Default Raptor or Banshee?

I like the more useable power of the Raptor compared to the small powerband of the shee. If you are a two stroke junkie, the shee is for you. It kicks a$$ in the dunes. I ride all over, dunes, desert, mountains and am faster on the Raptor than the banshee. Both are fun and have great power, although the raptor in stock trim needs to breath better on intake and exhaust to realize its potential.

I owned both and the Raptor is faster on loose terrain due to the wheel spin of the 2stroke powerband, but once you feel that powerband your hooked like a hit of crack..................sold my Raptor with all it assessories just to get me fix, I love the hell out of my banshee a hole lot more than I ever did the Raptor and just can't get enough!

Raptor is a very nice machine especially for trail riding. However I'm hooked on the Shee's power!
