I know that a 4-stroke is unbeatable in MX races and handling is WAY better... but are there still guys out there who races with their banshees for fun? I do now and then I still love it, especially with the aftermarket suspension...
Yea i gues with the aftremarket suspension....its alot more fun...LOL
I know goigen was telling me when he use to rid MX against the 450's... Look i gues if you can get the shee to stand alot lower like say an LTR with an awsome bottom end port job....for heaps of torque...you might just have a winner...
Just got get over that traction factor...
There is nothing better looking than seeing a Banshee flying through the air...thats for sure...Even if its coming stone last...
unfortunately theres not one banshee on the quadmx circuit (regional or national) which is a pity as it's no slouch
with a decent suspension setup and a few engine tweaks it can run with the big boys, rider permitting of course.
I dunno if you guys saw it on tv, but about 3 weeks ago on the weekly "rapid motion dirtworx" in the ermelo 400 there was a banshee in the senior class and it won!

Was great 2 see!

Yes I did! The guy missed a turn and almost stalled it! Its nice to see that there are still guys that have faith in them.
I dont see why guys dont race banshee on the enduro...There is nothing that will catch the shee on top end thats for sure...
Look at boesman...Ok he had like R80 000 in hes banshee but thats what the guys are spending on the 450's...anyways...
Its just because 450's are in and no one want to be the outsider...That guy that won the senior class good on him...I love watching shit like that...
