Me and my dad have banshee's with Toomey's, my brother's got a banshee with Toomey's a boost bottle, bored .20 over, and ported, and none of us have had overheating problems. If you're worried about it, get a temperature gage.

Should be fine. Of course all Banshees tend to spew coolant at some time or another.

Is your jetting correct?
It might be or it might be a little lean. You are now a proud member of the overheating banshee club.

I can see why everyone thinks its normal..... on a stock banshee w/ no mods they do tend to spit a lil coolant on occasion. If you dont want to do any mods to your brand new bike at this time I would reccommend a pro-design super cooler(In-line cooler) and some Redline's Water wetter. All of your overheating problems will be GONE! I have since removed the overflow bottle on my shee and have not had ANY problems. Some people will say not to but it has worked great for me w/o any problems.
good luck
