grpark20 Posted May 13, 2006 Report Posted May 13, 2006 (edited) Anyone in the WA state area with a modded shee? Need some advice or just your set up for jets, pilots, and needle. Edited May 13, 2006 by grpark20 Quote
bandanshee Posted May 17, 2006 Report Posted May 17, 2006 (edited) Im from Ephrata, by the moses lake dunes. Since the temp varies alot here, I constantly change jets. My motor has a medium-dune type port (not too huge), milled head, and I run t5's with +4 timing and k&n clamp-on filters. When it's really hot i can get away with a 310 main and stock needle in the 3rd position, with the stock pilots (airscrew about 1.5 out), using 100 octane. Usually, if the temps are in the 50-70 range, i run a 320 or 330 main to be safe. I also ride down in florence oregon once a year, and last year I had to up my main one size, because of the lower elevation. 100 octane fuel is not really required for +4 timing and a .030 head around here, but in the oregon dunes it is a must, as pressure from the lower elevation creates more compression. Where in WA are you from? Edited May 17, 2006 by bandanshee Quote

cudaz101 Posted May 21, 2006 Report Posted May 21, 2006 Like bandanshee basically said...It depends alot on where you ride in WA...Elevation and temps are key... What works for me in Pullman WA. Elev. @ 2700ft I use 290's with my mild mods...And I keep my modded airbox lid on. When I go to the Blue Mountains riding @ 3200ft+ I just remove my airbox lid and I am good to go. Its pretty much spot on and the bike responds great at both elevations. There are some great jetting articles if you search for them...GREAT information that anyone with a Banshee needs to know.
