Gikki44 Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 Heres the problem. Its pulling great from idle till about mid to 3/4. The power just all of a sudden stops. Not pulling the way it should be at all.. heres the mods: Slip on pipes, boysen reeds, 27.5 pilots and 280 mains. I've tried the stock pilots and stock mains and everything in between. Pretty much everything else is stock. Im runnin 40:1 and i've tried 32:1. The carbs have been rebuilt and cleaned a few times and ive found nothing wrong. Floats are perfect. Pick up coil is set right and i just put a new stock coil on. It kinda feels as if timing would be off but its the stock plate. i was thinking about trying and aftermarket and adding a couple degrees and see if theres a change. any other thoughts. Its def aggravating the shit outta me. And i actually bought it this way. It just def does not have the pull of a banshee at all. Also the compression is 125 on the left cylinder and 110 on the right. I know its low on the right but that still shouldnt affect it the way its acting.

Larry's Shee Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 What kind of head pipes do you have? By slip-ons you mean silencers? What kind of air filter set-up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#1JUANstunna Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 You need to install a pink powerband. The color is out of wack! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwiser Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 did you do a leakdown test? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastbanshee8 Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 Have you tried to replace the spark plug boots? Is the stator a stock one, or is it a Ricky Stator POS? Your compression shouldn't be off that much between cylinders, so it looks like it's time for a new top end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gikki44 Posted June 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 Yes I did a leaksown. Holds 6-7 psi all day. Def not the prob. Bike fires on the first or second kick. Stock stator and it ohms perfect. New plugs, and just put new NGk plug boots. I have also tried new stock plug boots as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gikki44 Posted June 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 Sorry. I forgot to add it does have a k&n filter setup. I've tried with the lid on and off and no change. With little adjustments I can notice slight differences but nothing drastic enough to gain any power where it should Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camatv Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 (edited) DO YOU HAVE STOCK HEAD PIPES AND SOME WACKO SILENCERS OR WHAT are the slides opening all the way try 300 mains. Edited June 19, 2011 by camatv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure of your elevation, but it sounds lean on the main Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gikki44 Posted June 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 I was thinkin it feels lean too but for what mods I have I would think 280 should be good. And yes they are stock head pipes with fmf slip ons and I'm around 1100 feet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#1JUANstunna Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 Have you pulled the plugs to see what color they are? I was running FMF fattys, K&N, no lid, vf2, noss head, stock carbs at the same elevation with 280s, and 27.5s with tan plugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gikki44 Posted June 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 No I haven't yet. I guess that's gonna be my next option. But I'll throw in some 300's and see if it gets any better. I'm thinkin about throwin in the stock reeds too and see if there's any change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinkin about throwin in the stock reeds too and see if there's any change. I would do a plug chop at WOT. You are probably either too fat on the mains or too lean. Or go up on the mains like two sizes and see if it gets better or worse. Better to be a little rich than too lean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerzy609 Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 comp. difference between the two cylinders is way to much and the one cyl is low.Time for a rebuild!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastbanshee8 Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 The simple way to check for too lean, or too rich, is to pull out the choke, when riding, and see if it gets better, or worse. If it gets better, you are lean, and if worse, you are rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
