Same thing at Rocky Ridge on Saturday, tons of people, actually it was the most crowd I have seen there! It was muddy as hell, and there was 2 raptors there to top it off. One was riden by an older male with a big gun slip on, very loud. The other was riden by a younger male, prolly around 20-24 with his friend on a banshee. They raced a few times, both completly stock and the Raptor took him 3 out of 4 times on a straight dirt road about 100 or to yards.

I had a great time on the shee with the new maxxis razrs and rims. Got there the shee was white and black, by the time we left it was BROWN!, lol.

Fouled a set of plugs and now I think its running lean as some people tell me. Maybe I need to raise the ratio to 40:1 or rejet a little. Backfired 2 times and was smoking a little more than normal at idle and full throttle with a ratio of 32:1.

Hope this next weekend is more clear, had a little drizzle and was around 40 degrees last saturday.

20:1 is a lot richer than 40:1 I don't think you could be running lean at 20:1...Try to lean it out a little maybe try 40:1 next tank of gas!

Im not sure what the dealership had in it but when I put in 32:1 after the tank was empty thats when the problems accoured.

Which way to go? 20:1 or 40:1?

Took the Banshee back to the dealer last Thursday. Called them up on Friday to get any info on what the prob was, well they are ordering new carbs for it (good thing the warranty is still there). My bottom end was completly dead and there was a problem with the floats. Hope to get it back before T-day sets in......!
