Hey guys. I just bought a 2000 Banshee with pipes and a jet kit. When I got it home I was riding it around the street and I noticed when I had it on my driveway that there was fuel dripping ( not lots) from underneath, Any Ideas on what this might be? Thanks guys.

few drips seems to be kinda common.

Ditto. If you just bought it...for sanity's sake, you can always take the carbs off and clean them thouroughly to make sure there is not dirt and/or debris in the float bowl...

 

A drip or two, no biggie. If it gets be more than that, clean 'em up. The needle and seat might not be sealing properly.

 

My 96 sat for 5 years (before I bought it) and when I put it back together (for the friend I bought it off of) it poured gas out. Ended up being a small leaf in the carb seat, don't ask me how, it was stored with filters on, etc....

Had that happen to me on my stock carbs...the seat wasn't sealing right and it leaked just enough to get my attention. Didn't affect any performance, just needed a diaper :D
