If you ride track go 450 class if you are going to do woods/trail riding go for a 400 class quad! Banshee for for drag only!

The Shee has a thrilling powerband, but that's all. The frame design is poor at best. Sure it was considered fine 20 years ago, but by today's standard it is pathetic!

The YFZ is probably the best thing Yamaha has ever produced....

To me it's a no brainer. The YFZ. I've seen Banshees that can go fast in a straight line but that's all they can do. I see some guys that go up and down one hill all day on them and never even go out on the trail. I heard the reason why is that it's really hard to trail ride them.
