newbe jet advice

[goinggreen]

Hi all glad I found this site it rocks,looking for advice for my 98 banshee that I just bought.

I have only ridden this once and could tell it was running lean (my guess) .

I live at sea level or maybe 50 ft above and it was 55 or 60 out on the ride.

My banshee is a 98 with the tors removed,dg pipes and silencers pro flow adaptor with a k&n in the stock box with the lid on. After looking around on here and checking dg site(they said 1 size up) I`am lost on where to start .I pulled the carbs there all stock 25 pilot 5n7 needle 3rd clip 200main from what I have found on here I was thinking in the 280 range any ideas ? thanks Jeff N.H

I would try it at 280 and look at your plugs.

Thanks going to buy 2 pilots and 280 to 320 jets and some new plugs today gettin ready for the weekend.

With the lid on the airbox, probably gonna be around the 280 or 290 mark....

When I first got my banshee, I ironically had the same setup you do...DG pipes, K&N filter/airbox with lid, and my jetting seemed perfect at 280 mains, 27.5 pilot. Stock needle was in the 4th clip from the blunt end.

280 sounds about right

Well the pilots did not come in yet but here is what I did so far. Put my new v force3 reeds in 280 mains clip in #4 down from blunt end still 25 pilots air 1 out. It was 50 out idled good tryed to drive it pulled to a point maybee 1/2 throttle then that was it to fat.Took air box lid off know it pulled good. This was in my yard so not a good test, I think I should lower the needle or buy a k&n lid filter any ideas? Thanks jeff
