The banshee was cool. But we all wanted to ride on the forbidden Suzuki quadzilla.. lol Stories were told around many ATVs back in the 90's about the Suzuki 500 quadracer. It was like a mythological creature that vanished out of production. Of course people back then said it was too dangerous for a production ATV. This coming from a generation who rode three wheelers and Honda fat cats.🤣 And yes kids, before the Honda Odyssey and Honda Pilot cars we knew them as badass go-carts and dune buggies lol.
@@Robmancan1987Facts bro. Ahh the Fat cat the first thing I ever wiped out on🤣🤣 I would love to own a as close to factory Odyssey. Anyone reading this comment and has one that wouldn't they would be willing to sell please hit me up!
I had an 87' Banshee back in the 1990's when I was a teenager, back then only competition was the Quadzilla 500. Loved that quad the sound, the speed. But after I got a Warrior 350 a few later I enjoyed the better fuel economy and being able to putt around. Guess I got "old" in my 20's lol
@@aurah8245 They are not slow as shit! They are slower but definitely more reliable when you drive them stock! They still kick almost anythings ass stock
Can't wait to get my Banshee from the shop. Getting a 4 mil build done, getting it ported, rejetted and getting some small bore Shearer Infeames put on it. Should definitely wake it up.
A banshee is a twin cylinder which means its max power is that of the 2 cylinders combined as one, Idiots need to wake up thinking there 4 wheeler is going to beat a banshee head to head with CCs.
🤣🤣🤣 I'm glad you feel that way! Because when we put it up against Megatron we did pull, after pull, after pull, and then hit the pavement which changed the narrative! 😁🤫
@@jacobthralow9991 yeah t5s are that all around good pipe. More for bottem to mid. I like shearers and cpi much more peal power but t5s are much better than fmf
Any kind of racing pipes are 10 times better than the factory Banshee pipes and there isn’t anything wrong with a Raptor but the 700 is just a big number
Haha! I love how you left us wanting more! Lollol That banshee sho nuff spanked the stock Raptor! I definitely think it's gone be some what different against the big 3 tho! I was reading where a few ppl said the pipes on the shee wakes it up a bit! I'm willing to believe that!

@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL ya know what! after watching this again after watching the shee and Megatron, I'm still baffled at how much top end speed Megatron picked up with the big three and you haven't touched the gearing! Pretty sick! I guess the power peaks off on the top end with a stock Raptor cuz its like the shee just walked away on the top end but didn't with Megatron!
See that's more like it!!! Big difference compared to the other vid I commented on. That other shee needs some love but that's a beast you in this vid. Awesome bro
Haha! Thanks brother!! 🤘 Yeah I knew it felt as if something wasn't right with that other Banshee but then again I wasn't sure if the modern-day Raptors were just indeed that much faster than a stock Banshee and it had been so long since I've been on a stock Banshee that I just wasn't able to really tell whether it was down on power or not.
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL you couldn’t pay me enough $ to sell my shee and get a raptor or any other quad. Quads are like women in bed if they ain’t screaming the don’t like it lmao. Keep it up bro great channel
The race I want to see is a ported banshee vs a big 3 raptor 700 with a cam, they make around the same power so I’m curious about that one. A big 3 raptor should beat a piped, filter, jetted, advanced timing banshee since it makes more power and torque. As far as this race, pipes on a banshee really wake it up, so I’m not entirely surprised it won against a bone stock raptor, mod for mod though I think the raptor wins. Like the banshee, the raptor comes pretty restricted from the factory as well, mods really wake it up.
I appreciate you taking the time to respond! 👍 So I'm not sure if I'll ever end up porting this Banshee. But I do see in the near future placing a set of cams on the Raptor 😁 Even possibly going as far as a throttle body setup. If I don't end up porting this Banshee then I plan to buy a second Banshee that I go all out on. So you may not see that race anytime soon but it's a possibility eventually I'll have two quads with that set up and then I'll have a race video out for you! 🤘😎
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL haha yeah I hear you man, just a bunch of theoretical races that I had in mind. Eric Friend from empire industries built my 421 cub, but he mostly does exhaust systems for 4 strokes now, I believe he has a throttle body that he just came out with for the raptor 700, might be worth looking into for the future.
