I JUST bought a idle screw kit on ebay for 14 bucks, brand new in the package :headbang: They sell em at the local bike shop for 27 bucks. We're putting a twist throttle on my kids blaster this weekend, so I needed an idle screw. My 12 year old boy rides my Banshee, the first quad he ever rode by him self was one of my banshees. He rode a kx60 for 2 summers and now he wants a twist throttle on his Blaster. My kids crazy, he was jumpin' his stock shocked Blaster last weekend, his farthest jump measured 38 feet. His blaster rips :headbang:

You can get it to idle without the kit if you adjust the cables out on top of the carbs. It is just not the proper way to do it cause you wan't have the right amount of freeplay on the throttle and if your cable gets hung on something your bike will run off without you. So yes it will run but not the way it was intended to. I drove without mine idling for a day and it is a pain in the ass.

Your motocross bike won't idle? Who's your builder...fire him. You want your machine to idle..so when you let off the gas (and yes I know you will) it won't stall. I got my idle set so low people think my bike is puppy dog, but when I crack that throttle and beat em all out the gate..I laugh and ask them how my roost tastes. You want a good idleing machine..it's a sign of quality.

I had the twist w/ out the screws (before i knew anything about them) anyway....

Yeah you can get it to idle, but it'll run like crap(at least mine did)....i had no top end

Thanks guy, but i figured it out. just got to give it a little fuel and shee starts right up(but doesn't idle, no big deal). and motulmonsta, ive rode motocross for 5 years and have fixed all my bike not to idle, and no you don't have to let off, you got to hold her wide open and clutch the shit out of it. That is if your fast enough, Im just being sarcastic, don't take it the wrong way. Thanks again
