Default Fastest Stock Quad??????

Hello,
First I'd like to ask where are you getting the Banshee has highest top speed? The Predator is rated at 76 mph. I can't speak for C-dales or Gas-Gas but that is faster than rest. (I am speaking without gearing changes.) I took a chance and sold 400 EX and Warrior to get one. It is extremely easy to go fast on without all the body english. The PRO steering system really works and has been proven on their snow mobiles. If you like walking and wheeling then the Z or the EX would be best bet. I prefer a Honda but friend has KFX and is extremely fun to ride. The predator suspension has to be dialed in and is not set right at factory but it is quite fun tweaking the ride you want. Corners like it is on rails and has 42HP at wheels out of the box. Chain makes noise( and quad does vibration) that my Honda did not. Also comes with braided brake lines, the Douglas rims and Razors stock. The 2 in width diffrence is awesome and I can see why people pay all the cash for the +2 A-arms. The good thing is I didnt have to. I can be described as almost anti-polaris up to a few days ago but the Predator has let me see the light. There is a comparison between the Glamis C-Dale and Predator on Sport-quad.com. It seems to be as close to be a true race-ready quad for @6000 that you can buy, noone is is close to the price.

They stopped building those in what 1989?
yea i want a 15+ year old quad that is not very reliable and maybe has a 2mph top speed advantage over the new generation


Dont be pissed because the old Ziller will tramp your expensive DS!

ps. Bone stock Zillas run 79-80 MPH, but its not about top speed I guess, its about how fast you get there[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

The C'dale tops out around 75mph and my GasGas in stock form blows it away. I'd guess the GasGas is around 80-85mph. If you need proof on the speed of the GasGas come watch me at the GNCC's or just as Cbus660 he has rode the GasGas and is playing on coming over sometime and riding both the Cannondale and GasGas.

before you post you should do your research correctly the banshee back in 1988 when three and four wheeler mag did the top speed test the shee topped out at 79.4 and the zilla 500 at 79.8 zilla being the fastest but the zilla is not in production any more so i guess the shee is the fastest !!! any problems with the speed results take it up with the nhra drag strip where they tested them!!!!further more i have a GPS also a modded shee a modded raptor and a modded 400 ex my friend has a ltz 400 and my other friend has a predator so i know what real time speed is all about! the shee in stock form will and does eat them all in top speed

Here you go something in print. Not rumor...you take it up with the mag if you don't like it. Banshees are not the fastest stock. I know real speed also if it was so fast why you modding it to try and keep up with the raptors,DS,C-Dales, and the predators...your poor stock Banshee just went another rung down the ladder.

P.S. Sorry I couldnt find anything from 1988...

Hey I found another one (again not from 1988) unfortunatley Banshee isnt top speed...could this be a conspiracy... http://www.atvriders.net/atvtopspeeds.htm
How about you do some research and show me where a stock Banshee is running over 75...
P.S. Read my quote...it is just for fun and for people like you.
