the pilot circuit, smooth and fast as hell from quarter throttle onward. I'm going to tinker with the screws this morning, but I honestly think its a carb sync issue. I've rebuilt and tuned carbs from 25 cc weed eaters to 440 dodge engines, but I've never played with a multi carb setup. Any suggestions for a guy with one vacuum gauge? Lol I know, get a double vacuum gauge. One more dummy question: With a full FMF exhaust, snorkel removal, aftermarket filter and vforce 3 reeds, is a 260 main big enough? It runs good at wot, I can't really check my plugs until I get the right carb to stop flooding. With the monstrous oversights in daily maintenance I've seen(the radiator cap wasn't even on tight), I'm not keen to trust the previous owner's jetting decisions. I never thought to check pilot jet size, I will when my carb kits come in. Thanks, and don't beat on me too hard! P.s: I'll post pictures when I find my cell, its dead in my house, somewhere.
