stock is a whole different story when talking about a banshee ,and racing in a straight line.a banshee is by far the easiest bike to extract hp from.one thousand dollars into a stock piped banshee and nothing.AND I KNOW NOTHING will touch it.A GRAND INTO A THUMPER AND YOU GOT A NICE TRAIL BIKE.with a 500 dollar port job, reeds, carbs and the right pipes a banshee is untouchable.
