differentstrokes Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 Me and close to 30 others have a big ride planned for next weekend and I'll meet up with a guy I work with who's been talking shit for close to 2 years about his 86 250r. His bike is stock bore, unported with a tr5 esr pipe, rad valve, and a 38mm airstryker w/ airbox and he says it always runs real rich. He just ordered a new set of knarlies for the rear, I've got a new set of razrs on mine. Just wondering what to expect in a drag, mods are in my sig. I think he's running some fairly high gearing too. I can't lose to this b*tch or I'll die! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClimbAnyHill Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 Just for the record. Guys with that kinda mouth never win!! Whoop him good then come back to the BHQ and tell us how you ripped him a new one!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
differentstrokes Posted October 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 It's not that his bike is really modded out like you can see, but he probably can put the power to the ground easier. I just gotta beat this guy, you don't even know. He heard from some guys at work that I could ride and told a few people it didn't matter what I did to my bikes, his R had never been beat...sounds gay, really gay. As a matter of fact a guy at work who wants to buy his first quad asked this guy for his recommendation and he said "they don't make any good ones, they quit back in 89 with the 250R"...aaaahhhhhh :: I need to get this on camera.

Cannon Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 (edited) If the drag race is on dirt / grass, you cannot get a better hookup tire on a Banshee than Kenda Knarly's with every other row of knobs cut off. http://www.bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?...=Kenda+Knarleys Edited November 2, 2006 by Cannon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
differentstrokes Posted November 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 Riding my banshee fell through since some stuff I ordered didn't come in, anyway I rode my 450r and his 250r runs really strong. It was pretty even against my 4stroke, especially in the woods. Those things are badass, I need to buy one when I get done with this blaster I just bought. Anyway, I've got a feeling my banshee will roast him on asphalt but lose on dirt. His just goes and pulls pretty hard, his power is all over like a 4stroke. I'm thinking his motor is a little fresher/ has more than he leads on though, it runs waaaayyyy to good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2bzy2p Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 im the owner of both and an unported R should not beat your banshee and he should not be running that big of a carb for an unported motor either, so are u sure hes telling u the truth???? im thinking hes ported and are getting u all psyched up then he pulls a fast one over u, if he does bet u hes not stock! LOL i just read the post above mine! oops! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
differentstrokes Posted November 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 I'm thinking it's ported too, he's not the original owner so he may not know for sure. I know it runs really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BANSHEEPRO Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 I'm thinking it's ported too, he's not the original owner so he may not know for sure. I know it runs really good. NEVER I REPEAT NEVER UNDER ESTAMATE THE 250R YOUL NEVER BEAT HIM ON A TRACK THE BANSHEE WAS NOT DESIGNED FOR THAT DRAGIN ON ASPHALT YOU GOTTA SHOT BUT IF YOU WIN IN THE TRAILS OR ON THE TRACK HES NOT A RIDER I RACED AN 88 250R ALL MY LIFE THEY ARE SOME OF THE BEST MACHINES OUT THERE ILL CHALLENGE ANY SHEE IN THE US OF A TO 15 LAPS ON A MX TRACK ...AND STAKES ARE HIGH TO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
differentstrokes Posted November 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 I was really impressed with it, but he couldn't shake my 450r. The 450r pushed his tires from behind all day. I know my banshee wouldn't stand a chance in the woods though. I'd trade the shee off for a really nice 250r if I could find one of equal value.