Funny how a set of pipes on a 2 stroke makes a huge difference over stock. I put the whoppin on stock banshees all the time, and a lot of slightly modded as well with an 06 Raptor 700. Nothing like the Raptor for ride, handling and torque. Except maybe a moded LTR.
I agree they add a tremendous amount of power for a one item bolt-on. I didn't at all mean to undermine the modification by saying that it was "only piped" more or less what I was getting at was that it wasn't modified any further as far as intake, jetting, porting, etc.

I actually expected the 700 to win, if you could get that banshee to really hook down low or maybe even do it on the pavement I think it would be even faster. I’m interested in how it does against big 3, with that being said your 700rs tires are really bald so it’ll be up to weigh and power with next videos race can’t wait 😁
Hey brother! 🤘😎 What you said is interesting because when the rest of the video comes out it'll answer a lot of your questions! 😁🤫 I appreciate your support brother!
I have tossed around the idea but I'm having a difficult time coming up with a design. Would you be satisfied with just the word QUADNATION or would you prefer a symbol of some sort?
You're not joking!!! I can't wait to line it up against a TRX! Although the TRX was a hit or miss as to whether it would beat my stock Raptor so with that being said since the Banshee takes the win here against a stock Raptor I'd have to say the Banshee has it 💪😎
My brother jus picked up a raptor 660 an now I got the itch for banshee always have wanted one grew up chasing my uncle on one with my yz85 the time has come let the hunt begin
I have an 07 Polaris outlaw. I’ve yet to ride any wheeler or see any wheeler that can beat it. It’s stock but really hauls in all 5 gears. You should see if you can race one of those. Ive always heard the outlaw is the fastest production quad ever made besides the banshee. Would be an amazing race!
No doubt, that would be an amazing race! I Have no experience on an Outlaw but I have been on a Polaris Predator and those are quick! I don't know when I'll be up against an Outlaw, if ever, but I may be bringing a Polaris Predator to the channel soon! And you already know, if we bring a Predator to the channel, we will be racing it! 💪😁🤘
your quad would win the only reason the banshee won in this vid aswell is bc the rider difference that raptor should of pulled away from him in the higher gears too because it has more hp and more torque and the polaris makes the same amount of hp that the raptor makes
Hopefully on the next vid you guys also switch quads Pretty easy to notice your buddy is not as skilled as you are with riding Hes shifting way to late and just bouncing off the rev limiter 😩 But that banshee is a sweet machine!
That face though "😩"... 😂😂😂 He normally does a whole lot better than that. In fact, I think he had some better runs on his quad, the grey Raptor. I think he either just wasn't used to the extra power on Megatron where it revs up much more quickly through the gears or he was just enjoying the awesome sound of the exhaust bouncing off that rev limiter lol.... We ended up switching quads during the race with Megatron! 😁
raptor might be more powerful but its a slouch in stock form. the banshee was designed with racing in mind from the get go. very few quads can beat it till this day. it kills me that they stopped building it
Love the video I’m gonna say rider skill comes into play here rappies make great torque but not when it’s bouncing off the rev limiter. Or Mayb that shee is just super mint and runs really well either way I’m in for the next vid.
I will say he's a very capable rider and our skill set I would say is very close to the same, however, on the first drag he was throttle happy for whatever reason and definitely lost some momentum forward by bouncing off the rev limiter for that amount of time. Which ultimately gave me the cutting edge advantage shortly after whole shot.
