Long before I bought my first banshee I had an atc 250r, K&N w/outerwear, FMF fatty, w/FMF powercore II silencer, bored .20 over, with a wiseco lightweight. Nobody came close until drags at the dunes. Several friends had banshees and they were lining up to race. Didn't matter, they'd get me through 4th then I'd pass them like they were standing still. Any make model year of 250r's are bad. I think they need to come back...maybe make an r twin...that'd be killer!!!
