redwings Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Just what the topic the topic says. I was tired of getting beat by banshees so i got one. What makes banshees so fast. I guess the engine is a marvel? Frame? Weight....whats your opinion? :biggrin: :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sled Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 A well tuned 2 stroke can make almost twice the power of a 4 stroke. they do the same amount work in 2 cycles vs a 4 stroke which takes 4 cycles. with today technology 4 stroke are catching up quick, the banshee is 70s technology!

AKheathen Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 sheer will on the part of the riders, along with a 2 stroke twin cylinder motor rick james biotch! 4 strokes waste 1 1/2 revoulutins on moving and compressing gasses, and 1/2 rev. making power. 2 stroke is 1:1. like having the power of 2 cylinders come out of 1, without the dead weight and drag of the extra cyl. with the epa push, 4 stroke technology has made vast upgrades in efficiency eqalling more power from the same fuel. 2 stroke is held on a pedistal by 4 stroke engineering as a plateau to surrmount. however, the 2-stroke has been all,but abandoned for advancement, but there are some advancements in 2 stroke technology, one i've already been employing, and the other is a valving, which i have been keeping a close eye on. pretty soon, 4 stroke will be great, even on par with current 2 stroke, but 2 stroke will be ungodly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildcardracing Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 banshee's are acctually on of the heavier sport quads out there. They are an excellent platform engine wise to make insane amounts of power. The fact that they had a production run of 19 years in the U.S., 22 years total has given them an aftermarket following unknown to other quads. The possibilities are endless with engine and chassis mods. Engine displacement for engine displacement the 4 strokes have a long way to go to be on par with our banshee's. When's the last time you saw a 350cc 4 stroke pushin out close to 90hp naturally aspirated?? Will be a long time before it's a reality IMO.

RIPPEN Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Why are boobs good? lol Like mentioned before I think the combo of a twin two stroke and a HUGE aftermarket mod world is what really puts the Banshee up there.. Which also works good because there can be a hundred different combos a guy could use.. RIPPEN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
