Alrite guyz, for my 18th B day, My dad is thinkin getin a new quad and taking mine for his. So ne wayz, im thinkin yamaha banshee or yfz450 or honda 450r. Ive had the experience with a fully piped banshee with worcs shocks, and other goods and fully piped yfz450 out at glamis. Their similarities to me are so close. They feel almost the same powerwise. The only thing that seemed to bother me is the suspension on the yfz. It seemed a little rough. The banshee felt nice with the worcs shocks compared to other banshees ive ridden. Ive ridden a 450r but i never got to really "ride" it. Just from siting on it, the suspension felt plush tho. However, i never got to really "experience" it so i duno how it feels riding it. The only thing about the 450s that bother me is hearing horror stories on them having their engines blowing up on their owners. With the banshees, i hear u gota really maintain them, but its not nearly as expensive to maintain them. So what do you guyz think.

i dunno the banshees are incredible dune quads but are being discontinued (2-stroke ban) and four strokes last forever if you do routine maintenance...so if your reallly not gonna change much on the quads it doesn't really matter but if your gonna buy a pipe and shocks and paddles for it go with one of the 450s
