Default z400 vs banshee

Me and my buddy were out riding , he was on my piped warrior and iwas on my z400. we saw a dude on a banshee. we went and chased him down and i asked him to race but he said hw didnt liuke to race . i told him if i could take aride on it because i heard they were fast, so he let me it felt weird becuase there wass no power until it hit the midrange and then it would start roosting. i asked him if i could race my friend on my warrior so we lined them up. Warrior has a supertrapp pipe on it and banshee stock.We wrer even off the line and then i pulled him by about 3quad lengths which surprised me. i then asked my friend to drive the banshee and i would ride my z. we lined them up both machines stock Me 180 puonds my friend 140 pounds. I pulled the banshee in every single gear. the z really suprised me becuse i thught they were alot faster than that. i was actually going to get a banshee before the z but im glad i got the z becuase it pulls from bottom to top, without a dely in low rpm power the banshee didnt want to pull a wheely like my z does. me and my friend have been riding for about 7yrs. Are banshees overrated or what.

That doesn't sound right at all.....I don't think there's any race quad on the market that will pull a Banshee in EVERY gear with just a pipe and jet...it just doesn't sound right to me...
The z400 sounds like a nice bike...but at the end of the day, you're riding a suzuki...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
there are tons of z400 guys running around telling everyone that they can pull a banshee...And it just doesn't happen like that.
Do the math...the 400 is only 50cc's bigger than a banshee, and a banshee is a 2-stroke...
If you 'pulled the banshee in every gear,' then you should be able to pull one of the new 450's in every gear...which just isn't logical lol...it sounds like you had an awesome dream though [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

LOFL ^^

Ive ridden a Z400 and even though i would rather have a Z over my banshee, it just isnt as quick or fast as a banshee. I rode a Z400 with a Yoshimura Slip-on and it just didnt have the power i was expecting, that wouldnt keep me from getting one though.
