Hey,

Would nebody happen to know the top speed and hp for Blaster, Banshee, Warrior, and Raptor. I'm tryin to get a comparison so I can choose a quad for my first purchase. Thanx[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

 

Blaster 54
Warrior 56
Banshee 72
Raptor 70

I am sure there will be some descrepancies and differences of an opinion but this will give you a general idea. Please note each of these can be made faster. Two strokes tend to respond to mods better and are a bit less expensive to hop up. I had a blaster with Porting, Pipe, Carb and Head Mod (110 Octance and advanced timing and it would outrun a Warrior and 400EX. I would say it depends on your age, size and skill level, you don't want to be in over your head purchasing too much bike. Both the Raptor and Banshee are extremely fast machines. I hope this helps.

 

blaster: 54-56
warrior: 58-63
banshee: 76-78
raptor : 77-79

I varied the speeds b/c of wind, weight, suface and temp. Once again there will be a few people who dissagree and what not, but those are preety durn close to what you will expect.

 

I own all 3, havent really done any formal speed runs on the Blaster and Raptor but the Warrior pulled 63mph on my GPS. The Raptor can pass the Warrior easily and the Warrior can pass the Blaster easily. So basically no suprises. Fastest to slowest is obvious.... Raptor, Warrior, Blaster. The Blaster feels faster than the Warrior due to it's size and is alot of fun for the money, but will flat tire you out compared to the heavier Warrior which in comparison feels like a tank. The Raptor is way more fun but costs significantly more than the others. If it's your first machine buy a nice used Blaster for under $1500 and learn to ride it well. When you transition to a more expensive quad you wont trash it.
