NO I AM NOT, BEEN RUNNING THEM FOR YEARS, BEEN A TECH FOR THEM FOR YEARS, BEEN SRVC MGR AT YAMAHA DEALERSHIP FOR YRS. JUST DONT LIKE PEOPLE RUNNING OFF AT THE MOUTH. I NEVER BAD MOUTH ANYONES QUAD, MAKE OR MODEL!! EACH TO THEIR OWN. RAPTOR AND BOMBARDIES ARE OVERARTED!! RAPTOR WITH E- SERIES PIPE IS LUCKY TO PULL FIFTH GEAR IN SOFT BEAN FIELD, NOT ALONE IN SAND.IT WILL NOT DO IT AND WILL PROVE IT IF ANYONE THINKS THEY HAVE HAVE THE $. ITS TOP SPEED IS 69MPH. DO THE MATH PEOPLE!
MAX RPM. + TOP GEAR RATIO + TIRE SIZE + 5,280FT (ONE MILE) IT IS MECHANICALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO EXCEED THIS LIMIT!!! DO THE FORMULA
THIS IS ALL CALCULATED WIHT NO WIND RESISTANCE.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS!?!

69mph you say? Then that would put your banshee at about say 65?
Get real, the Raptor is the real deal!! Just because the Banshee lost the speed title to ds650 and now it lost it to the Raptor everyone starts making up crap or excuses!! Get a life!!

The raptor does not have enough power to pull out its top gear in sand with sand tires on....that is a true statement. From the factory the Raptor, DS650, or the banshee will never beat a stock suzuki quadracer 500.

The top speed and most horsepower title never went anywhere since 1987 with the introduction of the LT500R.

Have any of you guys ever ridden at the dunes??? There is a reason that there are so many Banshees out there. I'm not going to putting dow peoples bikes, but it's not very common to see a Banshee lose to any of the mentioned bikes. The 500's don't stand a chance once things have been modified. The Raptor are very comfy, but can't even beat my wifes Modified 250.

I have rode my raptor at the dunes....... and was very happy with it. Maybe I got a good one but I can hang even with my friends 310r...... I have pics to prove it. It all depended on who got the best launch, who ever got a better start won, dead even start... dead even at the top of the hill..... oh well I just like riding, and if I only rode the dunes I prob would have shee BUT I also ride the mountains alot soo.... thats why I have a raptor
