I agree 100%. You are absolutely correct.

Yeah, it could possibly be done. We 4x4 riders just need a pioneer, lol.

That's my point. These bikes aren't designed to run with banshees. They can't. They weigh 800 pounds. So it's impressive to get 1020 pounds (bike and rider) moving that fast. If there was some way these motors could be in a 300 pound setup, they'd compete well against sport bikes.

Watch the vid in the above post I posted. It is running a massive amount of turbo boost and putting 230 hp to the tire. Jeff Ross builds the fastest naturally aspirated can ams in the country right now. But mrrpm is the only one to apply that amount of forced induction. As far as Jeff having the fastest outlander in the country....he just built 2 bikes (mine and another) that will outrun his outlander. Of course Jeff doesn't care, cause they're his builds, lol. Come to the Labor day Leerjak event to see these bikes if you want.

Actually the 4x4 part only helps minutely because the bike is on 2 wheels the first 100 ft. Here is a vid showing how fast they can be. Now if we can just get them to weigh about 300 pounds less, they could be much more competitive.

I'm a newbie here who is just going through old threads trying to learn about banshees. I came across this one and saw the last few posts talking about the outlanders and renegades which is what I own. There is a renegade is NC running 3.9's. The guy's name is mrrpm. Mine runs low 4's. These are 800 pound 4x4 quads that weren't made for dragging, but it's impressive since they are carrying all that weight. If these things drop 300 pounds, they could be real competitors against heavy sport bike builds. But at the weight we're at now, we can't run with heavy built banshees. Mild to moderate builds we can keep up with. My bike makes 105 to the tire on motor and 93 octane gas.
