z400 vs banshee
Listen...Even if you pipe and jet a z, it isn't going to beat a stock banshee. Stock for stock, the only thing i would compare a banshee to is the YFZ, or the TRX. You throw good toomeys on a banshee, and a pipe on the z, and you'll be picking banshee roost out of your teeth for the next 2 weeks. Get real! I don't want to get into the actual mechanics of both bikes, but if you'd like me to, I will. The z is an awesome bike for its class...but that's all. I would compare a z to 400ex first...then to a raptor. But not the banshee. since it was MADE to compete w/ the 400ex. I'm the dumb one? Please...If you'd like to compare knowledge, enlighten me, great genius of the ATV..

U always think ur right dont u com'n in here startin **** as usual. A piped, filter and jetted Z will run with or beat a STOCK banshee. I never said a piped one. U must be really smart thinkin that the only competion is a 450, considering a modded raptor will spank a modded 450 any day. I hate to admit it, but nothing will touch a raptor or banshee when modded as far as drags go. So go wipe down ur precious yfz ur always defending. lol, thanx for the entertainment though.

lol thats what I'm saying...I think people get in way too many internet fights...
I'm not arguing, im just spitting the facts...If you would like to believe that a z400 can take a banshee, be my guest...just don't be dissappointed when you actually have to back yourself up at the dunes...
And regarding the raptor comment, I would much rather have a 400ex, or a z for that matter...the raptor, while it's a good, strong bike, isn't much compared to one of the new 450s...with equal mods, there just isn't a comparison..The design of the raptor isn't much to my liking. and for dragging, id much rather drag a banshee than a raptor...you can get 100+ hp out of a stroker banshee, without even up'ing the cc's...yes...a 350cc 100hp stroke banshee..but with general mods, a z won't outrun even a stock banshee...and with equal mods (which is what people SHOULD be comparing) you're done...thats just how it is. sorry to dissapoint...
and for the record...my precious little YFZ you badger will waste both your z400, and your 440ex in every possible way...not just on the drag strip
