Default raptor vs shee

the only way your beating me is if you bore that shee out to a 415. lol speaking of boring out i was lookin thru dirt wheel and found this article about a banshee bored out to 500 and sumthin i think it was a 525 or sumthin like that but anyway, they let a couple of pro riders take it for a rip and both the riders came back and said it had way too much power, and both said they were scared of it. lol. thats pro riders sayin that, MUCH RESPECT to the 2 stroke kings, ALL HAIL THE BANSHEE. imagine hitting powerband in 3rd on a 525 banshee LMAO, must be ridiculous.

anyway have fun on your new ride.

this is the first update on the new banshee. i have now run 2 tanks of gas and it appears to have some great power. my 2 complaints are and they can be fixed easily are the throttle return sping is stiff as heck and after about 15 mins i get thumb and wrist fatigue. the other is , i have already boke the plastic heel guard support by putting my big foot in the wrong place. next week it is suppose to go back to the dealer for performance upgrades. i am a little excited about the new power i will have and just where it will be in the power band..thnx again for all the great performance tips i received from the forum.

Dude that Throttle is a Pain. mainly cause your pulling 2 slides. alot of guys switch out to the twist throttle but i got used to it. I ride it all day now without my thumb hurting. and I have no problem hitchiking now lol. and for the heel gaurd i would ditch them and get some good nerf bars. with or without heelguards. if you bought some works shocks you can have them Valved for your size. it will help your Handeling alot.
