Default friend says this is faster

my friend said his banshee with just toomey pipes on it smoked a yfz with pipe and filter. i dont believe it. i know banshees are fast but wouldnt a yfz be faster with the pipe and filter. unless the guys jetting was wrong then i can really believe the yfz got beat.

I say "A" YFZ will win . HAHA

quicker probably but faster no. Banshee has a higher top speed especally with Toomey's. The 450 might get to top speed first but the shee will pass it on top because it can go faster. By a couple MPH.

I could see it happen, a yfz450 near a big riding area where i live was racing, and could beat everyone off the line, but couldn't hang with any of the raptors or shees on top end.

My cousin has an 01 shee with fmf pipes, boost bottle, and an otherwise stock engine.

I have seen him put away more than a few piped yfz's. That said, he is a good rider. Most that he runs against seem to know what they are doing too, but who knows.

Just wanted to chime in and say that it was very possible, but on a rider basis. Most of our races are done uphill in sand with paddles, so a flat out drag may be a different story.
