ree_ree Posted September 30, 2009 Report Posted September 30, 2009 ok here is the deal. i just bought a banshee that has been built before i got ahold of it. i am new to the 2 stroke world so this bike has me stumped now. it has ran just fine every weekend for the last month but last weekend while draging it felt like it just flat lined on me. off the start it was doing fine it took off and right before powerband it felt like it bogged out. i took it up and down the flats a couple times and everyother time it would do the same thing. it wont idle and in order for me to start it i have to be pressing on the gas while kicking it...(before i had the problems too) i am running 110 race gas mix at 32/1. the bike is a 4 mill stroker with cool heads 19cc domes stock carbs bored to 32mm race port and polish and im not sure if it has been bored or not. i pulled the plugs and the were a light brown color with a little carbon build up on them. they were not wet though. i checked the case and the oil lvl was just fine. so my question is with all this said what is wrong with my bike lol. thanks in advance for the replies !

SAVAGE420 Posted September 30, 2009 Report Posted September 30, 2009 Your proly getting lean now that its getting colder out. Whats your jetting at now? Quote
bansheeseat$$ Posted September 30, 2009 Report Posted September 30, 2009 Do a compression check and that will give you an idea of the engines shape. Quote
ree_ree Posted September 30, 2009 Author Report Posted September 30, 2009 i have not had time to pull the jets yet but i will as soon as i can. i am going to start mixing at 40/1 next time i go ride to see if that had anything to do with it. what jet size would you recomend for my set up ? and also i was thinking about going to a 36mm carb. would that help any ? it almost feels like it is not getting any gas. it sounds like it bogs and will just stay there as long as i hold the gas down...not even enough rpm's to shift once i hit that laggy spot Quote
burhead Posted September 30, 2009 Report Posted September 30, 2009 Hve you checked the choke tube between the carbs. Mine came loose once and I had starting issues and when it would start it ran like crap. Quote
ree_ree Posted September 30, 2009 Author Report Posted September 30, 2009 thank you all i will check all of these things asap ! Quote
