A 350 and a 200, not a 250.

 

While I applaud Yamaha's continued production of the Banshee during the sport ATV dark ages we are only now emerging from don't expect them to create a new two-stroke either. In fact if the Raptor cannibalizes Banshee sales as bad as I expect I wouldn't expect any signifigant Banshee updates either. Wouldn't it be nice to see that motor in an all new longer, wider, lighter frame with current suspension and a new airbox and chain adjustment system?

 

there is something you can do monica.If your in school or college ya can get a petition and have all your friends and buds who really ride sign it.if a company gets enough names and interest they will build it.2 ya can build it yourself but not 2 many of us young guns have that kind of grande mucho cash sitting around.By the way its great to see a woman in the sport,I think thats so cool and sexy,well happy roosting see ya at the end of the trail PS the reason Honda and the other companies stopped making 2 stroke quads was back then in 88 89,Honda had alot of lawsuits and lawsuits carried up from those killer trikes,I guess honda and suzi got scared and figured we better get rid of these things before they sink our company.now i think its an emissions deal because we have too many happy tree huggers dictating what we do and say,where we ride cause that ted nugent missed shooting them last hunting trip in the woods,maybe they were all hiding,he does have a pretty mean get up.just kidding on that 1,however I stand clear we have alot of radicals on the 2 stroke emissions and emissions in general,I blame it on corporate america and if any 1 wants to know my reason ask and I will tell you.Dont want to insult to0 many white collar workers.

 

well not any bigger the banshee has the biggest frame since the LT500R the other update i agree with you
go big or go home!

 

All I want is a powervalve on my Banshee, like every dang dirtbike made, just not fair that quads are left out of the advancements. Where are all the powevalves, high/low speed shock adjustments, throttle position sensors, electronic ignitions, and so on and so on,,,,,just not fair that ATV's are the leading sellers in recreational vehicles and get the least factory spport and technology,,,I think its crap,,,,thats why my bike is 99% custom,,,,screw putting more money into companies that dont give a crap about me,,,,that goes for Honda, Yamaha, and all the rest. The only 2 bikes that are even close to being race ready are the Bashee and 250r, the Banshee hasnt had hardly any changes since its inception and the 250r is not even made anymore,,,whata bowl of you-know-what!!!!!

 

you are wise hahah i agree with you it really pisses me off to hear about all thses new goodie's and we get things like a quad with an xr400 engine in it i mean i like the 400ex but come on they could give us alot more whats up?

 

Honda would give more, but they can't. The xr400 is the only performance 400 they have and it performs like crap. 30 HP is sad compared to other 400 engines. Nobody is making a 2stroke because of the tree huggers.

 

i agree they could come out with a new engine 30 hp isn t bad really but the yz400f does 53 hp stock!!!!
