I have had quite a few Banshees come in that would not start. Check the pilot jets. Its the only jet that lets fuel into the carb during idle. Pilot clogged=no fuel. Also, try kicking bike with fuel off and throttle wide open. That has worked for me with bikes that have sat for a while.

Its not fixed, I hacked the TORS out and took the rear brakelight off. Any other suggestions? Ive cleaned the floats 3 times now. Im going for 4 tonight.... I think it might be another prob.

Which jet is the pilot jet? Pics would be helpful.

Also when i hack the tors off do i have to turn my idle up?

pilot jets are the smaller jets in the carb body. You will find them after removing the float bowl.
