85 MPH is easily possible when modified but I don't know if it could pull that speed stock. I hit 82 MPH on mine with pipes and stock gearing and it would definately pull higher than stock gearing.

It's hard to say how fast a Banshee or any other machine will go with higher gearing because it takes more HP per MPH the faster ou go. For example because a 35 HP Banshee will go 75 MPH doesn't mean a 70 HP Banshee will go 150 MPH....

 

sticky....I have heard between 74-76, but I'm not sure if it's right or not.

 

This is off topic but i had j arms on my old trx 200 and could anyone explain the advantages of them??if there are any??I guess a arms must be better though cuz they are on almost every quad!

 

my banshee hits 90mph! no joke! but its not stock, a stock banshee goes about 80mph stock.

 

i can't believe a banshee goes 80 stock. i mean a quadzilla goes 79mph stock. i know a banshee isn't faster than a zilla (stock for stock)

 

yeah but i think magazines lie about there top speeds .

 

You think magazine's lie or you hope they are lying? I don't think they will do 80mph. I hear it is 72 mph. I know this kid that said his Honda FourTrax 300 4x4 was a 120 hp. I laughed so hard I was crying.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

first off did you ever ride a Banshee? if you did, you would think differently! ok magazines say banshees go about 70mph right, and say 300EXs go about 55mph, thats only 15mph, i raced a 300Ex and i killed it in 4th gear, and could keep right up with it in 3rd! And a banshee is a 350cc TWO STROKE TWIN CILENDER, while the 300EX is a 300cc FOUR STROKE that produces about 15hp, while the banshee is like 40hp, and i would think that a Banshee could go faster than just 15mph than a 300EX!

 

Thought you might want to know that my registartion says that my 300EX has 22.5 hp.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

We Verified my friends Banshee at 73mph on blacktop with a GPS. It has a K&N filter, but that's it. Yes, I have ridden several Banshee's and don't believe they will go 80mph. Find a really steep hill get it wound out and pull in the clutch and maybe it will.
