cuddie 1 Posted November 19, 2006 Report Posted November 19, 2006 Hey I have a 87 Banshee it has T-5's K&N filters in the stock air box with no lid, twist throttle, key switch removed other than that its stock. When I am ridding or just running it in the garage it will start to die out and at wide open throttle it just bairley stays running and will not rpm up at all if you shake the bike a couple of times it will stop and run great. I have a clear fuel filter on it and when it does it the filter is always full. The bike has never even fouled a plug??? Help! :: Quote
okbeast Posted November 19, 2006 Report Posted November 19, 2006 Did you rejet when you put the pipes on? Quote
cuddie 1 Posted November 19, 2006 Author Report Posted November 19, 2006 Did you rejet when you put the pipes on? Yes the bike runs bitchin' this problem is intermitant and seems to really do it more when it is hot. Sometimes the bike has to be push started???? Electrical? Wiring? Quote
Animalman294 Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 Yeah, it could be electrical, but when did you clean your carbs out last. You by chance didn't bend or drop anything (ie float parts) when you rejetted did you. It may be starvin' for fuel and you shakin' the bike moves the float and gets fuel to motor................... :beer: Quote

cuddie 1 Posted November 20, 2006 Author Report Posted November 20, 2006 exactly what i was thinking :beer: Wouldn't it have to effect both carbs in order for the bike not to rpm at all? What are the chances that it effects both carbs at the exact time????? Quote
thegroup Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 just lucky. stranger things have been know to happen. if u have a cylmer (sp) service manual, u should go ahead and check the float levels. its just a thought Quote
