There is no comparison. My banshee absolutely will tear my 450 up in everything. Trails, Drag, Hillclimb.. Except for jumping. With the mods and gearing that I have, it runs awesome. Got a low end port with the top end add ons; 33mm carbs, T-5s, gearing. It took me a while to figure out how to make it run the way I wanted it to. At first, for gearing I tried, 12/41, 13/41, 14/41, 14/41, 16/41, 17/41 and now Im running 16/44. I wasnt real happy with the port at first, but then when I started using the higher gearing, is when I really fell in love with the power. If ur close enough, come on to good ol st joe and you can have a test ride. I dont think anyone would be disappointed on how my bike runs.
