joey1, your full of it sweetie pie! I race piped banshee's on my stock DS650 and run with them or beat them to 70mph on sand. With a pipe and carb I beat quite a few modified banshees at little sahara in OK. The raptor has about the same HP as the DS. I've never been beaten by a stock banshee and never will.

Couldnt tell you what has more or less top end, we raced a modified Banshee, a stock Raptor, and a DS 650 with pipe and carb, and the results were the same no matter who was on the bike, we raced at 100 yards and a quartermile, not really sure if the DS could pull the Raptor after that, when the end of the 1/4 mile came up the Raptor was out in front of the DS, the Raptor just pulls so much harder than the DS down low. Im just sharing my experiences with these bikes, take it for what you will! All I know for sure is the Banshee ate both of those bikes, even though the Banshee is built.

ok as for DS's racing at little sahara i'm there all the time and I have to practically beg them to race me and i've got a 400ex(rapter due any day)by the way the ds spanked me, it might have been you scooby this ds had a pipe and carb too but all the ds's want to do is watch, no offense but get out there and race somebody,who cares if you lose i do all the time but its the addrenaline rush at the start line that gets me hooked to go back and lose(i can beat some 400's mines got curtis sparks pipe,jet kit,filter,seems to run better than most 400's)anyway you in arlington,we ride at rocky ridge all the time not to much at flying p(too boring except for the track)give me a hollar when you get yours and we'll hook up and run em,have some fun, you can come too scooby and anyone else too, cool to meet new people, ya'll camp or go just for the day? anyway doesn't matter who wins or loses just so long as you have fun and don't get hurt,right!!! I like all 3 and 4 wheelers so if i put anybody down sorry......as long as your having fun!!!!
