Banshee Vs 250r

[Banshee03QC]

My friend said that a 250r is better to climb hill than a Banshee.

Is this true???

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.

I have both. It all depends on how the bikes are set up, and the hill in question.

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.

ya an r won at the nationals this year

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.

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.!

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

my 2 cents = some thing may climb better than a banshee but nothing climbs FASTER than a banshee
