vernon i will race your 300ex anyday. My old blaster would beat your 300ex. One of the most embrassing things I have ever seen is a grown man riding a 300ex. i felt sorry for the dude but serious you should think about getting the old honda 70 3-wheeler...the thing rips.

Hey now, go easy on the 300ex, I just bought one for my gf. I wanted to get the 250ex, but was afraid it would be too much for her. 300ex's aren't THAT slow, are they? I haven't ridden many, and never have rode a new STOCK one.(my gf's hasn't come in yet, she had to have yellow!)

Lets see kybanshee, what is the title of this? Banshee problem and cant figure it out? It is obvious that your banshee is not only slow but also unreliable. Youve even had to stoop so low as to throw off on 300ex's. Whats next, the slow, cheaply made Polaris??? You might beat a 300ex, but it will have the last laugh as it catches back up to your broke down screamin two stroke. All banshee owners know that 400ex's and 2000 yamaha grizzlies are forces to be reckoned with. Id say if I raced you on a grizzly, it would be close. what do you think?

hey Vernon lay off the polaris. They use to have relability problems but I think most of the problems have been out of them. The problem with my Banshee wasnt the machines fault if you read my post. bigfordw..the 300ex is a good WOMANS atv so dont worry about it. vernon since you brought up realibilty problems how bout those belts on the 2000 girzzly which slip if you get water in it...must suck. Later.

binfordw, im from evansville. kybanshee, the only reason my grizzly had belt problems was cause of going through mud holes no other 4X4's would dare to enter. I bet your banshee couldnt keep up with the cheap, slow mojave polaris. Gee, wonder why 2-strokes arent in production anymore besides the banshee? Could it be that theyre slow and unreliable? Seems to me that if your banshee is all that its cracked up to be, everyone one would want the mighty banshee.

I never said I was a FAN of anything.. I did purchase a '02 300ex for my gf, but I made this decision because it is mildly sporty and has hondas proven reliability. Should I have gotten my gf a Banshee? Umm, no, I really don't think the performance gains/ compared to the higher maintenance is necessary. (besides that, I want to be faster than her!) Why didn't I purchase a Banshee? Main reason is Im no fan of Yami's. I also thought they cost most than they did, until my buddy picked a shee as his new ride, which is another reason, I don't want to ride the same quad.. ( we can always trade, right?). I have spent quite a few hours on the 400ex that my 'shee riding buddy's girlfriend now rides, and I can say its no slouch. But you just can't compare it to a banshee. I also want to say that the 400 is no girls quad, it'll really fly, but its what she wanted.... Saying a Banshee is slow is just downright retarded, everybody knows better.. (btw, no-offense intended)
