MarineNYC Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Has anyone ever encountered one. My shee has a agressive trail port by HERR JUGZ, Cool Head 20cc domes, Dmc Alien 916 system, V Force 3's, Trinity 2into1 35mm klein carb, +4 on timming. Do I stand a chance? A guy I know has one and he cant stop running his mouth about it. When he gets his shit together we will probally be dragging on a dirt road and on a paved road. I know that there is no replacement for displacement, but can I talk any smack at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider1026 Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 i have heard they do not like a lot of rpm, they are more of a lower rpm 2 stroke with more tourqe. i would race one if i could, i think that the suzuki 250's were slow turds, .

Michael Jackson Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 theres is a replacement for displacement , it comes in the form of a 347cc 2 cylinder 2 stroke.. just race him... too many factors involved.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPEN Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Like anything, it depends on how much the other is built up.. If he doesnt have anything to crazy going done to his and you can ride decent, you should be able to get him.. RIPPEN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black sunshine Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 For some reason I can recall the Dirtwheels/3&4 Wheeler shootouts. Stock and in new condition the Banshee gets a couple lengths on the holeshot but the 500 grows longer legs and is faster. 20 years later and it's probably a different story because your more than likely not talking about stock motors.

zach45 Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 i rememebr reading that.... the banshee would beat it in the race.. but zilla had higher top speed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KlotzBanshee Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 I raced my buddys cousin's zilla a few times on a dirt road. Both of us just had pipes at the time and he would pull about one or two feet on me in each gear. Over the last year he hasnt done shit to his zilla but ride it, and my shee is a bit more F.A.S.T. so I think I can take him. But all things being equal (mod for mod)...the zillas a little faster than a shee. :ermm: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sled Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 my 87 LT250R was not a slow bike. it was ported with a pipe and all your normal mods. it would take my banshee no problem and It ran dead even with my buddies ported banshee and im 80 heavier. those bike are no joke, the 500 can only be that much better. good luck but, i think the 500 will win.

fastrthnu Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Back in the day when these bikes where new, one of the big mags did a write up on the two and the 500 came out on top barelly. I had a guy living near me, thats all he would ride,. he had like 4 of those things in his garage with a few incomplete and those fkrs where fast! Your bike would stomp a stock 500 with the mods,. so it depends on what hes go goin on inside the frame rails. If they wherent so hard to come across and so frikin ugly, Id have one.

bbcmudtruck Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 I raced against one in the horsedrags last season. His was a well built and maintained machine. I smoked him off the line, but he caught my ass! My banshee isn't all that built though. If you want a sure way to beat a zilla, put a couple of turns in the race :thumbsup: Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Zilla is drag ported I would say the race is over before it began. Guess you will just have to race him to see how it comes out.

pabansheematt Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 You have the wrong setup for drag racing. If the Zilla is drag ported I would say the race is over before it began. Guess you will just have to race him to see how it comes out. I've had a 1988 Quadzilla for 5 years. Lets just say I dont miss it. I also had 3 banshees, from bone stock to crazy fast, and one somewhere in the middle. EVERYONE could beat that zilla in a race, not to mention I never had to push a banshee home. Race him. put some money on it. you'll WIN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
