Default Hondas suck now, im going with yamaha

My friend has a 400EX with a JUST a performance cam and air filter, I've watched him smoke countless banshees. Banshees are a 350 if I'm not mistaken and that's way more than half the size of the 400. Hell, if it makes any difference, he beat a banshee with his CRF450 dirtbike, and that's only 100cc's less.
That's pretty funny! You forgot to mention that every one of those races where "your friend" smoked a Banshee, he was winning for the intitial 4 feet. Even an entirely stock Banshee would pull away any day. The 400EX stock power is somewhere in the mid 20s and stock Banshee power is in the low 30s. Maybe the Banshee didn't even realize he was racing.

I'm not sure you understand displacement. 2-stoke displacement cannot even be compared to that of 4-strokes. Because basically what you're saying is that the Banshee is only a 350 so a Warrior (also a 350), but 4-stroke, should be able to hang near the Banshee.

Dirt bikes and quads don't even belong in a race together. Dirt bikes have the advantage in almost every way. Flat, straight races may be in favor of the quad but that's about the only instance. I hope your freind didn't pride himself too much on that win.

I'm not so sure the honda will fare so well at the local tracks with less than a pro rider. But just my past experience tells me Honda will make the 450 win regardless of its racefullness. Just look at the CR's long list of MX championships. Even last years baja 1000 was won on a rack ladden piece of #@&!! Rincon 650.

Oh well, long live the 2-strokes and I love my banshee at the dunes.
Bring me any other utility quad you want, and I'll show you who the "rack ladden piece of #@!!!" is. Any &#$!ing time! This s**t is stupid...

Screw ragging on honda and yamaha. Have some of yall forgotten polaris.


p.s. yamaha had the ***** to keep making the banshee even after the lawsuites. they never backed away from the high performance quad market and that is something that should be respected. They also stepped up to the plate and hit a homerun with the new yfz450. two strokes will always be here too. as long as there are after-market companies making parts for them they will be here.

one more thing. would honda have created the trx450 if yamaha hadn't made the yfz450 first? think about that one.