I'm not really sure how to respond to this because it would be easy for me to say thanks but at the same token I want you to live this dream too so instead of saying thanks I want to tell you that you're totally capable of turning this dream into reality. Work hard and put your mind to it and you'll be living the same dream my brother! I wish you nothing but the best in life! 😎👍
The Banshee is a unique ride exodus and can offer a boat from the past, but the Raptor is far more powerful and reliable. I would gowoth a 700 or a 660 bc of the fuel delivery being fuel injection. Also, I don't care for the 5 valve system that the 660 is equipped with.
ello quadnation im new to dirt bikes/pit bikes so sorry in advance Lol. Im intrested in getting the apollo for my first bike, what oil and gas do you use? Thank you!
Hey! Thanks for reaching out and considering my opinion! 👍 I use 93 octane with all my machines but 87 is also sufficient. 93 burns slower so it helps with eliminating predetination and burns cleaner. As far as oil, I use oil that is labeled "motorcycle oil" only due to wet sumps which is where the engine in a transmission shares the same oil. If you don't use designated motorcycle oil it will contain detergents that will cause your clutch to slip. 10W-40 is the weight that I use. I hope this helps.
Well, pipe is everything on a 2 stroke, then add port and carb.... Keep in mind, the raptor has a 5th gear limiter, you can really see the banshee pull when the raptor gets there. I think a totally stock banshee would get beat to 300ft but eventually beat the raptor on the top end (due to the 5th gear limiter). I think the 3 mod would beat it if you removed the limiter. I have a 3 mod with the limiter removed and I have beat a ton of shees at the dunes. I also beat most stock and modded raptors just because I keep pulling in 5th.
I have a slightly modded Yamaha raptor a plus 3mm intake valve and plus 2mm exhaust valves stage 3 cam plus 5mm stroker crank 105.5mm piston and EFI controller freed up the exhaust system and air intake plus few other things. At 75mph in 4th gear I can pull it up then shift in 5th and it's stupid fast
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL not too far from Levi la'valli, I live inbeween Polaris industries and arctic cat in northern Minnesota. But I ride Yamaha, my daughter rides a modded Yamaha blaster, I did a port n polish and increased the compression to the limits for pump gas also put a 34mm carb and throttle body air intake plus few other things. It tops out at over 70mph she absolutely loves riding, I also machined it to accept a YZ 250cc 2-stroke power reed cage, so the little blaster moves better than most.... 😉 my daughter will be 19 this may. Fourtown grygla sportsman club is located by where we ride, I also have went to the iron range and ride with my army buddy's . But as with life getting hard to find time it seems, as years go by.
How much do you know about the Honda 700xx cuz I just got one and it's running too rich I can smell it in the spark plugs black I made sure the Gap was right so that means it's getting too much fuel and not enough air but there's no adjustments on it if I ride it without the air box lid on it has a lot more power and bogs less
Hummm..... That's very difficult. I really love the feeling of the onset of the powerband. I also love the sound of the Banshee. But the Raptor has tons of power at any point through the RPM range and has the ability to shoot bada$$ flames 🔥🔥🔥 I think if both quads were being made today I would prefer the Raptor over the Banshee. However, being that the Banshee is no longer made and is now a vintage machine, I prefer the Banshee. Either way these are definitely my two top quads and I've been on many many quads.
Pipes are a huge help for the banshee so it is not stock. If you put pipes on the raptor then it's a different race. Plus the guy in the raptor looks to have at least 50lbs on the banshee rider.
I agree that the Banshee had a weight advantage however I emphasize that it was just piped as that is a relatively easy mod for anyone to do and I wanted to emphasize on that as this was the only mod and no motor work had been done.
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL thanks for the reply. Just piped is a fairly big upgrade to a stock machine. A stock raptor is completely strangled. A pipe on a raptor creates different machine altogether. Also add an intake kit with the airbox lid off and the raptor is unrecognizable from stock. I own both machines and the banshee stock loses to a stock raptor with equal riders and weight. That's been proven time and again. After upgrading the machines it can never be an apple to apples comparison. Soil and tires can make all the difference too. Stock vs stock on generally any surface and the raptor wins.
