Million dollar question....

What kind of riding do you do, and are you happy with the banshee now, at least in general.

Well my banshee is pretty quick, i have raced it a few times at local track, and i was planning on racing some more later this year. I also ride alot at home with few hills and i'm really lookin for something thats just plain out faster.

Well the banshee can be faster than the yfz will ever be with a heck of a lot less money.

But, you wont have nearly as good of an mx machine. The yfz's handling will easily make up for much if not all of the performance advantage a worked banshee can have and still be raceable.

It's really up to you. If mx is going to be important to you, you will be much better off with the yfz. If you just plan on playing on the track, you can have a lot faster banshee for less money.
