Default yz85 beats 400ex???

My cousin just bought a yz85, he seems to think he can beat me in a drag of corse I thought it was bs, then I got on the thing (first time I’ve ever ridden a 2stroke and holy $h!t that thing goes!!! He can't race me because there is no good drag spots were he is allowed to drive and if his dad catches him dragging me hell kill him. Has any one ever raced these 2 and if so what happened?


P.s I’ve heard talk of a power band an the shee's but I never new how much of a snap there was (on the 85) I can't image a banshee!

thanx for the help!

Back when I first started riding, my buddy had a Banshee, and his son rode a full race CR80, that thing was scary fast for an 80cc bike !! On a long stretch of road,it would give that Banshee a run for the money, almost a dead heat.

Rode with one a couple of years ago when my Raptor was stock & those bikes are very fast. Gave my Raptor a fun for the money!!! Makes me wonder why quads don't perform like that.....
