JJFat, there's a key on your keyboard called "Caps Lock," please hit that key please!

 

Who said the Enforcer was race ready, and who said they could build a race ready quad. They just said that they could build a quad for $7000. I too agree that the enforcer and ds650 are ugly machines and would never buy one. Besides they have a good record of poor reliability and I don't see any changes yet.

The DS-650 has a poor reliability record? Who do you know that owns a DS? If i remember correctly the Banshee was not exactly recieved with open arms with its styling. I love the Banshee, but lets face it, its outdated. The DS 650's motor has been used by BMW(i think) and was a winner in the Parris-Decar rally. This motor has proven reliable and fast. I know it is hard to accept the fact that the Banshee may not be the king of speed anymore, but lets rejoice at the intro of some new quads and not condemn them just yet...

Let's just say that although I am not an really experienced in racing quads, thank God they put new quads on the market to either get a GOOD label or a BAD. Somebody has to receive a GOOD label as well as the BAD and as it seems, the enforcer doesn't look all that great off.

 

I think they look nice, it just those girly rainbow colors. We ain't no lepricaun riders, what we need all them fancy colors for? Those rear fenders look pretty wimpy to. If I fart to hard and hit a jump at the same time, they might crack! In other words, frames to wide, plastics to narrow. And what about those front fenders, we trin to fly like an eagle? We ain't no post office workers.

Roostking,,,,rejoice with the introduction of new quads???? If someone isn't praising a 400ex you cuss them till a fly won't land on 'em.
Anyway, when 4-wheel ATV action rode a Husaberg a couple months ago, everything that could break did. From the starter to the recoil rope, right down to the footpegs!!! They claimed it was the biggest piece of junk they ever rode. I think it looks kinda cool anyway

 

I always here people say that the Banshee is outdated. But you rarely hear anyone say the same thing about the 250R. Why is that?

The Banshee can be easily modified to be a very modern quad, why do you think so many companies are making parts for them.

Yea, but they Banshee is still in production, the trx250R stoped production in 89.

The 250R still dominates racing, after 10 years of it's absence the Banshee is still sub-par in the handling dept when compared. Maybe that has something to do with it.

How can a quad without a recoil rope break one? They come with backup kick starters.
