[wobbliebob]

hi i got a banshee in november and its been brilliant no problems what so ever until yesterday, i took it to a track (practice day) it started off ok despite how wet and muddy it was i got 1 lap round and as i just started second lap it just started reving up on its own and accelorating, i pulled in to pits had a look see if anything obvius, checked choke carbs seem to be sync ok checked air box it was a bit wet but nothing major still dryed it out....

[Kinkryder8]

great video! i was having some problems with my banshee running uneven between the cylinders. at lower throttle range it will run more on the left cylinder. i can hear it buzzing away on the left but just a ting ta ting on the right one. i recently bought my banshee and just cleaned the carbs. ive noticed this uneven running problem and it also doesnt seem to pull as hard as it used to. could this be my problem? any help would greatly be appreciated!

[heroes91092]

wow thats pretty awesome. I'm just not sure where to adjust it on my carbs

[XxWantedSnipexX]

Great success on syncing carbs

[daVidFonda]

[WildxMan58]

Great video man. i just bought a 2002 banshe that has a few great mods but ima throw some others on there to make it alot better lol. but my buddy just rebuilt his and its 60 over and his carbs is just givin him alot of trouble its using to much gas when riding and wont idle worth a damn. but ima use this video and see what all we can do for it. he has the boxes ima try and get him to get rid of those and do it like yours but if you have anything you could tell me just send me a message thx.

[npenka]

hey ya i need help. i baught a conversian throtle but it has to have the T.O.R.S. electrical box, is it better to remover this box, if so how?

[codyh911]

Ive got a problem to i have a 88 banshee and when i fire it up the right side only fires but they both have spark and i found out that the left side is not sucking fuel in and i cleaned the carbs and looked at the jets and got new fuel lines and new plugs wires and when i ride it it seems like it is fireing on 2 but the left one is not smokeing i cant figure it out can you help me thanks alot

[chakodewatts]

Thanks bro nice info never knew !!!

[TCONA360]

would this be the same idea for a brute force 650 ?

[bigant215]

How do u get pin marks to get centered on carb window

[javant138]

Stick popsicle sticks under the slides and kneel eye level parallel to the carbs. Then open the throttle this will let you really fine tune the opening of the carbs alot better than just eyeballing it. So much eaiser on your crank when both carbs open at the same time.

[2001yz250rider1]

this was a great vid. Thanks for posting. i have been thinking of trading my dirtbike for a banshee but what stopped me was that they are supposably hard to tune and my friends banshee has given him nothing but problems. now that i saw this vid i definitly understand how to tune them a bit more. thanks for the post!

[DirtRiders2010]

Nice tutorial man. Alot of people have absolutely no clue how to sync carbs. Awesome job.

[tealakota]

It's $20. and if you would like one just send me a private message and I'll give you my paypal address and get one out to you. Thanks

[stuandleah]

THIS GUY IS GOOD TWO THUMBS UP

[useranonguy]

hi i'm wondering if you can help me. i followed the video, but my banshee isn't accelerating like it used to, it seems to be lacking power. i also noticed that when its idling, if i pull the choke, it cuts out. any suggestions. thanks for the very helpful video

[tealakota]

@useranonguy a lot of times if it runs worse or cuts out when you pull the choke then you are too rich. Also make sure your choke tube is connected between the two carbs.

[useranonguy]

@tealakota Thanks, it was the choke tube. but just checked and resynced anyway. they were slightly out. it's running correctly now. wow this bike is insanely quick. thanks for all the help. and the great video

[useranonguy]

great video. i synced my carbs following the video. my banshee appears to be running fine, it idles well, but cuts out when i pull the choke, it is also lacking power at the top end. any suggestions?

[mrtim704]

I cant even tell you how much this video helped me..thank you!

[440restsux]

hey man i gotta prob idk if you can help me, i changed the oil in my banshee and since then the clutches have been slipping and idk why, it could be the oil i was given at yamaha (10w 40) and they told me it was the right oil for the banshee but the clutches have been slipping since.. i was wondering what kind of oil you use and if you have problems with specific types of oil... thanks a million man that would def help!!!

[tealakota]

You're best bet is to use gear case oil like Maxima or Bel Ray Gearsaver but 10w40 shouldn't really cause slippage. It all depends on how you ride and at what temps etc. overall though, most likely it's not the oil causing the slipping. You might need to check the wear on the plates and springs. Get a manual if you don't have one and check the specs for the springs, plates and fibers.

[TheDwortham]

what does it mean if my banshee is running rough and 1 of my carbs when i rev it up spits gas out where the air filter is

[chonyc77]

Great video dude!!!! We want more!

