I remember seeing a comparison of the 2 in a Dirtwheels edition (or one of those mags) years ago, and I recall that the Zilla would take the Shee after 3rd gear in a drag. This was stock vs. stock....modified, probably depends on the level of mods. Comparable mods, I'd bet that the Zilla would still edge out the Shee. The are both 2-stroke, and the Zilla has 150 cc more displacement. Now, if the Shee had more displacement and the Zilla remained stock displacement, then I'd put my money on the Shee - a twin can make more power than a single of the same displacement. Just my thoughts.......

yea the dirt wheels mag back in '89 i belive had a comparison and it said that the zilla was more for track, and that the banshee was more for trails and those types of situations.

I have several friends with quadzillas and banshees.Stock vs. stock and even piped vs. piped,the quadzilla will not have much problem beating the banshee.I'm a big fan of the banshee,but that's just how it is.

yah, the zilla is faster... but, i would take a banshee hands down every day over a zilla... for starters, the zilla is a suzuki and was bike that was not built very well... they are not the most dependable things.. also, man, they jsut feel weird... if you drive that thing its like a big old tank... the zilla is freakin ugly... also, another main reason i woud not by a zilla, is the feal... i love the two stroke for that hit of the powerband and reving that sucker out... the zilla is more of a "grunter" than "winder outer" (i know you're loving my educated writing here)... those big bores you have to short shift and not wind them out... like i said, hands down i would buy a banshee... there was a guy in my dune group several years back, that rode a zilla, and every big weekend like thanksgiving or whatever, he would bring a spare engine, as he would blow one and then throw another one in... he couldnt make it through a long weekend on one motor...

I know what you mean the zilla pulls super hard but its more of a smooth long pull rather than a normal power band hit. that seat is the worst. it kind of runs out onto the rear fenders (almost like its set up for a passenger.

The Zilla will win on top speed, but they have problems with staying together like someone said above. Id take a banshee over one anyday because there are so many more aftermarket parts for them. You can probley build a banshee from only aftermarket stuff (engine and everything). Mines been problem free for 2yrs and 4 months. now (except the axle bearings)...............
