Tell your cousin that most of those claims are BS, there are of course a few people here that own a Banshee that can reach 95+ mph.He will need to at least get his Shee ported by someone who knows what he is doing preferably, then run something like 16-41 gearing.Gearing also depends on wich size tires he has on his Shee,unless he gets his Shee ported he will never be able to pull the gears needed to hit 95mph no matter what.Well maybe going down a really long and steep hill...

My banshee is in the 95+ club. Its bascially all about gearing and *****. I have DG pipes (skoff all u want, Ill roost all over ya), Keihin pwk bored carbs ( 28- 30), "secret" port work done, 17 tooth front sprocket, and thats really all I can think of? But yeh, I just stay on the gas, and she reaches the 90 mph pretty quickly. Dont be worried, pick up a 16-17 tooth front sprocket, and he will be at 90+ soon.

Theres alot of shees around here doing 90+ mph, practically everyone has had theres over 100 but alot of mods. Also If he wants to do 95 put those carbs on ebay there way to big for his motor, then get 15-38 or 40 sprockets and port it, get smaller 28mm carbs, shave the head, +4 timing advance and he'll be in the 100's. With all that power the sprockets wont affect the overall pull and itll rip his arms off.