The Banshee is a little bit cheaper as the Raptor is about $10,000 where you can buy a good mint condition Banshee for about $7 or 8,000. However, it is easier to purchase a Raptor as you can finance it whereas with the Banshee you'll need $7-8K on hand.
Wow!! The banshee is pretty fast 🔥 No lie I though the Raptor was going to win towards the end. When I race I’m normally in second gear, is the only benefit of that keeping your front end down?
Thanks brother! 💪💪 Yeah she's a beast for sure! I like to launch in second also as it does help accelerate your momentum forward as you don't have to shift half a second after you dump the clutch in first lol. But he was dead set on launching in first so I went with it lol.
I believe you're right! They still Have about 80% tread but the rubber is really hard and doesn't flex as much as it should in the dirt. So new tires would definitely grab the dirt better.
I owned both and my raptors would eat my banshee except in the sand or low traction spots then the light weight was an advantage like racing on dirt! Raptor has balder tires and more weight to get moving! Plus it’s a torque monster so you’re not allowing it to open up at all. Put it on concrete start in second rev it to the limiter and dump the clutch and you should smoke the banshee. 37hp vs 45hp not to mention twice as much toque! Like 35lbs to 18lbs no way it wins without the raptor being clapped out or something!
Its time to mod the banshee lol I knew it would beat the stock Raptor but I believe your Raptor will take the win but not by much. 2stroke nation lol 😆 😂 🤣 😄
Man the new raptor plastics are ugly good God I loved the 660s more then the 700s also loved the kfx700 just for the simple fact there get on and go quads no clutch to worry about also had a predator 500 Troy Lee edition loved that quad to all the good stuff they seem to discontinue not a 450 guy either so many production quads at one time between 250s 350s the 450s killed them off imo I like sport quads with a reverse gear did yard work with my raptor and warrior.
About 45 min. I'm definitely down to ride anytime brother! I plan to take a trip to Ocala very soon! Once I have the dates from Raptor Life I'll let you know! 😎🤘
High-flow pipes ain't getting you much without a good intake or pod filters I got a Raptor with the big 3 dual exhaust power commander fuel custom intake and 727 Stroker high-compression piston with a tune and my Banshee with v Force 4 reeds T5 pipes and pwk carburetors definitely has way more of a wow factor than the Raptor rappers about 58 to 60 horsepower the Banshees got to be all of that plus 50 lb lighter
If a 2 stroke beats a raptor it’s purely rider error. I know first hand raptors are the fastest quads ever made those that disagree haven’t been on one lol
I'm an 80s baby. Even though I've had several over the years the Banshee always has and always will be my favorite quad.

I think he either just wasn't used to the extra power on Megatron where it revs up much more quickly through the gears or he was just enjoying the awesome sound of the exhaust bouncing off that rev limiter lol.... We ended up switching quads during the race with Megatron! 😁
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL nice! Maybe next video teach him the way 🤣🤣🤣
I think was pretty much a equal being the Raptor is bone stock and the Banshee isn't. Still good video though. Live Fast and Ride Smooth 🤙🏻👍🏻
Thanks! I appreciate you!
raptor might be more powerful but its a slouch in stock form. the banshee was designed with racing in mind from the get go. very few quads can beat it till this day. it kills me that they stopped building it
I love that banshee man so awesome 👌!!!
Thanks brother! 🤘😎
Love the video I’m gonna say rider skill comes into play here rappies make great torque but not when it’s bouncing off the rev limiter. Or Mayb that shee is just super mint and runs really well either way I’m in for the next vid.
I will say he's a very capable rider and our skill set I would say is very close to the same, however, on the first drag he was throttle happy for whatever reason and definitely lost some momentum forward by bouncing off the rev limiter for that amount of time. Which ultimately gave me the cutting edge advantage shortly after whole shot.
