Yes I ride a cannondale. If you don't know what it is and think it is an easy maintnance 4-stroke do some research. It takes more maintnance than a shee ever will. But that's what you get when you buy a true high performance quad.
And for all you am. guys it is fine and dandy to race people without any skill, but answer me why nobody that rides pro rides a shee? I can name a few dales that race pro. Jeff Stoess races on one in GNCC and took home 1st place overall in the Sparta GNCC. I am not sure of their name, but I know of 1 person that Raced GNC on a Dale and did well for himself but is now retired.
Wait... I know why Shee's don't race Pro production, or Pro am Class. They have to have 350cc's to make enough power to beat the 4 strokes which 350cc's+being a 2-stroke puts them in the unlimited class!
Yeah, I'll give banshee's their due, they are fast and can be made GREAT Mx bikes. But it takes close to $20,000 to do that. I know a guy that races pro production now that used to race a shee, he said he was much faster on his shee. of course he had $17,000 in the shee, but he couldn't find sponsers because it was an open class bike and nobody gives a shit about Open class, everyone wants their stuff in being shown off on REAL production bikes.
