The day I got my raptor I raced my friends 2 week old banshee and beat him by 4-5 quad lengths and he is more experienced than I am... Go for the raptor!! But overall both quads can be modified to hell and back... Later!!

raptor no doubt for the dunes and trail riding. perhaps the banshee for drag but not if you are going to stay stock. staying stock go for the raptor, plus there is the question of maintenance. do you want to be working on your 2-stroke between rides? hell no, i would never buy a banshee. i smoked a few banshees my first time riding my stock ds 650 which is comparable stock to the raptor. whatever you do, don't buy the banshee

What kind of riding are you mostly going to be doing? If you ride mostly dunes and drag while there get a Banshee. If you trail ride get a raptor as the reverse will make life easier. I have dragged many a raptor in the dunes and only the most highly modified ones can beat my piped Banshee. I used to race my Banshee when it was stock against friends piped and filtered raptors and they couldn't win. Try side hilling on a raptor and you will know that a Banshee is a better choice as you won't feel like your going to roll. I would rather get a Polaris Predator if you wanted a 4 stroke. Don't believe all the BS the 4 stroke guys talk about 2 smokes needing work between each ride. I know of plenty of 2 smokes that require less attention than 4 strokes and if/when something does blow up a 2 stroke is 10 times easier to rebuild.

Went on a ride last weekend down in Virginia, 20 guys from all over, KFX's, 400EX's, C-dales, Predators, DS650, 310R, 250R, 4X4's and 1 banshee, Can you guess the first one to break down? 5 minutes into the very first ride. The did get it running, had to take the carbs off drain them, then change the plugs. He did last the whole rest of the day riding! Pictures are over at E X R I D E R S 4Punks get together.
