ironcowboy Posted August 5, 2013 Report Posted August 5, 2013 I picked up a 2002 banshee a week ago from a guy who apparently decided he wanted to getto mod the bike. By removing a bunch of parts. Like the seat latch, grab bar and tail light, ect. He also did some idiotic air filter mod with two tiny cone filters. Tryin to upload a picture but its too big. Anyway, it runs pretty good, except for when i'm going WOT for more then a bit, then it starts bogging and slowing down. If i stop for a sec it'll scream off for a while, and then promptly start loosing power, when running WOT in 5th or 6th on a long open sand road. Dont really notice it when on trails in 1st-3rd, unless doing a hill clime, and then its bad. So i figure its either not getting enough air with those gay filters, not enough fuel, or not enough spark. The entire air box system is missing so i'm going to have to do an aftermarket filter setup to replace these little shits, can someone recomend a good kit that replaces everything? Quote
ironcowboy Posted August 5, 2013 Author Report Posted August 5, 2013 (edited) So you think its a lack of fuel issue over a lack of air issue? Edited August 5, 2013 by ironcowboy Quote
ironcowboy Posted August 5, 2013 Author Report Posted August 5, 2013 Ok, thanks. Does anyone have a picture of the stock fuel routing? The idiot has the fuel line running out of the reserve port on the petcock, so i feel like he may have it dicked up. Quote
ironcowboy Posted August 5, 2013 Author Report Posted August 5, 2013 Maybe its from a differint bike then? It says reserve and on, but you have to turn it to reserve to get fuel. Quote
ironcowboy Posted August 5, 2013 Author Report Posted August 5, 2013 Should i just go with the duel feed one then? Or is a stock style aftermarket one fine. Quote
ironcowboy Posted August 5, 2013 Author Report Posted August 5, 2013 ok, thanks. As far as the air filter deal goes, i'm riding desert, and i dont trust those dinky aftermarket ones the guy had on, i dont even know what they are. Any recomendations on what to do instead? I read something about pods? Quote
hoppedupandcutdown Posted August 5, 2013 Report Posted August 5, 2013 If he ditched the stock box for pods, make sure you have bigger main jets. You could be starving for fuel on the top end for sure,or melt it down. Quote

ironcowboy Posted August 5, 2013 Author Report Posted August 5, 2013 i thought i posted, but k+n pods with outerwears will be fine. Should i go with the 2nd one down or the 3rd? http://sandtoyzunlimited.com/sandtoyz/newlook/store/store_view.cfm?store_area_id=35&STORE_DEPT_ID=458 If he ditched the stock box for pods, make sure you have bigger main jets. You could be starving for fuel on the top end for sure,or melt it down. Ok, any recomendatons on a jet kit? I'm running at 2,000ft of elevation. Bike has a set of bills pipes on it, but thats it. Is it low on fuel? No, there is only one line coming out of the petcock. Quote
