Here's the deal guys: My buddy runs a Banshee. It is pretty fast I must say. I have sunk a few thousand bucks in the Scram to "maybe" get ahead. Until he adds about 200$ in mods...then it's bye bye again!

One funny thing is: His exhaust smells like strawberries!? Makes me hungry for toasts everytime we go riding.

Seriously though...maybe I will need a real sports quad next...Raptor or Banshee?

He should sell it to me and buy a bicycle. I'll have it running like a Banshee in a week. All that quad needs is a little TLC and an owner with some brains!

When we go to a sweet steep hill. I'll climb...and laugh at you, turning back down past half way.
200$ of mods...if the trails don't get better, I'm afraid I'll get more into it...but to make a bit more versatile. I think a tire change will be enough to stay ahead.

Both are good quads,but i sold my banshee for a raptor.I think it depends on the type of riding you do.I like to ride on motocross tracks and do lots of jumping,that's why i bought the raptor.The chassis is world's better than a banshee in my opinion.I do miss the top end rush of my banshee though.Buying my raptor for $5999.00 brand new didn't hurt either.

Hey Buddah,
Where here in Utah is there to MX. I only know of places that won't allow Quads?

There is a track called Hot Springs Raceway up in Ogden next to Smith & Edwards on the west side of the freeway.Contact John Wayment (801)774-5267,he should be able to answer your questions.The USRA has a race schedule where atv racing is allowed all over Utah.They run on the same track as the bikes do.Let,s hook up and go riding.My raptor is blue.
