well if you like pushing a machine to its limits and sliding the banshee is a mean machine. they slide very well since they have a low sence of gravity and if you have expereince you can control the throttle just enough to get some wheelspin and REALLY make a banshee slide. as to goin fast the banshee is a hauss and will really open up. the one thing i like a my banshee it i know it will open and i can make it open up really fast and you can really feal the power of a 2-stroke . dont think a 350 if not enough for you, the banshee is a 2-stroke which means a 350 2-stroke compared to a 350 4-stroke there is a HUGE difference the 2-stroke will smoke the 4 and leave it in the dust.

bottom line, the banshee has alot power and is just a very very fun machine to ride.

 

dat is wrong im 14 and im racing in a open class in PA w/ a 350cc air cooled 4-stroke limit and the maxxis 6-hr race has a 13-15 yr old 200cc+ race

 

well your parents or somebody must've signed for you somehow, cause i'm going off the AMA/District 5 rules on their website

 

yeah they do havfta sign for u but only fer the membership and yur set

 

Well first off, if your gonna race, NO Reverse, second if your gonna race theres no other choice than the YFZ, that thing is unstoppable.

 

The YFZ is awesome but i think you would be better off with the Z in the woods. Reverse sure is nice and the suspension is softer.

 

if ur racing u dont need reverse, if u got the cash then get the yfz450. im sure ull be able to handle it, jus take it easy until u do. if u dont then id say look into a 400ex. they handle great and arent as much power as the 450.

 

yeah but for his age it will b hard to find a class he can race in w/ a 400+ cc quad
