I feel I need to clarify a few things. First off, I don't create these videos to cause division in this community. The off-road industry has some of the most competitive and also stubborn individuals, lol. Let's not be close-minded at all. What I'm doing on this channel is trying to remove the biasm and actually just go with the facts. That's why I do all the testing and tuning on this channel. In my experience, and this video is clear evidence, with $2,500 worth of parts, you can have a Raptor performing like Flip's. Parts include, Full system empire industries exhaust, FCI intake, power Commander 5. Fuel controller, port and polished head with +1 valves, webcam, and 50 mm throttle body. Now let's start with a good set of pipes on the Banshee and the jetting kit to go with it. You're going to spend around $1, 500. That gives you $1,000 left over to purchase carburetors and reeds. Maybe even squeeze a port and polish in there, but that's probably not going to happen. With those mods, it's still not going to overtake Flip's Raptor. Bottom line, I do not believe a full bolt-on Banshee will be a full bolt-on Raptor.

I understand the Banshee isn't the fastest thing in the world anymore. But what I know for sure, there will never be another ATV that could compete in its era like the Banshee did in its era. Not to mention the fact that the Banshee is an icon. No other ATV in the world could ever end up as iconic as the Yamaha Banshee, regardless of how fast or powerful it is.

It’s always a good day when quad nation uploads a video

Hey dude, i just got into atvs after riding at a friend's cabin this fall and riding thru my childhood. I came across your channel and love the content. Keep up the awesome video! ✌

Flip smoked the banshee . Couldn’t even hear that ole girl lol dope short! Keep’em coming quadnation!

that raptor is a monster 👍🏼 nice 👌🏼

That test proved nothing, stock banshee with half the cubic inch vs built up raptor with twice the motor.

I agree with everything your saying for the most part lol. There is a few mods to stock banshee that makes it a complete different machine that is good set of aftermarket pipes and an aftermarket air filter. It still will not beat that raptor but it will open that banshee up. Love your videos have blessed day

Love this channel

FINALLY QUAD NATION POSTED 🔥🔥🔥

That didn’t hurt my feelings it’s a 700 modern quad built, a 4 mill built which is a mild build ported and tuned would be a race against that raptor. Hey a Tesla is faster than most sports cars and I wouldn’t take it if it was givin to me lol BANSHEE WINS EVEN WHEN IT DOEANT WIN LOL , great video

I got a raptor 700 with fci intake/msd programmer/dual exhaust/11:1cp piston/47mm throttle body/+1 port an polished heads/5050 cuervo web cam on stock bore an stock stroke I'm at 70 horsepower its a monsters I figured your friend raptor is at probably 70-72 horsepower

I build drag quads I have a turbo 875cc raptor with nos and a big 7 and more mods it’s 200 hp and I have a fully built triple twister motor for my banshee and led pipes and a new frame etc the whole thing is aftermarket and it produces 240hp it smokes my raptor

You should do a collaboration with the Hellcat channel Banshee.

That raptor is quick!

Idk if “look at him just blow me” was PG but I laughed 😂

That’s how it felt with the blaster and banshee back in the day

I love banshees but the raptor 700 is all around the best quad I ever rode and owned!!

You should make a video with the trail boss

If you put aftermarket pipes on like, dmc, cpi you could easily keep up with him

Raptor owners: nah, my quad looks good stock Banshee owners: **makes a monster truck**

Wooo.. now that's what ya call a spankin!

I had a stock Banshee with FMF pipes and jetting and still lost to a bone stock Raptor 700R.

Where are you getting parts and who did the head work? Cost of parts alone is over $1,500 minus the cam. Then throw in another $2,000 for head port, oversized valves and cam. Seems like more than a couple grand. I'm actually curious because I found this video looking for ideas to build a 700 raptor.

Who did the head work for flip?

A 250r would be a great addition to the channel. Easy to make power on.

