dgk30 Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 So I just picked up a banshee and I went to rebuild the carbs and install the tors delete, all that good stuff and I realized that it was a royal pain to try and get the carbs back on (stock air box). This is when I remembered the previous owner put reed spacers on. Is there any reason I should keep them? I would really like to make it easier to do carb work. I could get pods but that's extra money since I already have a decent filter plus I would have to rejet. Bike has stock carbs and boysen rad valves. To me I see no benefit of keeping them, just looking for some assurance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 No need. Some guys used to run them to get bigger carbs to clear the shift arm, but that was before there were good manifolds all over the place like now. But they are definitely un nessacary for your stock carbs . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry's Shee Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Even without spacers it's a PIA. I ditched them and boost bottle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camatv Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 no reason for spacers unless its a girls bike and you want the pipe hit more mild. even then timing does more to control power than the tarded spacers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piediddy Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 It was always said they would give you more topend. Just a useless product for someone to make $ on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
