Hi, I am thinking of buying a new quad, and I'm not sure if I choose a Banshee or an 400EX.
I love high speeds, but I am concerned that the banshee can give me a lot of problems. Is it possible to put a 400EX within the limites of a Banshee??
What do u guys think I should purchase? Why?

Well by the time you add up all those receipts from modding out a 400ex to the point of a Banshee. You would have spent way more than maintaining a banshee (rebuilds,spark plugs,air filter,ect.).

You should consider what type of riding you will be doing. Are you going to the mx track to race, or are you going on the trails? Both are great quads, the banshee has the speed, but the 400ex has the handling and suspension. Its your decision, just make sure you know what you are getting it for. It would be senseless to get something that you will never be able to get to the top speed anyway. My hubby rides his as fast as he can, but unless your on a track, it doesn't come close to hitting top speed. Like I said, your call, but make sure you know all the facts.

00 400ex (his)
01 300ex (mine)
00 Recon (sold)
