Infamous039 Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 I have the Suzuki 450r 2007 and I tell you this thing is fast as hell. I have full yoshimura exhaust, cherry bomb, and modqaud filter setup no airbox lid. Mind you that the Suzuki 450r is fuel injected. I have whipped about 2 banshee's already from start to the end. I also have a banshee and I love them to death, but the Suzuki 450r is where its at right now as far performance, speed, and reliability. Not saying the banshee doesnt have all those things, but the Suzuki 450r is just crazy and amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave I. Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 I dont see all the 450 guys bragging about beating a piped banshee...maybe its just me but seems like a lot of banshees have little man syndrome...450 guys dont have the complex that if they dont beat a banshee that they are less of a man....I dont know if this is true everywhere but from what ive seen it is.....good for you if you can beat one in a straight line......go race one on a trail or mx and see how you do, if you can walk the next day.

I agree Dave.. I was never really into the 4strokes...But the more i ride my buddies 450r its growing on me....Now dont get me wrong I love my shee, but since my back injury and did my motor, the shee really beats the shit out of me while Im trail riding with the 4pokers....We all know that you can trail ride with a banshee, yes it can be done but not like you can on a 4stroke...Its so much easier and smoother, you dont have to work as hard... But dave the guys over here by me that ride the 450's dont take losing very well, I had one kid last week race me like 5-6 times on his worked 450r.... What you gonna do you win some you lose some as long as you having fun and not getting hurt who gives a fuck... The new 4strokes are kool bikes I dont have a prob with them, My crew is me and 4 four stroke what can I do....... I was out Saturday, there was about 50 people there, maybe 5-6 banshee's and yamaha 3 wheeler and the rest was 4 stokes, there has to be something good about them since everyone is riding them.....

NickyPap Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 I raced a handful of times on the Banshee and refused to switch over but finally ended up getting a 06 ltr for the track. The Banshee just beat the shit out of me. I'll never let go of the Banshee for play but on the track there's no comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Jackson Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 so much bias bullshit on the internet.. on both sides, 4 streokers and 2 strokers... its all a matter of preference. some people like torque everywhere and some like high hp high revving banshees...its all about what YOU want...ive read alot of bashing of banshees on 4 stroke forums in the past, and its pretty funny... but the same goes for bashing of 4 strokes on 2 strokes sites by people who are talking out their ass... about their piped banshees beating ported, high comp 450s and shit..as long as there are both 2 and 4 strokes, theres gona be a fair share of dumb asses bashing both..most of who havnt even ridden what they are bashing. would i take a 450 over my banshee for what i do? no.... never.... but would i own both if i had the money... yes.. in a second. i think some of you should ride a raptor 700 or a few of the 450's before you go on bashing them and calling them turds just because they have valves..i bet you wiill be surprised and probably chnage your opinion... a piped 450 or piped raptor is just as fast as a piped banshee, and has lots of torque too... but they just arnt as fun to ride in my opinion, down the road im sure i will own a 4 stroke as well though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagunCajun Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 almost all 450 slow comparreisons on this site is done from a drag racing point of view. They arent made for that. I've got a ported shee and worked 450s are still a bitch to beat.Throw some suspension on the front of a 450 with some prowedges and prepare to dust your average bolt on shee. I want a 450. I want low end damnit. I can not get my front end up to play at all when i want to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Jackson Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 i think thats all rider cajun, haha.. i got alot less hp than you in my banshee and my front end comes up all day long if i want it to.little tap of the throttle and lean back a bit, and its all over the place..i think once you get that 450 front end off, and that front end is up higher, it will be wheeling alot more... you also got little 19 inch front tires too dont you?

kawiking Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 i really do like the 450's , ithink the suz/kawi 400 is one of the best play/trail bikes made. if i was to buy another it would be the rap 700. i really like them !!!

Michael Jackson Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 they need a chassis inbetween the 450 and 700 i think.. the 450 is kind of small, and the 700 is kind of big and tall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB3 Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 (edited) yfz450 = better watch out cuz them bitches are quick and could end up whooping you with a good rider on it True that Loco...... you guy's kill me.....lol....

theshee Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 I have zero complaints about the raptor 700 chassis. I think it is the most comfortable sport quad out there. Our YFZ is just not as comfortable to me, compared to the raptor 700. The raptor 700SE is significantly smoother than the YFZ and banshee. All three of bikes are great, i cant complain about any of them, if you use them for what they are made for. Im just lucky to have all 3 of them, because i can and will give you an UN bias opinion about each one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zach45 Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 the 450 dosent have the fun factor as a banshee does for me... they are real nice bikes... but its hard to explain..... but were comparing 2 diffrent worlds here..

Michael Jackson Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 same bullshit as imports vs muscle cars... everyone has their preference, and the battles will go on forever... but we all know in the end, the older muscle cars prevail , as do the 2 strokes haha :kiss: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
