My bike is weird

[Mxzdan]

I got a 2001 banshee awith fmf silencers and no air box lid and oil is getting out from the silencers is that normal.

 

i mix 32/1 yamalube

 

Thanks

[01bansheeke]

thats a pretty normal thing. Could be the premix you are using.

[Mxzdan]

And it seems one muffler is smoking a little bit more.

[01bansheeke]

Oil in the exhaust is not an indicatin of bad rings in a two stroke. The oil is burned along with the fuel. Could be very rich jetting. Does it bog off idle??

[Mxzdan]

yes it seem's to bog a little bit when it idle when it's cold

but when it's hot it does not bog so if i would put a set of front pipes I wont have to change my jetting is that right

Welcome to the world of 2-strokes

Does oil spray out, or do you just have a grimey seepage from the silencer? If oil sprays out pretty good, you may have a bad crank seal. It would have nothing to do w/your rings.

[Mxzdan]

it as or do you just have a grimey seepage from the silencer that even if i clean it after each ride it does the same thing

[87sheerips]

yea, my bike smokes more out of the left pipe, i think becasue thats the side i choke to start it. Once its warm, they even out, and i have no problems.

[01bansheeke]

ur fine man..just ride it lol,. if anything from the sounds of things you may be a little rich.

[Mxzdan]

Ok thanks a lot guy's
