Make sure the Tors system is removed.
Banshee hate airleaks. Make sure the boots are not ripped.
Be careful sometimes she likes to buck ya off :)
Get rid of the stock tires if it has them still.
I also replaced the side cover phillips heads with a kit from Vito that came with allen headed bolts.
Do NOT hold the shee wide open for more then 5 secs or so.
Be sure to mix you OIl/Gas correctly. I like to mix 32:1.


More important

HAVE FUN!!!

So have I. It just isn't real good on a 2-stroke to hold them wide open for a long time.

Also is this true?

I heard if you are crusing down the road and hold the throttle on a 2-stroke at a steady speed it will lean out?

It wont actually "lean out" with the jetting. You will start to run the carb bowls out of fuel if you hold it at a steady RPM, so it will seem like it is cutting out due to being lean.

i have never heard this before

One of my friends told me that. He said that is why his blaster blew up:ermm:

Noticed you have a 87 Banshee. I have a 87 banshee rolling chassis let me know if you need anything.
