its the throttle over ride system, it comes on it from the factory, what you want to do is remove it. a few places sell tors removal kits gets rid of a bunch of crap on the bike, alot cleaner lok and less electrical to fail on ya

DO NOT BUY A TORS SET UP. TORS is pain in the ass and is usually the root of all problems on the banshee. TORS(Throttle Over Ride System) Stay away from this....Do a search on here and you will find all the info you need to know....especially why all banshee owners get rid of theirs as soon as they can.

it is probaly on your bike. It is the triangle like things attached to the top of your carbs

thats what i meant. why should i remove it and i was just wondering what it was! haha thanks tho guys.

first off. how do i remove it and how much is a TORS removal kit

second off- yes i know what that triangle thing on top of my carb is but i thought that was something with syncing or something

thirdly-what does it do with it on?

and last what does it do after i take it off?!? thanks!

its also the wires going into your parking brake lever and the wires going into your thumb throttle, when you buy a removal kit it comes with a new throttle cable and carb caps and a tap and drill bit and new idle screws, yu basically take all that crap of, throw it in the trash, pull your carbs off to drill and tap the idle screw holes, put the carbs back on adjust the throttle cable and your done

Here's how it could help you go faster:

 

Buy it and use it as a sinker for your fishin' pole :yelrotflmao: and eat lots of fish. That could help make you lighter, as fish is a healthy diet :thumbsup: . And your power to weight ratio would be better. :beer:

 

Nah, seriously there is nothing good at all about TORS .

so what u are saying is the tors removal kit isnt worth buying????????

 

i was going to get it please inform me!!

The tors kills the spark if the throttle cable gets stick or the slides in your carbs get stuck. So if you take it off and your cable gets stuck your bike will just rev outta control and you will have to kill the ignition to stop. If you leave the tors on then it will kill the spark by itself and you bike will die. It is a safety device. Taking them off will add NO performance. Some guys say they cause trouble with the electrical. I never had problems with mine, and I don;t have mine anymore cause I bought a single carb kit. The throttle cable design on the stock cables or any dual carb cables suck. They can hang up easily.