That is cool runs 💪🏻💪🏻
Thanks brother! Glad you liked it! 💪😎
your living my dream
I'm not really sure how to respond to this because it would be easy for me to say thanks but at the same token I want you to live this dream too so instead of saying thanks I want to tell you that you're totally capable of turning this dream into reality. Work hard and put your mind to it and you'll be living the same dream my brother! I wish you nothing but the best in life! 😎👍
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL Thanks a lot bro🤟🤟stay safe
Man you even have stock banshee tires on that.. theyre worth some money now
Yeah lol crazy huh!
Sounds like the idle hanging the air screw needs to be screwed in probably a half turn
Thank you!
I’ve had a 350 warrior for a while now I’m thinking about upgrading too a banshe or raptor 660/700 which one should I get?
The Banshee is a unique ride exodus and can offer a boat from the past, but the Raptor is far more powerful and reliable. I would gowoth a 700 or a 660 bc of the fuel delivery being fuel injection. Also, I don't care for the 5 valve system that the 660 is equipped with.
Waiting for video of Last race👍🔥🔥🙏
I'll try not to hold out to long! Lol 😎🤘
ello quadnation im new to dirt bikes/pit bikes so sorry in advance Lol. Im intrested in getting the apollo for my first bike, what oil and gas do you use? Thank you!
Hey! Thanks for reaching out and considering my opinion! 👍 I use 93 octane with all my machines but 87 is also sufficient. 93 burns slower so it helps with eliminating predetination and burns cleaner. As far as oil, I use oil that is labeled "motorcycle oil" only due to wet sumps which is where the engine in a transmission shares the same oil. If you don't use designated motorcycle oil it will contain detergents that will cause your clutch to slip. 10W-40 is the weight that I use. I hope this helps.
Well, pipe is everything on a 2 stroke, then add port and carb....
Keep in mind, the raptor has a 5th gear limiter, you can really see the banshee pull when the raptor gets there.
I think a totally stock banshee would get beat to 300ft but eventually beat the raptor on the top end (due to the 5th gear limiter).
I think the 3 mod would beat it if you removed the limiter.
I have a 3 mod with the limiter removed and I have beat a ton of shees at the dunes. I also beat most stock and modded raptors just because I keep pulling in 5th.
What if they were both fully upgraded? Which one wins then?
I have a slightly modded Yamaha raptor a plus 3mm intake valve and plus 2mm exhaust valves stage 3 cam plus 5mm stroker crank 105.5mm piston and EFI controller freed up the exhaust system and air intake plus few other things. At 75mph in 4th gear I can pull it up then shift in 5th and it's stupid fast
That's wild!! I would love to race you sometime! 🦾🦾
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL not too far from Levi la'valli, I live inbeween Polaris industries and arctic cat in northern Minnesota. But I ride Yamaha, my daughter rides a modded Yamaha blaster, I did a port n polish and increased the compression to the limits for pump gas also put a 34mm carb and throttle body air intake plus few other things. It tops out at over 70mph she absolutely loves riding, I also machined it to accept a YZ 250cc 2-stroke power reed cage, so the little blaster moves better than most.... 😉 my daughter will be 19 this may. Fourtown grygla sportsman club is located by where we ride, I also have went to the iron range and ride with my army buddy's . But as with life getting hard to find time it seems, as years go by.
I would love to get one but I go on 6 hour long rides I dont think a two stroke would last very long, 700xx is awesome for me
I agree!
How much do you know about the Honda 700xx cuz I just got one and it's running too rich I can smell it in the spark plugs black I made sure the Gap was right so that means it's getting too much fuel and not enough air but there's no adjustments on it if I ride it without the air box lid on it has a lot more power and bogs less
Dope runs 🤙🏼
Thanks brother! 💪😎🤘
The guy on the raptor looks like he weighs 300lbs dude. Weight makes a massive difference.
Yes it does lol
What do you prefer banshee or r 700?
