Read through some of the old Banshee jetting threads but would like to throw this one up.

Its been a long time since I have rode and actually worked on my shee. As it is right now im running FMF SST pipes/sils, Pro flow foam filter w/box off and running 290 mains w/30 pilots (located in FT.Worth, TX, at or just above sea level I beleive).

Now, my plugs are black after a day ride. I beleive I am running rich, now should I jump down to a 280 main? The bike always did seem to ride very well but kinda seemed to lack power on the top end. Not 100% sure since I have not rode in over 6 months.

Any comments or suggestions appriciated [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Put fresh gas in it.

 

Fresh gas, of course [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] but it has been doing this to the plugs since I piped it.
Well, I completly tore it down today and cleaned and cleaned out the carbs as well. Will see how she still runs this weekend [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Good idea. Also, while you have carb off, check reeds for cracks or frayed edges. If you have some cash laying around, install a V-FORCE delta2 reed cage. Best bolt-on mod for a 2-stroke. About $170 for my CR.
