23champ Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 If you don't have a ported motor you ain't gonna do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
race-a-holic Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 I was out at a place where we ride yesturday called sand creek.I had been racing my banshee against my brother's quadzilla.I was winning of course.I think I've almost got him convinced to get a banshee.Anyways,a guy come up on a yamaha 250 dirt bike.It was stock.The place where we was racing was just long enough for me to start off in 2nd ,hit third,then lock the brakes up trying to shut it down.The 250 never had a chance.By the time I finally had it shut down,he'd be turning around going back to the starting line.Yes,the 250's are beatable.Just don't expect to beat them with a stock banshee.

sp1tekiller Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 All I know is that a banshee FEELS much faster than a 250 or even a 450. As for being faster, like these guys said above, it is easily do-able. Hell, some guys even have shees that can slaughter 500's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
race-a-holic Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 (edited) You are correct sir.I can beat a stock CR500.You should respect them though,because it takes more than just pipes on a banshee to have a chance to outrun them.They do run fast. Here's a point some people lose site of.TRACTION.People sometimes think because the dirtbikes are lighter and make decent hp.,that they can't be beat.Put the bike in sand(especially without a paddle tire),and it will have trouble hooking up.The banshee has two tires,so traction can be our friend.

BansheeBrian Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Yup I totally agree. Alot of people just think motor and not tires.I find dirtbikes are alot of fun to drag.Friggin' things are lightnin' outta the hole on hard pack.

I don't care what kind of tires a banshee is running, don't race a dirt bike on a gravel road. Those things flat cut down to the hard stuff while were still spinning on top. Traction is key!!

super88_banshee Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 not much really. my 4mm cub motor will flat out kill a 250 thats stock or mildly ported...mildy ported banshee could take one if setup properly... 407382[/snapback] My mildy ported banshee beat a cr 250 with a pipe. I also beat him b4 i was ported though too, just not as bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mud91 Posted September 11, 2005 Report Share Posted September 11, 2005 The place where we was racing was just long enough for me to start off in 2nd ,hit third,then lock the brakes How far were you racing 10 yards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bike,when it hooks up,needs alot of room to stop it.A week ago I was racing some guys and thought I was going to hit some trees because I couldn't hardly shut it down.I know my bike will really run,but never let it be said I'm unbeatable.I've raced some banshees that made me look like I just shut my bike off.They beat me that bad.Really.
