IS THIS RIGHT

[Swaie]

So I finally got a banshee, and it doesn't have an air box. It just has two K&N airfilters on the stock carbs. Is that normal? And when I bought it the guy told me that I need bigger carbs. The ones on the bike are stock. Should I step up and get bigger carbs with the mods in the sig or will stock do? And final question would it be a good idea to go to a smaller dome.

The 2 K&N filters are normal. That is what I have, they are also known as pod filters. I reccomend to run outerwears if you don't already have them. These filters are not too good for riding in wet environments. Bigger carbs can always help, but it is good to know what kind of porting was done or who did it. I am running stock carbs with ported cylinders. I use to have T5's also but went to a different type of pipe.

 

If you just got the bike I would advice for you to go through the bike. Clean carbs(check jets so you can know what you have), oil change, clean air filters, lube your cables. By checking your main jets can also give you some what of an idea if it was ported or not.

 

Check your compression to see if you should be running hi-octane or 50/50 mix.

bigger carbs would only be needed bepending on the port job... if its mild then id say you could run stock but .... it wouldnt hurt to maybe get some 28 pwk for better throttle respones..

 

if your motor has a pretty wild port job then yes it wouldnt hurt to go bigger but its kinda hard to tell you not knowing much about the motor... also you say go smaller domes? we dont know what size your running yet so you might already be at stock... get a compression tester and see how much compresso you got and post what fuel youd like to run and maybe we can be a little more helpful
