I took a Banshee off of the local 4-Wheeler lot and must say that is the fastest **** I have ever been on.
I can't remember all of the engine mods but it was race ready.
I was trying to do a wheelie on it which was a bad mistake since I didn't know when the powerband would kick in and busted my as*. It was my own fault, I should had riden it around more then tried a wheelie.
It ended up being a very short ride on that thing since I broke a few things on the suspension. O well, it was fun while it lasted.
I would love to try out some of the new four wheelers with the fuel injection, but they are so damn expensive.

LOL, If you know how to ride you can get use to the power band in no time. I think u might be a little inexperienced? Mostly all two strokes with different pipes have a wide range of power bands adjusting to different bikes is a great skill to have.
To the raptor dude!
Yea I am still debating whether I would rather have the 700 because of the ride. They are so much smoother. And on a good track or trail against some one who knows how to ride the yfz would ripp you a new ***. Thats how it is stock. Maybe cause of all the sh** you did you could beet a stock yfz but with some good tuning some new jets and header and silencer it would be very hard to beet the yfz with a great rider. The rider makes all the difference. I have smoked yfz450 and raptors on trails and courses due to there inexperience. On the straight away its with out a doubt i would loose cause come on it dosnt take a genus to shift gears and press a button.
Hmmm then again i might get the 700.

Im sure STOCK TO STOCK the YFZ would walk on a Raptor on the track, but for the HP I got with my mods I will stick to the Raptor and throw some better suspension on it.
Maybe I could beat a stock YFZ with all my mods... please. It would be an *** raping for the YFZ

Well let me state the fact again that was the first two-stroke I have ridden, ever. I had only been on the bike for maybe five minutes cruising down a dirt road mashing the throttle to see what it could do before I tried a wheelie. Let's just say it a little different than the 400EX's I have. Experience? Not the most, but I definetely know how to ride, and If i didn't what owner would let me take a Banshee off their lot to take for the weekend at the age of 14.

I've been to sand dunes several times and if you have ever been you know that Banshee's are THE quad to have out there because of the insane power they have. To bad they quit the production of them b/c I would love to be able to buy a new one a few years from now.
