Bombardier DS650 vs. Banshee
#61
Oh no, a 350x can beat my quadzilla. I have owned a 350x and still own a atc 250r. I have beat stock banshee's with my atc 250r with a pipe. My 250 atc falls far behind my LT500R, whats next 300exs killing my 500R...Right. I hope I can hide from you venemous and your BAD 89 banshee.
Get a life and get some horsepower, you look sad.

Why all the bashing, give bombardier the credit they warrant, I am diehard yamaha till my grave, but, I think its great a new company in the atv market is stepping up to bat, this is what needs to happen for atving to become an activity of the future and not just a past time that we tell our grandkids about.

Dominator the only way your zilla could beat a Banshee is if the banshee wasn't started yet or the banshee was stock and your zilla wasn't. I've heard too many times of how slow quadzilla were compared to banshees and a few other quads. I've seen some banshees smoke quadzilla as well. I don't believe I would ever say a 300EX could beat a quadzilla or much else for that matter other than some of the slower youth quads. One more thing, I never said my banshee was bad since it is basically stock for now besides a few mods but I don't even have any aftermarket pipes. But it's bad enough to take your zilla any day. Just to show you I'm a sport I'll give you a quad length in the 1/8 mile. Sound good.

Venomous,
Interesting, My moneys on the QuadZilla. No offense, but the QuadZilla usually beats a Banshee in most races ive seen. Not to mention climb out of some dunes a banshee would not dare go. And a 350x Trike? Come on, you must be joking. Id like to meet the rider of the Quadzilla and give him a few pointers on dragracing.
Thats just how I see it.

My quadzilla is sadly not stock, or I would take you up on your offer...but it just wouldnt be fair. I've already beaten banshees on my atc 250r..everyone here knows it can happen...I'm over it, been there done that...i know exactly how fast they are.
I really like banshee's by the way, I love the sound of the engine with pipes, love the high rpm's of the motor, there fast enough to get anybody in trouble quick....there great, but it seems the owners are the problem. I've been around too long to be intimidated.
When I was in the market for a new racer to replace my atc 250r, I really wanted to get a banshee......but it seems everyone has them and your just as good as everyone else. If you dont want to put alot of cash in the motor and want to be very competitive with a banshee...the quadzilla is your quad. There was no other option for me.
87 LT500R
.60 over weisco
FMF gold pipe and silencer
FMF ram valve
mild porting (S. hills)
Holeshots on 4 corners
85 atc 250r
.40 over weisco
Terrible pre-owner home porting job (huge)
Answer silencer and pipe
bald tires, worn out axle bearings
sporting a bad chain with 4 master links
riding on worn out sprokets missing teeth

Bansheekiller if you would have taken the time to read the posts you would already know that I have stated at least once that EX's tear Banshees up in the woods at least stock versus stock.

i think it is so funny they are saying that the ds650 will beat the banshee and it will be the king of the track, but i got new for them the ds is a 4 stroke and my banshee is a 2 stroke, im not worried about it beating my banshee , all i have to do is go into a diff class at the track and i dont have to worry about the ds

Well at least when you buy a Banshee or anything Yamaha you know what you are getting and how it holds up. Can you do that with the Sand-Doo, I don't think so. They're sea doo's aren't even reliable so why does everyone think that this is going to be any different. The Sand-Doo might have more travel in the suspension but it ought to since it's clearly taller than any ATV I've ever seen stock(even 4x4's with lift). I think the tests should be done with a die hard fan of each quad behind the handlebars of their chosen quads, then the heat is on. DW clearly doesn't give a damn about a good test, only to give extra credit to whatever new comes out. I remember the all the hype about the 400EX supposedly being a faster and more powerful quad than the Banshee and better than it at all aspects. Does anyone in their right mind believe this now.
