Default banshee top speed

Douse anyone know what a stock banshee's true top speed is? Also, if you pin it on a gravel road stock, will the frontend pop up or will it spin. What about on the road . . . ? Thanks

I think on pavement a Banshee's top speed is around 75 - 80 MPH. On a gravel road it will spin and pop the front end up at the same time.

well it's illegal for a quad out of the factory to do over 78, the banshee only does about 72mph stock but you can get some minor mods and a bigger front sprocket and then you are easily breaking 80

you can make your banshee spin anywhere if u wanted. On gravel it will spin just a little though. On dirt it spins crazy but fun. You can pop wheelies anywhere u get traction (dunes with paddles, roads, grassy areas etc..) you can improve traction buying some aftermarket tires stock ones suck.

Stock banshees go 73 mph maybe a little more on pavement. the quadzilla could do 85-90 stock so i dont know when the law came into effect that a stock ATV cant go over 78 MPH. mine spins on dirt takes about 4 seconds to get going if you hit it hard enough but my tires are pretty wore out hopefully my XCR's wont spin that fast but it comes in handy if you do alot of trail riding where you can slide around the corners.
