Default blaster vs. banshee

i was wondering, which has better suspension and low end power. the blaster or banshee. i used to have a blaster and when i'd climb steep hills, it would bog out toward the top, but it would make it. i just want to know if the banshee has better susupension and low end power.

The banshee has a lot more power and torque as for suspension there isnt that much a difference

I have several of each bike. My whole family quads together. This is how I would compare the two bikes.

Blaster
Pros: Cheaper, lighter, easier to handle on tight trails, safer for younger riders,oil injection
Cons: low on power, sits higher/higher center of gravity,tips easier,harder to kick start,marginal for adult riders

Banshee
Pros: Incredible power and easy to make even faster, lower riding position,easier to kick start
lots of aftermarket accessories available
Cons: more expensive, must pre-mix fuel

As with any bike, it really depends on what type of riding you want to do. There are trade offs with any bike.
The Banshee is hard to beat in the sand.

A banshee is MUCH better than a blaster. Think about it..... 350cctwin vs 195cc single cylindar....hmmmmm wonder wich one has more power stock for stock ????? I do know of a blaster that can smoke banshees and they are far from stock and 450r's but this blaster has major motor work done to it.
