shelrad1 Posted September 25, 2009 Report Posted September 25, 2009 I have a 91 Banshee that I bought new. Currently I'm running the factory carbs ( 340 mains & 25 pilots )and am thinking about upgrading. Motor has the following upggrades : head milled & re-domed, play porting, trued & welded crank, timing advanced, flywheel lightened, WEISCO Pro light pistons, IMS pro series connecting rods, FMF gold series pipes & silencers,FMF reeds, Pro-flow intake and filter, no airbox lid. What brand and size carb would you guys recommend ? I live in S.E. Kansas, ride fast trails and go to Little Sahara occasionally. Thanks Quote
Toomey Banshee Posted September 27, 2009 Report Posted September 27, 2009 PWK 33's would be a great upgrade. Would let your porting shine. Quote
shelrad1 Posted October 13, 2009 Author Report Posted October 13, 2009 Do you think that Mikuni 34mm tmx's would be overkill ? Quote
shelrad1 Posted October 13, 2009 Author Report Posted October 13, 2009 What about 30 mm OKO's, ? Ive never herd of these. Quote
Sammy Posted October 13, 2009 Report Posted October 13, 2009 Some like the 30 OKO's some don't .I would believe the 33's to be to large on a stock stroke, play ported setup. My choice goes to 28mm PWK's. Hands down great carb for all around use and will be used on my ported hillshoot setup when completed. Quote
papa_smurf49319 Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 what future upgrades do you plan on doing to the bike? Do you plan on different pipes, stroking it, etc? Quote
shelrad1 Posted October 14, 2009 Author Report Posted October 14, 2009 what future upgrades do you plan on doing to the bike? Do you plan on different pipes, stroking it, etc? This is prolly going to be it. Its almost all I want power-wise now. I'm 40 Dont race or anything like that, just ride with family & friends. Thanks Quote
papa_smurf49319 Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 28pwk's, or 30 okos will work just fine, hell stock carbs will work fine, but if ya want some new ones 28pwks would be a good choice, same with the 30 okos. Quote

Thanks hey it dosent matter about age!! as long as ur happy..... my dad runs two 33's on a dune port and they are down jetted..... you never know... you might get a hair up ur ass and want to go bigger on carbs..... i would get a set of 33's downjet them... cause if u wanna go bigger then u can jet the carbs fatter... if u have the 28's and u wanna go bigger ur gunna have to buy bigger carbs... im saying this just from what my dad has been thru. he was in your same shoes.. just tryin to save u a couple hundred bucks Edited October 14, 2009 by sToCk7miLL Quote
Sammy Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 if u have the 28's and u wanna go bigger ur gunna have to buy bigger carbs... Not true at all, 28pwk's will feed a 4 mil trail setup just fine when setup properly. Quote
shelrad1 Posted October 14, 2009 Author Report Posted October 14, 2009 thanks for all the comments, don't know what I'll do yet. I appreciate all the feedback. Quote
qboronyrican Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 i may be selling my 28mm pwk's if your interested....pm me if you are Quote
sToCk7miLL Posted October 15, 2009 Report Posted October 15, 2009 Not true at all, 28pwk's will feed a 4 mil trail setup just fine when setup properly. all im saying is why not get the bigger carbs and down jet them.... because if u want to go bigger then ur set... 28's arent gunna feed a cub if he gets a hair up his ass an wants to go fast.... im just sayin....

shelrad1 Posted October 18, 2009 Author Report Posted October 18, 2009 I know I'm asking lots of questions here - but whith the motor mods I listed above, what size a carb would you recommend if I decided to switch to a single carb setup ? Thanks Quote
