That is a bunch of poo. There are guys getting 400 hours out of the YFZ top eneds with nothing more than oil changes and valve adjustments.

all i no is 2 strokes are like imports, they go ning ning and make a bunch of noise i havent been on a yfz but my friend has a 450r and i love that thing.theres no replacement for displacement. sorry 2 strokers.
LMFAO...Man you really need to know what your talking about before you open your mouth..LOL

Now i know your going to come back with some dumb@ss come back but iv got to say somthing about this..And before you go running your mouth you need to know that alot of people on this fourm know me and know me well and i meet up with them from all around the us for the sanddrags...

Iv built some fast 4 strokes..And i have nuttin bad to say about them at all..But the king of the sanddrags is still the old banshee...For half the money you put into a 4 stroke a banshee will eat them up in 300 foot...thats a fact..

Now im not being mean or anything just wanted to say somthing before someone on here jump all over you about what you said...

i like 2 strokes... it was a joke im supprised it took that long for someone to say something. i just said that cause kickass210 was like why would u want a 2stroke and thinks hes all big and bad with his blaster. everyone and there brother has has banshee. banshees are like tampons, every ***** has one [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]. was gonna get a banshee but i ended up with my raptor. i was away at school and my gf was like theres a banshee for sale by my house and he wants 3500 for it. so i get my money, go over and it ends up bein a raptor 660 and i thought what the heck i never road one so i mights well see if i like it and i was hooked on it. i ended up gettin it for 3k with ramps (usless cause my trucks lifted) helmet, and an extra set of rear tires on some crome itp's. my raptor is starting to act like a 2 stroke tho [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]. we went riding yesterday and i swapped bikes iwth my friend for a lil bit and i noticed when he would get on it and pull the wheels off the ground it would shoot out a lil bit of blue smoke. now i no where some of my oil went to [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]. time for high comp piston, cams, & jets [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

you took a 660 raptor over a shee. hope you like working on it. id put my stock cylinder banshee up against any pipe ,jetted/programed yfz,700 rap.450r and lt450 at 300 ft . now trails,mx and gncc type riding yes a 4-strock is better. but strait line , nothing beats a banshee. i can take all the 4 stroke's listed above with basic mods. yes a 4 stroke with a big bore is pretty strong . but mods for a shee and mods for a 4-stoke are way diffrent in price range, and shee's have limitless possibilities.

which 450 to choose from???---- yfz (new model) or lt 450

i did respond...i asked if you had ever ridden a banshee.....you cant go and make all those statements you made without ever riding a 2 stroke apart from the blaster... im sure raptors are nice quads and all (never ridden one) .. if they are anything like piped yfz's then ill know what you are talkin about....

that is true. a banshee takes more skill to ride -even in stock form- than a raptor. raptors are good for torque and can respectively get it, but nothing screams like a banshee. totally different power delivery concepts.
