That's crazy power. Damn.
Any 80's/90's two stroke fans in here?

Fresh pic. Had to uncover her and put the 2023 ORV stickers on. Swapped out the rear Hoosier for one of them new Dunlop MX14 sand/mud tire. Should make navigating the Michigan trails a little easier.

In response to the Tecate 250 earlier, Ginger Billy has one... lol
You vintage guys should bring your bikes out and do this.

Almost complete. Should get the first ride since the rebuild next weekend. Hopefully there’s a photographer and the track next weekend so I can share some vet rider photos with questionable form.
Bike was completely framed and cleaned. All bearings replaced etc
2020 yz250 that needed love after about 70 hours
Pro circuit race motor to run on straight c12 only and all the usual bolt ons.

Drooling at the sight of the RD400. I had a '74 RD350. What a blast those things were.
They are fun! I also have a 74 RD200 just a around town cruiser!
Just ordered me a hand-made Hygge pipe for the Magnum Eagle... Can't wait to hear it howl. 
Heading to Michigan this week for a few days. I'll try to get some pics with it installed.

Yeeeeeess!!
I have 2 hand coned pipes on 2 of my machines. They sound soooooo bad ass.
You'll love it.
Figured id ask here since other places had no remedy:
I'm having issues setting my idle correctly on my banshee. The idle drops too low once it warms up. It doesnt respond well to turning in the idle scews.
I put the dynatek ecu I had lying around to see if it's an ecu issue. I also cleaned the carbs, made sure pilots and mains were clean as well. I put new spark plugs too.
I screwed in the air screw a half turn at a time and no change. I also am able to screw in the idle screws in and it barely makes a difference. I can screw in the shifter side idle screw all the way and the bike barely idles higher to around 1250ish. Very strange. I don't think this is the ecu. The bike does have a slight bog off idle. Other than that, she runs nice and crispy. The issue has to be me and i'm over looking something simple.
Edit 8/6/23* went down one size on the pilot jets. Idle seems far better. I'll have to go to ride wot and let it eat to make sure. Thanks for the suggestions already made.

It's been a while since I've fooled with two strokes but if you've run out of adjustment on the mixture screws I think you need to go up one size on the pilots. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, it's been a while.

2 stroke carb running can be a bitch.
I would double check all passages. What brand carb is this. Mikuni? Kiehn? The best guys I know for jet advice is JD Jetting. They'll help you know what needs to be done.
I've got a Mikuni TMX38 on my bike. It had some issues. JD Jetting suggested a couple of things and now it's better than new.

Ive got my eyes on the 2023 300XC or maybe an SX. They are so bad ass. Might have to add one to my garage.

You should be able to see a noticable change in idle quality + or - from 1.5 turns out on the air screw. If nothing changes, your idle jets are not right.
Yours looks rich, but im no banshee expert.
I haven’t had a chance to ride a sx300 but everyone I’ve talked to with one raves about it. If I could spend your money for you I’d say do it lol
For real man... im probably gonna do it. They are the pinnacle of 2 stroke tech with fuel injection, switchable maps, etc.
So cool
