im planning on trading my 01 raptor for a 99 banshee "tuned" is this a smart idea or am i just a speed freak?...whats your opinion?

 

could you elaberate more on "tuned"

 

yeah its bored .20 over, cool head, renthal handle bars aftermarket exhaust swing arm, seat and graphics. but the only bad thing is it needs 4 new tires.

 

i think your raptor has just as many mods, and your thumper has better technology in its craftmenship, so i'd keep the thumper.

 

if you've got the runway to get that shee up to speed then do it...if not, your gonna miss the low end. on the other hand...tick tick tick...that my friend is the sound of the factory timebomb in your 01 tranny. that thing could go off any minute...then you won't have to worry about low or top end.

two great machines...a good problem to have.
