Depending on your elevation your mains should be around 320 and you should have a 27.5 pilot in it with the needle clip in the third notch down. Quote

BUILDER Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 ok this is my first banshee i have no idea what your talking about elevation? i live in yukon oklahoma if that helps if im wrong about that i feel stupid...lol and what is mains...on the carb? Ok if the bike is boging a little off idle it is probably jetted a little fat. Your mains are the main jets in the carbs and they are right in the middle of the carbs if you take the bowls off the bottoms of the carbs. Your evevation i was just asking what elevation Yukon is at because that makes a differance on what jets you run. Dont feel stupid everyone had to start somewere my friend. I would suggest dropping the needles one notch and see if it helps out on the bogging issue. Take the tops off the carbs and puul the springs out and then you will see how to get the needles out of the slides and then take that little tiny clip off (be careful not to loose it) and then raise it one notch and put them back in and see if it runs better.
