00Wickedbanshee Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 i am really interested in racing .i have a 00 banshee my dad has a 250 r which will be better in the long run. i know im on a banshee site so dont be offended let me know. i love the torque on the 250 r but you guys are always saying good things about the 2 to 1 carb and dyna port exhaust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fixitrod Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 I'd have to say the geometry of the 250r is better. Actually, the mx banshee guys try to get 250r style geometry frames for their banshees. Run each on the track and see which one gives you the best lap times.

00BANSHEE Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 but you guys are always saying good things about the 2 to 1 carb and dyna port exhaust 291057[/snapback] It won't be the power that makes up your mind. It will be the handling. Since you have both at your disposal take each one around an MX track and give 100% on both and I bet you'll have faster times on the 250r.

txblueshee Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 I've had the opportunity to flog on every mx capable machine out there... I don't like the way you sit ON the yfz450 and R's as opposed to the feeling of the 'shee/450r were your more down in the machine. Like these guys said though..... 1/2 dozen one, 1/2 dozen other.

yanks5164 Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 i think its more rider than machine so if u do ur suspension up good like a -1 swinger +2+1 arms and sum good shocks and combone that wit skill u can go reck ppl on a shee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decon Posted December 10, 2004 Report Share Posted December 10, 2004 a -2 swingarm would hook up better. 2in1 carb, some ptr mids, and some good suspension should have you rollin better than the stock setup. just run some laps with both quads, like people are saying to do, and see which one feels better.
