swhitey917 Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 (edited) Ok guys I am pretty sure it is my jetting but i am completly lost when it comes to jetting. My banshee feels really doggy and dosen't feel like the powerband is very strong. My Banshee is pretty much stock and here are the mods Uni Air Filter with Air box lid removed Older FmF gold series pipes Stock carbs with the tors system. Elevation is around 540ft. I run 93 octane fuel and mix yamalube oil at 3 ounces to 1 gallon. What should my jetting be at? If you need anymore information please let me know. If i can't straitin this problem out i am going to sell it. Edited March 30, 2009 by swhitey917 Quote

I am wanting to get it for temps 65 degrees and above. I have not synced my carbs but they dont seem to be out of sync. Quote
swhitey917 Posted March 30, 2009 Author Report Posted March 30, 2009 So does 290 mains, 27.5 pilots and the needle clip on the 2nd knotch from the blunt end. Sound about what i need....anyone else opinion would be great i really am getting annoyed by this and would really like to figure it out. Quote
Paddleboy Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 i think that 310 main 25 pilot and needle in middle clip is more close to what you are looking for however your carbs do need to be synced anytime your touch the caps Quote
swhitey917 Posted March 31, 2009 Author Report Posted March 31, 2009 Where can i order these jets at? Quote

MikeNick Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 Thanks, does anyone now where i can get the jets at for a good price? Local Yamaha dealer or any other dealer should carry jets ..Should only be like $2.50 apiece for main jets..Order from somewhere else your gonna have to add in shipping man.... Quote

Allright, thanks MickNick, i will check them out first. I am still trying to figure out what sizes i need for sure...? i have heard anywhere from 290-310 mains and 25-30 pilots.... My shee seem like she is getting to much fuel because she is a smoker, boggy and running like shit. Quote

R. Rollins Posted April 4, 2009 Report Posted April 4, 2009 If you just plan on doing Banshee carbs yuo can usually find that carb sync tool on e-bay for $35.00 Mine came with the adapters for larger carbs as well. Jeffs Snc tool is the very same one. for $50.00 with the adapters. Quote
