doesnt magazines in general only give stock bikes attention? If we talking about stock pipes, the banshee sucks.
and if you gotta add aftermarket stuff, anything can be faster. And with the newer 4 strokes chassis and better suspension, it's an overall better machine. Not all of people measure a 4 wheelers performance in a strait line.
Think of it this way. The more they talk bad about a banshee, the better it will be to spank some 4 stroke butt in a drag race
Now this fuel injection thing....id like to hear more about this. I wouldnt mind spending 2k on it if it works. Smoother powerband hit = more traction
