I don't know anyone with a Banshee that I can take for a test drive, so take me on a "virtual test drive" if you can.

I made the mistake of riding my son's YZ 125 dirt bike, and I decided that I like that way high screaming two stroke power. So what do the power characteristics of a Banshee best compare to? Does the Banshee feel at all like a YZ 125 dirt bike, or a YZ 250 dirt bike, or is it just a mellowed down immitation? And if it is mellowed down in stock form, what would it take to get it up to the level I want? Thanks,

It's no mellowed down imitation. Put pipes, silencers, reeds, and jet it and it'll scream.
