welcome to the site man..

 

basically, its how much do you wanna spend. the mods you can do are endless.. here are a few common ones that will turn your banshee into a whole other machine.

 

1)aftermarket pipes..depends on your riding which kind you buy.

2)aftermarket reeds

3)aftermarket air filter..stock is junk.

 

these are probably the 3 most common mods. they will offer you the most bang for your buck. give us a budget, and we can get you set up...

 

also, im not sure what premix oil youre using, but klotz is a good oil to use. im guessing if you bought it brand new the stealership recommended yamalube.. well, that shit is junk. switch immediately..

And a big bank account to re-fill it..................

Immediately strip off the stock Nerfs and fork out for some ACs or DG nerf bars. A metal radiator protector is a must. Replace the swing arm skid plate and get a solid Aluminum deal as soon as you can.

You all left out the most imprortant thing

Throttle OverRide System

the big ugly things on top of the stock carbs. and has switchs on the e-brake and throttle. and a little black box above the left cylinder under the tank.

What kinds of jetting do you guys suggest if the bike only has a open box k&n filter and T5's.

 

And also what do reeds do? Is that part of the exhaust or intake system.

 

Thx fellas.

You need to do a plug chop to see where the jetting is...............

I would start around 300-320 at sea level with that set up and do a plug chop. I ran a 290-300 at sea level with a foam filter with no lid

[jamebo]

I'm around sea level and I run 300's with open box, K&N and Fatty pipes. Your reeds are between the carbs and the cylinders.

 

Well, I actually run an EHS outerwears lid.... but it pulls air like an open box.

[ITALIABANSHEE]

How about cool heads? Does it really make a difference or is it mainly for cooling.

 

Thanks for the info fellas!
