I dont know how much Alba 370 motor kits go for. CT Racing did my motor work. I dont know what the difference between the two are. All that came on my Alba banshee when I got it was Toomey pipes, K&N filter, decals, And a set of wheel and tires. It is a pretty good deal even though you pay for shipping.

Yes banshees can. I have one and I have no problem on a track. It just takes a different riding style than say a R does. IF you are reallly into racing go ahead and buy a Banshee and if you really want to win every race have your head decked and run race gas, YOU THOUGHT R"S HAD LOW END wow if you do this mod then no one can touch you on a track (depending on your riding skill)

Do the head or slap on a coolhead with the right size domes for your need. If you are going to run race gas you will also want to advance your timming. Later

Maybe it's just a coincidence but I went to an MX Quad/Dirtbike race last week and the banshee's were all getting left in the dust by 3 400EX's, and also passed up by a 250R. They couldn't go over the whoops as fast as the R's and EX's. Although they did come close to passing them on the straightaway.
