Default top speed!

a bunch of us went riding today and my friend has a banshee with FMF gold which sound awsome for FMF
he has a trail tech spedo and it keeps the speed record he set it was like 80.2. and today we were all riding down the road one guy was on the left and the right and so on till the front. he went right up the middle of all of us on a twisty road and hit 81.7!!! . thats pretty good for a banshee that he doesnt race and is for trail riding. he said that he could go faster but the rain and the wind was holding him back a little

Why is the banshee so fast? I know its a 2 stroke, but Its only a 350. Does the twin cylinders really give it that much extra power? and if that was right, wouldnt the new 700 twins be able to do like over 100?

If you know its a 2 stroke, then why do you ask? Alltoys got up to 98 mph with an 800cc v twin prairie, until all hell broke loose. The 700 twin is a 4 stroke, big diff.
