GIVE ME UR HONEST OPINION NO JOKES JUST OPINIONS, BANSHEE RAPTOR OR YFZ450, im leaning towards 450, then raptor then banshee, i dont wanna have to rely on a 2 stroke, 450 is extremely fast but so is a raptor, but im thinking of getting a 450 and pipe it, whats ur opinion, btw those video thats guy posted a week or so ago of those dunes, why does that one raptor just barely make it up the hill, im so confused, is it weakly modded or what?

 

Banshee...evil, evil evil! Power to the 4-strokes!!! At times, you actually have to know how to ride to make it to the top of the hill...rather with a Banshee, where you just wind the sucker out to make it up. Next time your out at the dunes...look to see what all the hunnies are riding, they ride Banshee's, less work.
It's a total toss up between the YZF450 and the Raptor. I have the 2003 limited edition raptor, love it! Just put the LRD pipe and head on it this past weekend. It is sick fast now! I would wait till next year before buyin a 450, never want to buy a bike the first year it's produced. Heard there are some tranny issues with the 450, buyer beware.

 

no offense, but this is discussed like 3 times a day here.

I chose the raptor, biggest motor, reverse and electric start.

didn't need a race bike (450)

didn't need a dune bike (shee)

Raptor is the perfect ALL AROUND bike

 

all bikes are better than sitting on the sidelines watching buy the one that feels the best to you its your a$$ on when you get hurt
