banone Posted March 29, 2010 Report Posted March 29, 2010 Hey everyone, New to site and Banshees! first love these bikes. I have an issue, I was out riding Saturday everything was workin great. I came down from a 6th gear run to an idle when the bike started to run on only one cylinder? Like I said I am new to all 2-stroke pros and cons. I really need some advice on what the problem may be. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance! Quote

If you are jetted on the ragged edge (on the lean side) then you could smoke a piston doing that for too long. Take out your plugs and look at them, see if they are brown or if they are the same color. You can also look down in the spark plug holes with a light and see if the tops of the pistons look ok.
