Thanks for all your helput now I am even more confused. Sent my Prairie into the dealer for service and he didn't have time to do it this weekend so he lent me a Brute Force 750. I know I am probably going to get reemed on this site for this but I am thinking of trading mine in and getting this bike instead of buying either sport bike. This thing makes some awesome power stock. Decisions, decisions.

Bunshee belong to the past... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]


lol j/king here! get the rappy and try something new!! you won't regret it... don't think the 2 cylinders can do a better job then a modern 4 stroke machine.... take the yfz for example... it smokes badly the shee stock for stock !!!

I would like to apologize for my brain fart yesterday when I said I was thinking of buying a BF instead of a sport quad. I must've been in love with the torque but I spent all day on it today and no way in hell would I substitute that beast for a sport quad. It handles like a wheelbarrow, diving in every corner, having to slow down to 30mph to take a long sweeping corner sucks. I am so beat up from riding that beast today. I had a Grizz and traded it in for these exact reasons. what was I thinking

back to the other dilemma....how does a raptor handle compared to the banshee. I like the low to the ground stance of the shee and I mostly trail ride with some sand pit riding.

See if the dealer will let you take them for a ride, then get the one that you like best

No they don't!! Quit sharing fake information, never heard of a raptor over heating easily. And if they do over heat, they are liqiud cooled, instead of air cooled like the banshee. I was riding my buddies banshee today and it feels to small, I didn't like the front suspension, It got me really tired, even though I was riding the stiff suspension of the YFZ.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