Hummm..... That's very difficult. I really love the feeling of the onset of the powerband. I also love the sound of the Banshee. But the Raptor has tons of power at any point through the RPM range and has the ability to shoot bada$$ flames 🔥🔥🔥 I think if both quads were being made today I would prefer the Raptor over the Banshee. However, being that the Banshee is no longer made and is now a vintage machine, I prefer the Banshee. Either way these are definitely my two top quads and I've been on many many quads.
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL if I wanna buy one of these what do you think is the best
Pipes are a huge help for the banshee so it is not stock. If you put pipes on the raptor then it's a different race. Plus the guy in the raptor looks to have at least 50lbs on the banshee rider.
I agree that the Banshee had a weight advantage however I emphasize that it was just piped as that is a relatively easy mod for anyone to do and I wanted to emphasize on that as this was the only mod and no motor work had been done.
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL thanks for the reply. Just piped is a fairly big upgrade to a stock machine. A stock raptor is completely strangled. A pipe on a raptor creates different machine altogether. Also add an intake kit with the airbox lid off and the raptor is unrecognizable from stock. I own both machines and the banshee stock loses to a stock raptor with equal riders and weight. That's been proven time and again. After upgrading the machines it can never be an apple to apples comparison. Soil and tires can make all the difference too. Stock vs stock on generally any surface and the raptor wins.
Which one should I buy or cheaper ? Banshee?
The Banshee is a little bit cheaper as the Raptor is about $10,000 where you can buy a good mint condition Banshee for about $7 or 8,000. However, it is easier to purchase a Raptor as you can finance it whereas with the Banshee you'll need $7-8K on hand.
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL want to buy one then ship it to my island so wondering if I could buy one y'all
i wanted to see how it turned out with the banshee vs rapor with big 3 when is part two being uploaded
Soon brother, hopefully tomorrow! 😎👍
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL Megatron smoked you!!! Huh 🤔 🧐
Switch tires and that first part of the race would have been a lot different.
Yeah I'm sure it would have been!
Wow!!
The banshee is pretty fast 🔥
No lie I though the Raptor was going to win towards the end.
When I race I’m normally in second gear, is the only benefit of that keeping your front end down?
Thanks brother! 💪💪 Yeah she's a beast for sure! I like to launch in second also as it does help accelerate your momentum forward as you don't have to shift half a second after you dump the clutch in first lol. But he was dead set on launching in first so I went with it lol.
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL gotcha!
Thanks bro I’ll see you soon!
My man had double the motor and still got gapped
Haha!! I guess the saying holds true two-stroke is basically twice as powerful 🤘😎
I will forever be a raptor guy
😁😁😁 me too!
awesome video but i think the intro is a tad too long and the video was a bit short. other than that im excited for the next one lol
Sorry to disappoint Raptor Man! I'll try harder to not disappoint! Don't miss the next video!
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL no no no you didn't disappoint me lol just constructive criticism is all 👍🏼
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL Generally speaking intros usually don’t last longer than 15 - 20 seconds or so.
Banshee for the W!!
Megatron is going to have hurt feelings lol
Banshee 💙💙
I love how people said that the raptor was faster
I have a 2001 with pipes being the only engine mod...shes never even been rebuilt
Nice!
If that banshee trades in that old worn out rubber for some fresh tires the embarrassment would be even greater !!!
I believe you're right! They still Have about 80% tread but the rubber is really hard and doesn't flex as much as it should in the dirt. So new tires would definitely grab the dirt better.
yeah those old ass tyres must be DRY AF
I owned both and my raptors would eat my banshee except in the sand or low traction spots then the light weight was an advantage like racing on dirt! Raptor has balder tires and more weight to get moving! Plus it’s a torque monster so you’re not allowing it to open up at all. Put it on concrete start in second rev it to the limiter and dump the clutch and you should smoke the banshee. 37hp vs 45hp not to mention twice as much toque! Like 35lbs to 18lbs no way it wins without the raptor being clapped out or something!
