My 87 Banshee

OK, so my buddy has been talkin a lot o shit about his 250 R and how it screams with his 4mil stroker and higher compresion. he also got some minor port work done. I let him ramble on about how im going to eat shit and die in a drag race, bla bla bla. SO we set up a time for the next day to line em up. keep in mind i havent started the shee in a couple months, and dont even know If im jetted in for this colder weather. SO, my buddy shows up, with a friend sportin a HRC kitted 450- nice ass lookin bike. I fire my banshee up, its fuckin diealed in!!. Didnt touch the jets, but the plugs looked good so i said lets run em!

 

We all line up on the dirt road, and Im gone, leaving them both at the starting line!! So im pretty happy. I give the guys a little head start, by 4th gear im rollin past, 5th and 6th--gone again!!

 

SO all in all, im damn happy with my 20 year old bike(drag ported and a 15/41 gear with fmf gold series and 20cc domes) to beat a brand new $8000 machine, and a 250R that was all hyped up.

 

SO HONDA, what do you have to say???

congradulations on youre win. its such a great feeling to know youre faster than the next guy. i guess thats why so many people are addicted to drag racing.

 

what a coincidencethat i drag raced a 250r last weekend as well. this guy told me his 250r had a high performance piston, big bore kit and a camshaft as well as the usual clamp on fake k&n filter. he was talking up his 250r like it was heroin. i didnt know 2 strokes came with camshafts! well i tell you what when we both took off from the starting line i just destroyed him. by the time he got 50 foot out of the hole i was 100 feet away. so after spaking him over and over again he tells me that banshees are quick outa the hole but his 250r is a top end bike and if we race from a rolling start he will beat me.

 

so we race from a rolling start in 3rd and once again the banshee with its world destroying power let me jump out in front. it wasnt even a race!

 

 

i also took on a 400ex with a 440cc big bore kit and high compression piston, drag cam, hmf exhaust and small front sprocket and again a fake k&n clamp on filter. again it was no compatition. i destroyed that 440ex like it was a 250ex from a rolling start as well as a race from a stop.

 

 

and both riders of these 2 atv's probably weighed 130lbs less than me!

 

gotta love the banshee.

 

i know i sound a bit cocky, i know theres some wocked 250r's out there as well at 400ex's, but come on its not like there is very many of those wicked bikes cruising around.

He was being sympathetic, you know, putting himself in other people's shoe's. Since there were 2 of the 3 that had rides of shame. :laugh:
