my brother has a 96 cr 125, and i ride wheelies faster then he can go with his fmf decked out bike. it really pisses him off my banshee is a 87 too, but i do have it modded a little but still could beat him in a race when it was stock when i bought it 2 years ago

Banshee will easily roost that dirt bike, which being the banshee stock, i guess to beat a stock banshee is a 250

I've seen a 125 run with a 420 banshee.

I have raced a YZ 250 with My Banshee and beat it but my Banshee is far from stock.

I always thought and heard that a 125 will beat a banshee? That isn't true?

Hard to tell, I think it all depends on the rider, put a 250lb beginner on a banshee and a 150lb veteran on a 125 and the guy on the 125 will win, put a 250lb beginner on a 125 and a 150lb veteran on a banshee and the banshee will win... I would think the two would be awfuly close, how can you out accelerate a 2-stroke racing Dirtbike?? They may not go overly fast but they sure get there super quick..

your smoking crack if you think that a cr125 will beat a banshee. my old 400ex was about a half a quad lenght behind a cr125 in a full out drag. now my banshee, would slay a cr125. a modded banshee would hang with a cr250 for that matter.