Where do you live? Those sand roads look awesome.
North Central Florida. The sand is great when you're riding but it can be annoying when you're bringing it into the house and vehicles lol.
Are those FMF Fatty pipes on the 350 Twin?
Yes! 😎
“Hey yoo nutsack 2 stroke wins all time every time!”
Most of the time! 🤘😎
The first run the raptor took off first to
Its time to mod the banshee lol I knew it would beat the stock Raptor but I believe your Raptor will take the win but not by much. 2stroke nation lol 😆 😂 🤣 😄
I'm not going to say too much but you are right on the money! 😁🤫
I love the banshee but other than drag races, speed runs, or dunes the Raptor is the far superior quad.
Yall need some dang tires on these machines lol
Lol
Were is that location?
Northeast Florida
How like that happened ???
I love ur vids
Thanks! I appreciate you 💯 Thanks for sharing your love for the channel! 🤘😎
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL yeah bro np
Let's go 🤙🏿🤙🏿🤙🏿
Yeah buddy! 💪😎🤘
dude on raptor looks at least 50lbs bigger than other dude
He was
i think the rear tires on that big 3 raptor is missing some rubber ;)
Get the banshee some good fresh tires and she will hurt some feelings
That's a true statement! Once on the pavement the traction for both quads changed the narrative.
Bet raptor one that last one lol ..IF NOT MINE WILL BLOW YOUR DOORS OFF!
Haha just look out for that next video! 😜
Man the new raptor plastics are ugly good God I loved the 660s more then the 700s also loved the kfx700 just for the simple fact there get on and go quads no clutch to worry about also had a predator 500 Troy Lee edition loved that quad to all the good stuff they seem to discontinue not a 450 guy either so many production quads at one time between 250s 350s the 450s killed them off imo I like sport quads with a reverse gear did yard work with my raptor and warrior.
This is just crazy
Love a banshee but hate how they sit
It's funny you say that because I'm conflicted I don't like how they sit but the seat is very comfortable lol
Raptor with big 3 will win everytime versus stock banshee
Yes sir!
I love my banshees . But ever one i raced with my raptor i smoked ever one . I know rider is half the battle
Oh yes! Rider is a huge input!
Banshee #1
Where you from? I Got a lt500 that would be a great race
Omg! I've been searching for one to race! Are you near Florida?
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL unfortunately not. I'm in the Philadelphia area
Yea we seen what that big 3 did lol
🤣🤣🤣
How far do you live from stark florida i want to come ride with you
About 45 min. I'm definitely down to ride anytime brother! I plan to take a trip to Ocala very soon! Once I have the dates from Raptor Life I'll let you know! 😎🤘
Are you down to ride this weekend saturday
I'ma get a raptor 700 now
High-flow pipes ain't getting you much without a good intake or pod filters I got a Raptor with the big 3 dual exhaust power commander fuel custom intake and 727 Stroker high-compression piston with a tune and my Banshee with v Force 4 reeds T5 pipes and pwk carburetors definitely has way more of a wow factor than the Raptor rappers about 58 to 60 horsepower the Banshees got to be all of that plus 50 lb lighter
Dope ass intro
Thanks brother!!! 🤘😎
2 stroke all day!!!
Yes sir!!! 💪💪💪
Before they race (and I’m watching at 2:09) my geuss is the raptor will win
Ok I geuss not
Holeshot but not top-end 🤘😁
Lol.. You're funny 🤣 That was a great content!
Why do banshee guys keep hopping they can take on a raptor bow you got the 450 and no reverse that comes in handy
I would think a pipe is a big deal I know it was on mine lol
Until I removed the FMF pipes I didn't realize how much power the aftermarket pipes gave it.
How like that I think the raptor is the faster because it's expensive
If a 2 stroke beats a raptor it’s purely rider error. I know first hand raptors are the fastest quads ever made those that disagree haven’t been on one lol
