I think i am going to go with the banshee. you all had good comments, and there is a ton of newer banshees for sale because a lot of people want the raptor. plus i can find a banshee for much cheaper than a 400. I cant wait to get it and put a nice 370 long rod kit on it and smoke some new guys on there over rated raptors.

 

If you like jumpin than get a 400ex. They fly and land like you've been doin it for years. I have jumped both and I jump very high, and nothing compares to the 400ex. If you like two stroke roosting, noise, and power, than get a banshee.!!!

 

Get the banshee... I own both and the 400EX hardly ever leaves the garage since I brought the banshee home. If you love raw power the banshee will make you very happy ; )

 

I was in your spot a few months ago. I was on my way to pick up and EX, and i found my 97 banshee for the same price as a 98 300ex. I got the banshee.. I am sooooo happy with my choice.. you will not regret it!! Buy they Banshee!