[ironibre]

Thanks so much that helped me out a ton

[amcjpr8657]

this was very helpful. do you know of a site that can help me find out what jets i should be using on my banshee. fmf exhaust/pipes, kn filter, bored 80 over, and cool head with 22cc domes. thanks

[wq1299]

What points of reference do you cover on the Banshee. I know really nothing about my Banshee and would love to know more. So much I want to learn and do. I hate having to take the Banshee into the shop for carb syncing and jetting all the time. I do have the Tors boxes, do you specify how to eliminate them. Thanks

[DavieTheGreat]

Put some new plugs in and see if it Kick starts! alot of the time that can be the issue... because its 2 stoke the plugs need to be changed about once a mouth!

[2004trickblaster]

very useful thanks

[ukelp]

banshee jetting fax has lots of info to . you can adjust it wile it is running to then stop the engine and open the throttle a tad and listen for the carbs tap shut evenly with a idle screw kit.

[669Banshee]

Here's a Tip also if you don't have a little window on your carb The two screws on top the allows to sink them at the same height .. you want to screw the two screws all the way "down " and then looking at the two carbs from the back where you would see if there out of " Sink " see part Two sorry i could not fit all the Tip in the Box .

[669Banshee]

Part 2 ! put a Mark with a Black Sharpie in the front of the screw and put a small line on the top of the cap and you can Count On how many times you Turn the Screw to set it at the Same . When thats done you have adjusted the two carbs at the same Height !. SO hope this Little TIP WORKS FOR YOU ANd GOOD LUCK ..

[espltdm251playa]

great video man thanks \m/

[jerry44ave]

need pp info

[bundals2010]

i have a 2004 banshee and the only way to start it is with a squirt bottle and gas and oil would you be able to help me i think it might be my carbs i have 240 mains with a stock needle tors fmf fattys k&n air cleaner bore .30 over and 2004 engine on a 1988 frame

[prosser369258]

i think your needles might need to be richer, and you should check your mains as well for each mod, 240 sounds small.. hope this helps

[669Banshee]

your jets are Full of Gunk NEED to Clean them IF the jets are not Clean the Gas will not rise on there OWn but when starting it makes a Vaccum that then allows gas to Be sucked out of the Bowls . WEll good luck

[Paulstathis1992]

nvm i got it after watching, can u tell if its out of sync without taking anything apart, you know by just hearing the engine?? because for some reason on my banshee one spark plug is cleaner than the other?? can someone help me please??

[gregger454]

the PTO side usually runs hotter, most jetting specs are one step bigger on pto.

[suzukiman94]

if one spark plug is cleaner then the carb isnt working right

[Paulstathis1992]

what does sync the carbs ???

[Blackwell132]

Really good video man, more videos like this :D

[tealakota]

That video is just a short excerpt from the 2 hour video I did on the entire banshee. If you guys want a copy just send me a private message and I'll give you my paypal address for the $20. and then I'll send it out to you. I don't charge for shipping.

[yammyspeed13]

How all do those boast bottles work? Does fitting one make it harder to start?

[espltdm251playa]

i have a boost on mine but i heard they dont do anything, mine was on it when i got her

[669Banshee]

Those Boost bottle are no good some one told me that they Dyno there banshee with it and with out it and with the boost bottle the lost power why that cross over tube is there was it was a Idea from Yamaha to use if for what they thought was a good idea it just for the carbs to self balance them selfs but the gas and to Vacum is not even strong enuff to pull Gas from one Carb to another So i just Plug the two holes OFF works better so try that out , good luck the the Banshee

[espltdm251playa]

ill try that out thanks for the info

[mattylaw21]

do you think a back firing carb would be a sync problem. Its been doing it for 6 years. Awesome video too

[jacekaudi11]

ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya

[waccojuice]

[mudduck5150]

[15windinrider15]

[Xx2strokeGodxX]

[Xx2strokeGodxX]

thx dude

[ez087]

Great Video brotha keep up the good work! Im pretty shore all the Banshee lovers are greatful!

[ericpdav]

Great, I learned alot,thanks

[saxplaya07]

gr8 video man!

[tealakota]

Thanks, usually it's going to be one of two things... either the floats need to be adjusted (check manual for specs). Or your needle and seats need to be replaced. You can get a carb rebuild kit to take care of that from your local dealer.

[espltdm251playa]

cool video mam, how do i get mine from leaking from the drain hose i cleaned them out many times and still no luck, the drain screw is tight also so i know its not that

[tealakota]

You either need a new drain screw or o-ring, or you need to adjust your float level to correct specs, or you need a carb rebuild kit so you can replace your needle valve because that little rubber nipple in there is worn out.

[espltdm251playa]

i ended up getting new carbs and had a shop do all the mods to them and other things,thanks for the help

[cr80manMX]

does this have the TORS on it. mine does not and will not start or idle (will start if pop started). Do you have any suggestions?

[tealakota]

No the TORS are the big boxes that normally sit on top of the carbs. This one does not have TORS. If you are having to push start your bike you most likely have a jetting issue or really low compression. Check your compression first and then you might want to check your pilot jets and air/fuel screw.
