you say banshees arent fast unless you have ten grand into them? how about throw on a set of 500 dollar pipes and a port job and it'll haul *** i dont think you could even put 10 grand into one unless you buy a whole new chassis ect. and your raptor 660 doesnt look too fast compared to half the modded shees out there. but about the post, its mostly about rider, when both machines have about the same mods, either bike could win.

by the time you buy the bike pipes heads piston kit and all the other odds and ends your lookin like ten grand i know alot of guys with that much into a banshee and as far as my bike goes its faster than you think i cant beat banshees that are completely done out but the other ones look out!! there is no replacement for bigger ccs i dont think ive got the fastest thing out there but for the normal guy out there its pretty fast im new here when i figure it out ill post some pics for you to check out

Not to be a jerk, but you might want to re-do your math.
Pipes for 500-700 bucks
High compression domes couple hundred bucks (or have your own re-done for under 100 bucks)
Port-job 200-500 bucks (depending on what port job you go with)
Intake 100-200 bucks
Timing advancer 100 bucks or so....
Reed valves 300.....

Looks to me like for less than 2 grand you could have a smoking hot Banshee!

So back to your question, assuming BOTH riders are of equal skill, AND assuming the Banshee is ported (don't know of anyone who would go up in cylinder size without a proper port job), I'd guess that the Banshee would walk away from the TRX.

I'd still rather watch it in person though [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
