Recomended Mains

[04BansheeLE]

I was wondering what you guys recommend for main on a banshee w/ full fatty system and the air box snorkel off......Right now I am at a 240 but it seems to run perfect.....I am at about 700 feet.......Any direction would help! Thanks

Id say anywheres from a 300 down to a 280 main with an aftermarket

air filter and the lid on.

You should be lean at 240. FMF recomends 260's w/snorkel off at seal level, and after a half a summer of fine tuning, I ended up at 320's, 30 pilots, and clip in the middle groove.

It probably will run fast at 240 because it has to be lean at that main size. As long as it is not lean enough to stick it will run real fast lean... for a while. I agree, I would guess you should really be in the 260-280 range. I run Toomey's and no airbox, but the Fatty's don't seem to prefer as much main as Toomey's. I would really be hesitant about doing a WOT plug check at that main size, but you could try it. I would throw some 260's in, then do a plug check just to be safe. Then adjust based on what you see as far as plug color.
