What type of riding do you want to do with it?

IMO that's going to be the biggest determining factor.

I mostly ride in open lane ways in ther country. I have a small woods trail/track, and my buddy has a small mx track. Also i ride in stone pits.

personally, i prefer the power of a 4 stroke. im more comfortable with it and its easy to ride and ride fast. for the woods, i definately prefer a 4 stroke, but for mx its a toss up. i wouldnt get rid of a raptor for a banshee, but then again i wouldnt get rid of a banshee for a raptor. i would stick with the raptor and pick up parts as you go, either way both are good quads and can be fun projects!

im fine with a banshee in tight trails, if you are a good rider and good with a clutch your good to go

[Tater049]

Personally, i wouldnt do that because, yea you would have to do a lot more maintenance with the 2 stroke. Also i really like the look of the 700 and the power of it. So, i wouldnt really do that, but hey if you like it, then go for it.

is it that u want a banshee or do u wahant a better machine?banshees are fast!thats the big reason people get them.if u whant a better machine look into the raptor 700.

[Tater049]

he already has the raptor, he just wants to know if looking into a shee is a good idea

[tldPREDATORboy]

he has a 660 not a 700 .or thats what his signature says,if he whants a better machine look into the 700.if he just whants info the banshee is a good machine to.

[Tater049]

i no but, he is saying he has a raptor and doesnt want another one, he wants to know if a banshee is a better choice over the raptor.

[tldPREDATORboy]

yes i feal a banshee is hands down better.but some people like the raptor.and others like 250r's.its his choice.he would have to ride one in his element to see if it will be better.and i have seen lots of banshee's do good on the track and in the woods.

[Tater049]

but for me personally i would say raptor becuase it looks sexy and is oh so powerful
