Banshee03QC Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 My friend said that a 250r is better to climb hill than a Banshee. Is this true??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignasty1 Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 i personally cant think of one bike being better to climb a hill than another they all have their strong points but mod for mod on a bike specificly built for going up a hill a shee would win i think.

350duner Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 I have both. It all depends on how the bikes are set up, and the hill in question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tats4life Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 I had both, i could climb some hills with it and not on my banshee(to much wheel spin). You can put an r pretty much where ever you want to, b/c the bike is perfectly balance compared to a shee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tats4life Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 which nat, jeremiah is the only guy on an r still besides tavis cain, and he's switched to yzf450 as soon as duncan got one. Dana went to a crf450 and sold his r for $3500 in macon to some dumbass that has no idea what the hell he bought. In my pro-am class, chad lohr is on a leager yz426. Pretty much everbody in my class is running a four stroke. The guys still riding banshee's all live pretty close to me, so we usually follow each other to the nats.

Bansheerider99 Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 It depends on what kind of hill u r looking at. In the dunes a long slow rising hill i think that the banshee would win.! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbsoLut Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 Well really it depends on how big of a run you can get with the banshee I'll post a pic of a hill that's monsterous and i've seen jeeps break axles going up.. but good ol banshee went up it no problem.. just had to get a 5 gear head start on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandman121383 Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 my 2 cents = some thing may climb better than a banshee but nothing climbs FASTER than a banshee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
