You are comparing kawi to yamaha? A company that still produces 3 quads that have been virtually identical since 1987? Blaster, warrior, banshee...
Yes I am comparing Yamaha to Kawi who didnt even have a "REAL" sport quad until the v force and 400! The banshee is identical because it still sells like crazy! The warrior is the most sold sport quad of ALL time!!! The blaster still sells like crazy as well!!! Even now with the v force and 400 which RECENTLY came out, who sells more sport quads? Yamaha or Kawi???? Who sold more sport quads before the vforce and 400??? Who is truly behind in times!! The public has spoken for themselves!!! Yamaha is both the #1 seller of MX bikes and also the #1 seller of sport quads, of ALL the manufacturers! Why is that?

The banshee sells like crazy because it has been the only high performance 2 stroke availible for the last 10 years. Had another company had one availible, it would be a different story.

The warrior is tops all time because it has been out for 17 years without major changes. When a bike has a major change, its called something else and the numbers dont continue to add up. How many honda 250x and 300ex bikes has honda sold combined? I'm sure that number would be close considering they were basically the same bike anyway...

The blaster sells like crazy because it is the only dirt cheap quad with a 2 stroke engine so that you have decent power. The mojave, 250ex, and z250 are thumpers and therfore have less power compared to a similarly sized 2 stroke. The blaster is so cheap because the tooling costs have been paid for years. Thats the reason it sells, its cheap and people are cheap and kids dont have money.

Kawasaki had the tecate, which was the fastest stock 250 btw. Kawi is behind in sport sales because they just have started to come out with them.

Here I am defending kawasaki. I have never owned one in my life before this prarie and never wanted to. I disliked kawi. I loved honda, then they had nothing to beat the big bore bikes, so I bought a raptor. Now I love yamahas. Yet you are so blind that I have to sit here and defend a company that I didnt even like until I bought my p.

telco: You ragged on kawis. Then you said you wanted one. Then you said you couldn't afford one. Then you started ragging on kawis again. 1) You're mental. 2) You're jealous. 3) You want to be the center of attention. 4) You never post anything technical or useful. 5) Stop wasting Kawi forum time. Your opinion means nothing because it's mean spirited and useless. Get off the forum.

My "LITTLE" 250cc 4 stroke Yamaha MX bike has 5 valves and handles 13,000! safely! Also, are you NOW telling me that your PRAIRIE can beat a BANSHEE up to 55mph???????????????????????
dude thats my point you are saying that kawasaki is far behiend when it has a motor almost twice as big as your LITTLE 450 and it can still turn about the same rpms and it with more than double the moving mass. if kawi were to build a light weight 450V-Twin you would be killed. WHO said anything about your 250. Also maybe you didnt read on how i was racing the ban$hit we were on loose gravel i had it in 4wd we were going about 10mph and when we floored it I hooked up and i was gon. Whille he had to down shift , slip the cluth(only way to get a 2 smoke to even move) and when his powerband kiked in he just spun . so yes the banshee did not pass me till i was doing about 55.

Tellico, PLEASE go back to your forum, and leave us, that love the Prairie, alone. I don't think anyone from our forum is out bashing the Grizz on the Yammy forum. Go away, already.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]
