ok guys, i know these kinda questions have been made a lot and i also know you guys are all 2 stroke finatics but take a minute to read this in third person....

 

i have a 86 trx 250 r currently the top end is off, i blew it up the week before last or last week. it's got aftermarket axle, lonestar swingarm, if the top a airms weren't adjustable from the factory it's got aftermarket a arms. nerf bars, handlebars, fmf pipe and silencer, reed pedals "stock cages" and will have a brand new wiseco forged aluminum piston. the piston is already here just waiting on machine shop to give me cylinder back and it will be put back together.....

 

well i have the banshee and it's fast, the 250r is really rough on me in the trails for some reason, i think the front shocks are shot but it beats me up i'm thinking about swapping the 250r which i love and always wanted one and swore when i got it i'd never get rid of it, but i'm thinking about swapping it for a 03 660 raptor.

what do you guys think? also whats the good and bads with the raptors if anyone here knows? i have road a lot of atv's but the only newer 4 strokes that i have been around were the ds 650 i had one of those and a yz400f dirtbike in 2001. so i don't really know much about raptors, never even seen one run...

 

last time i had the quads out the place where i road around here had a lot of 2 foot deep washouts you had to strattle with tires on each side, it was a pretty rough place to ride and the banshee just wasn't cutting it being a 2 stroke i would have rather been on a 4 stroke that was a little more forgiving. do you think i should trade that guy?

 

also will the steering stem from a banshee fit a raptor?
