I have not raced anyone yet, just got it monday. My buddy has a modded trx 450r and I absolutely can't let him win, I beat him pretty bad on my kx 125 spare bike and he can't come close to my kx 250 but I will never hear the end if he beats my banshee. I don't really know what is inside this motor but I do know its not stock, much stronger than my friends banshee and he has ported cylinders, milled head, rad valves, 28 mm carbs without the airbox, different cdi box, timing plate, t5 pipes and running on c 12. I still have the crap gas that was in it, reed spacers look stock, cylinder and head are oem airbox still factory and tors is all intact so I'm assuming the carbs have not been modified or that would be the first thing to do, I really don't want to break it down to see what is there just to put it back together unless its completely necessary for matching the rest, I am really just wanting to upgrade the head, timing, airbox and jetting and that should be enough, if anyone has stuff like that for sale or nerf bars, bumpers, motor dress up kits, wider control arms and cool stuff send them my way.
