I ended up sticking in 23 grams of weight for todays ride and it ran at 8100 on clicker 4. It was alright but I'll be changing to 16-17 for down at elevation and do 15.9 in the mountains. My sled worked fine but I know the way it was set up was not designed the way DJ had intended it to be. I...
installed a DJ kit with the purple/white spring, mountain ramps and I also swapped my top gear for a 19 tooth. I know, this set up is for the mountains but I want to go for a rip tomorrow on the flats. How much weight should I use?
I like to use the pink power bands. They make my sled have clean crisp response and it pulls like a freight train up on top! I'll sell you some of mine for 3 easy instalments of $19.95. Send payments to powerbandsforlife@hotmail.com
right on! I really enjoyed building up my shee. A couple of tips for you if you would like......Boost bottle....waste of time and money. It doesn't do anything but, tear intake boots, and crowd your engine. It doesn't add power. Also while you have your banshee down to the frame, cut off all the...
those pics I posted were a perfect 2mm ring. Prior to that test I was 1 jet size smaller(lean) and the plugs revealed a 1.8mm smoke ring like yours. I'm guessing you are running minkuni carbs judging by increments of 10 for jet sizes. I was running Keihin carbs on that motor. I would guess 1...
1 size up and you're perfect for those temps and elevation. Glad to see people using the plug chop method! Another rule for temp changes. For every 10 degrees C of difference, change your main 1 size. 1 up for colder or 1 down for warmer. This is approximate, You should always do a chop in...
different oils and piston types will show different wash. You can not go off of a picture on the internet without knowing all the variables. OIL, FUEL, PISTONS, etc.
Jetting is a pain in the @s$ at first. just do some research first and make sure your 100% confident in doing jetting changes before you go ahead. what I personally think what is going on, is what shopping cart said. lean (from factory) on the needle.
Thats why I don't like the wash technique.
The thing is with taking it for several rides to check the wash is, your running the engine through ALL the fuel circuits (low rpm/mid rpm/full rpm)But You have only changed the MAIN jet circuit. This is why your getting inconsistent results.
how are you checking your wash? are you doing long pulls at different rpms? Carburetion consists of 3 different fuel circuits. pilot, needle and main. It's going to be very dificult to figure out where your jetting should be without performing checks at different rpms (ALL 3 CIRCUITS) This is...
you also have to take into consideration that flat top pistons and domed pistons read differently. I also read somewhere that "rotax" engines use a different type of premix oil. If I remember correctly, BRP specifies to use a low ash oil that was designed to wash away most of the build up of...
