first banshee, need some jetting tips

[ovalracer96shee]

I just picked a 96' banshee last night and would like to know a good starting point for my jetting. It has fmf pipes, k&n filter with lid on, and is bored .030 over. As far as i know it has stock timing and conmpression. I asked the owner if he remembered what he was running for jetting and said that he thinks he is running a 270 main jet and he couldnt rember what pilot he was running. He said it ran great in the summer when he ran it last.

 

Well i got it home and seems extremely rich of idle when reving it slighly(i havnt ridden it yet). I will try changing the plugs and see if that helps.... Any suggetions? I will be riding mostly trails and a little bit of ditches etc..

 

Elevation is 1450ft,

 

temp is 40-50 degrees.

 

thanks for helping a newbie!

Well i was thinking around the lines of this for a starting point....

 

pilot: 27.5 or my stock 25

 

main: 320

 

needle: middle (3rd)

 

 

this is for 1450ft elevation, 30-40 degrees out.

 

mods are: fmf gold pipes, 28mm carbs, single cone k&N filter without lid

 

opinions??
