I cant believe this is even an issue. I thought this was common knowledge. Apparently too many kids have z's and think they can smoke the world.

 

Ok, you live in Ohio right! So do I. If you know where youngstown is I am offering you inventation to my house to go riding. Where we ride there is a trail that lets us ride to a local drag strip. I'm sure you rember how the race was agenst the 400 you said you got beat by. I also have a friend with a kfx 400 with a pipe and a K&N who will come out to get beat on again. I'll race the 2 of you so you can see. He knows how bad he gets smoked so I dont have to prove it to him but I want you to see. Then we'll race so you dont say hes a bad driver. I guarentee you will see a serious a$$ whoppin on both of you. Whell even make it a short race because in the whole 1/4 you and him will lose buy a good 8 bikes depending how bad i smoke the tires. Then when the smokeing is done we'll go get a beer on me.

As for the stupid coment on banshees not haveing low end. Low end is for women if your rideing hard your not in the low end and you sure not in it in a drag race. If you are I guarentee your losing.

I am telling you a fact the 400's do NOT compair when it comes to speed.

 

WTF They are no way in HELL you will beat me by 8 quads.... You are on...let me take my 4X4 off frist. I don't not get on here and run at the mouth about my quad. I will tell you what I will pay for your gas to come down here since the Z is here and so is mine. I have a spot in the field marked off 100 yards. I just got off the phone with the guy that has the Z he said he will race you quad for quad!!!!!!!! Take him up on it.... his is JUST STOCK. They should not be a problem you beating him. Then you can take the Z and sell or trade it.

And as far as the Z beating me go back and read it again. I beat him by half of a quad. Nothing to brag about.

 

i'll take you up on that beer

 

I hoped someone would [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]. As for quad length. I didn't read that you actuall have some mods. However In 1/4 mile drag I guarentee you there would still be a good distance. That quad dosen't top out near the MPH that mine would. As for the z if he wanst to race he's gonna race my quad, the entire speed of my quad. In 100 yards I'm just shifting to 5th. I still got way more to go.

 

I would compare the Z to the 400ex before i compared it to the Banshee..

 

Yep, I agree 100%

 

Ok I need to pipe in here...

Stock for stock...Banshee, but not by a ton.
Piped for Piped...Banshee, getting worse. Banshees have a HUGE gain with pipes, but a Z usually gets about 5HP

From there it will only get worse, as the there are very few limits with the Banshee potential.
It takes some serious mods to hang with Banshees, I have no rouble at all with stock or piped ones, but from there on it depends on the mods, and also how good the rider is which plays a giant part when on a two stroke.

 

Hey 2004LEBANSHEE, I was only jerking your chain dude....I know the banshee can smoke a Z 400. I did not think it would go this far. You are more then welcome to come and ride with us some time. Don't be pissed. The beer will be on me....We need to hook up sometime and ride.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]. Like I said i'm a 2 stroke fan to the end. Nothing agaist 4 strokes.....I don't want something else started.

 

I really wasn't pissed. Just shocked on why someone would believe this. I was also trying to figure out the possibility of me messing up a start or breaking something if I raced your friend. I knew there wasn't a chance in hell I would lose unless something broke, but crazyer stuff has happened, to me, then I'd be out about $7,000. That would be bad.

Where is west union anywhay?
