DUNE-A-TIC Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Really? I'm a banshee fan no doubt but does video speak for itself? I'd be more than happy to give specifics if you need them.... http://www.bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?...=68378&st=0 Dune Quote

I'd be more than happy to give specifics if you need them.... http://www.bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?...=68378&st=0 Dune whats the 400 racing against,i know a shee ,but what mods,is no way,a 400 w every mod avaliable for it,would beat a 4 mil cub,also with a good set up.the only thing i can say about the 400 hondas,is this,one day i was at pismo drag racing some hop up 450's,and this 400 showed up,and i thought no biggy,cuz i was smoking the shit out of full drag 450,well that 400 was like a bike or 2 behind me,the fastes 400 ive ever seen.having said that that vid does not speak for itself,nothing to do with the race at hand,421 DRAG PORTED CUB VS 700 [lets not forget fully automatic kawi]W A 800 BIG BORE,thats like me trying to race my altima,agaist my neighbors dodge viper.no bullshit. :: :: :: :: :: Quote
DUNE-A-TIC Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 "altima,agaist my neighbors dodge viper"....lol...It is an 80's model air-cooled XR650(now 717 on alk..no N2O..no bar) in a stock EX frame. Any more q's? Can't recognize the difference in a drag frame bike and the EX?Hrmmmm...wierd... Dune Quote

Dune iam not comparing the honda hybrid to the altima,iam comparing the kawi to the altima,and the viper to the 421 cub,and yes i had not seen that it wasnt a fully moded 400 ex,but a really fast hybrid w a 400 ex frame,and besides the vid you posted is not that great,not trying to start shit w anyone,but its a fact. :: :: Quote

MDS2106 Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 (edited) That was a bone stock banshee[except pipes] running 4 snows at the sand drags. Edited February 9, 2007 by MDS2106 Quote
phx450 Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 How does the 400 come into this? We are talking about an 1800 pound, automatic, and a Kawasaki none the less! It aint happening period. :: I have see a couple of the bored out kawasakie 700-800 run and while they are no slouch, they still are not in the same ballpark as a cub banshee, note even the same leage, probably not even the same sport!

DUNE-A-TIC Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 GLAD this comes to conversation. I like those that can stand out in a crowd and claim something. A 800cc thumper can outrun a 421cub if they do the research and lots of test time to get it right. As soon as someone says "no way"someone is doing it somewhere, some how. I know the times on the XR and it runs very good. Stock Banshee with pipes is pretty accurate from what i'm told by both owners.Umm, but it is a good example of the XR...In action....HP numbers are what you would and would not expect. Whatever...lol...pull up next to it and see!!! Dune Quote
r/atvshee Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 SHAKE AND BAKE!!!! im the magic man. now you see me... and now you dont. :yelrotflmao: :yelrotflmao: Quote
hondasrslow Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 for this to even be a race it would have to be the worst running cub against the best running kfx. a decent 421 should run low 4's in 300'.it would take ALOT of horsepower to make a big heavy bike like a kfx to come even close.

DUNE-A-TIC Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 Need more details...on the kfx...lol...I know what a good cub runs...;-)... Dune Quote
MDS2106 Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 No doubt that xr/ex is a real strong runner.After i saw it run, I had to take another look to see that it had a transplant.Got a little something for it this year.............. Quote
