In the new issue 2002 Dirt Wheels Buyers Guide it goes like this out of the box, from fastest to slowest.....
Yamaha Banshee 77.7 MPH
Yamaha Raptor 76.9 MPH
Bombardier DS 650 Baja 76.1 MPH
Cannondale Cannibal 75.1 MPH
Honda 400 EX 66.8 MPH
But here's where it gets interesting...Track times with a pro rider the Honda comes in 2nd out the bunch, next with a intermediate rider the 400 came in 3rd out of the bunch, and the last rider was Trail Rider level he came in 2nd, not too bad considering the 400 it was the cheapest ride out of them all, What good is power if it's not getin' to the ground!! Good article ...worth buying
