banshee or yfz

[camman11]

right now my son wants to get a banshee or yfz to grow into cause he has a blaster and he wants something faster but hes thirteen and he races gncc but i can get a banshee 2 grand cheaper than the yfz but the yfz is lighter than a banshee but he was also thinking a 250r for light weight

get the ""R""

[SHOWTIME]

probably 250r from what you are saying.

[camman11]

that would be my first pick but i can the banshee for 1 grand and you cant really beat that

[SHOWTIME]

oh 1g...yea go for it man.

[bfulton620]

ig... hell yea, get the banshee. you wont beat that man. you can make it hella nice for what the other bike would cost you...

[camman11]

do you think the weight will effect him though

BETTER TRACTION! haha lightin it up a bit??? it shouldnt really matter only thing would be keeping it in the power band in tight spots but yea if you can get it for 1 g id do that

GET THE SHEE lol for a g that would be a no brainer for me

[Wacko Jacko]

if hes competitively racing gncc, on tight trails, get a YFZ 450
sure the banshee can be built to run in the tight stuff, but takes money and still doesnt have the power where u need it like the 450 4 strokes do stock, the stock 450 has tgons of torque, decent suspension and handles great, much more practical power and just better for the job, i would take my friends 450 over my banshee if we were riding tight gncc shit anyday
