Before i brought my Bomb i was going to get a banshee, well I rode one for the first time last sunday and it sucked. I felt cramped on it (Im 6'5) and 1st through 4th gear did not impress me at all. Im so happy I brought a DS. PS: The suspension on the banshee was disgusting.

 

I had a DS first, I then bought a Raptor, now I have a Banshee, actually, I still have all 3. I like the banshee best, except for jumping.

 

the banshee first came out in the late 1980s, not sure how much was changed. put some pipes on it and they are a lot of fun.

 

YOU WILL SPEND LESS MONEY TO GO FAST ON A SHEE BUT I MUST SAY I WONT GO TO THE DUNES IF ONE OF MY DS BIKE CANT BE THERE. NOTHING LIKE RIPPING THE DUNES ON A DS

 

after riding rory's banshee thru the whoops i'll spend more to be fast on a ds. almost killed myself in the trees
