As far a Banshee compared to a Rappy or YFZ450, it really depends on what type of riding you are doing. I still think 2-stokes are the most fun quads and bikes to play on, but the current 4-strokes are better performers and not because they have more HP, just because you can actually use all of their HP.

So what do you guys think i should get a Banshee or a YFZ450?
Which ever one i get i would put pipes on and modify the airbox. I have 50 plus anchors of land to rid on most are wide open and some wooded. I've had the top end of a banshee open before to replace the rings and pistions 4 strokes i know nothing about the motor.
Wish i could just get both [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
Are 4 strokes the same like when you add pipes you have to change the jetting like on a banshee?

What happened to 2 strokes? I will tell you what happened, the 2 strokes were so good, with cheaper rebuilds and all that the dealers knew that the 4 strokes were much more costly that the dealers made more $$ from them that the dealers only wanted to sell them. JK probably partly true. The frekin tree huggers wanted to ban them because they made to much poultion or somthing like that.
