Blew my mind! I had no idea Yammy still made the Banshee. I thought they quit making that in the '90s. Haven't seen one around here in years. Must just be too much mud! If Yamaha was smart, they would stick that motor in the Wolverine. Then they'd have something to compete with the Scrammy.

LONG LIVE 2-STROKES!!
That's the weirdest thing I've ever heard. A wolverine with a banshee engine? You might as well have 2wd.

Might as well have 2wd? What does that mean? The point is that the Wolverine is seriously underpowered to compete with the Scrambler 4x4. Around here, if you don't have a 4x4, you ain't riding about 50% of the trails. It's not just for the mud, you need it to climb the hills and to get over fallen trees (or even push them over in some cases), and to pull your buddies out when the muck hole turns out to be a foot deeper than he thought and even his winch won't pull him out.

I think what hes saying is that it would be pointless to put a shee motor in a 4x4. Think about the powerband that the shee has..either its on WIDE OPEN, or not at all! that would be terrible for a 4x4 when you want that stump pulling torque to push that log out of the way or climp over that fallen tree...question, you wanna crawl over it, or jump it!

Not with a properly set up cvt. The motor can run in a nice narrow band all the time.

the banshee would win because it is 2 stroke and a twin. no matter what you say, i do think it would be very close. maybe if the predator had a pipe or somthin it might pull away in the long run but the banshee wil beat it off the lne everytime.

A banshee won't get off the line first it's low end power sucks if anything it would be the other way around the pred gets the launch and the banshee catches up and passes it. I haven't seen the race between a shee and pred but I know a raptor will get the holeshot on a shee. Now the shee would probably eventually pass the predator but I don't know if it would be before 300 feet.