Please make a video trying a diesel atv it's so nice

A raptor 700 should beat a 350 Banshee now take a 421 Cheetah or a 472 Super and u have a very upset Raptor owner and it dont take 15K to make either I have both along with Raptor 700r and Yfz 450r and I have less in either banshee then what I paid for either 4 stroke have and it cost 2x more to build a 4 stroke I might have 2500-3000K in each Banshee motor and I paid 12K for my Raptor new I paid 9K for my 450 new and I might have idk 6-7K total into either Banshee and the the 421 smokes a big 3 450 all day and my 472 shuts down any 700 Raptor

I have a built 23 grizzly 700 se, and it is cool, but nothing comes close to my 87 Banshee. Fourth gear 2/3 rds throttle and she wakes up and says HOLD ON!

Hey quadnation, do you know what the part number for the fuel pump relay, for the 450 ds can-am is?

What compression is the raptor ?

You can shift up without letting go of the throttle?

I'm still building a banshee.

My 140hp banshee would have made that guy sell his raptor😂😂😂

how did he not let go of the throttle while shifting the banshee

You could put a 392cc big bore kit in it for about 700$

When I got my first 660 had a white brothers pipes on it and a k and m banshee had no chance

I got both raptor cost big money to make 70+hp banshee 421 kit with Cub cylinder and Port good exhaust will annihilate Raptor

Heyyyy Bro!!!! 😎

what webcam did he put in that bike

You need to watch some of mr. Nasty videos. 100hp banshee

Does the 50mm make it hard to start or loose bottom end? I ride with buddys on highways and gravel and trails. I've heard that thr 50mm makes you loose alot down low.

where did your buddy flip buy his web cam? part number??

I will like to know what would happen if yamaha come up with a 700 cc two stroke. Just saying

Now do a 4mil banshee vs that raptor

That raptor is good for around low 70s hp to the wheels, that’s what raptor 700s with similar mods make, big 3 raptors make 55-60 to the wheels, the 80+ hp ones are packing more cc’s, they have more work, more $$$ done to them. Daniel at Cuervo racing isn’t building you an 80+ hp to the wheel raptor 700 for cheap, not even close. I feel like a 4 mill stock cylinder banshee making 70-75 hp is a good race against this raptor, pretty even. A 421 cub will leave it in the dust, you’re talking 90-100 hp to the wheels, and it doesn’t cost $10k-$15k, I paid maybe a third of all of that for my 421 build. Ask Daniel at Cuervo how much to make my raptor 700 make 90+ hp to the wheels? Its a lot of $$$ that’s for sure.

90hp raptor vs stock banshee

I really don’t want to coment on this, but it drove me crazy. Your information about the banshee being that fast is so wrong. The 660 was faster than the banshee and a stock 700 smokes it. When the yfz 450 came out it smoke the banshee also. Anyway fun video

It is very impressive what a modern technology Atv with a 700 cc engine from factory plus few extra modifications can do. But it is more impressive what a small engine with 1987 technology if you added just few cc about 71 cc (421) or may be few more what can dooo. Shees will still have half of the engine and CCs than a 700. And few more CCs will make 700 shit them self. My questio is aftee the big 3 on a craptor what mods they will be doing to beat a small 421 or 465 ? They will be ending putting a 2k 5mil crank. In real 300 FT drag racing there are no raptors you can count them with the fingers of your hands and thats because lf something. Just saying .two stroke all the way !!!!

Please list all his engine mods!

Of course it’s smoked because it’s STOCK!!! That Raptor is monster built…..

What dose the raptor have in it ?

KZfaqr MICHAEL SABO VODOO BANSHEE a dust that shit......

Look at him just blow me!! 🤣

what’s done to that raptor?

Who’s the 700 I want to send my 700 to get tuned

My banshee don't have much money put in it. And either I'm smoking a 700 or we are side by side

10-15k for a banshee build? Not sure about that- we have 4k in ours and well over 100. There are 4 mill builds that have 2500 in them. Plus weigh the two and I am sure the Banshee is lighter. Nice vid though.

wow nice can you give me a link to the installed cylinder and the engine processing?

4 strokes are about 1-1/2 times more expensive to build then a 2 stroke....No valves no timing chain, springs etc...Do your homework b4 talking shit...lol love da vids no bad vibes here just saying 😉

I’d still take the banshee

I git both and raptor over better quad but banshee u can make way faster cheaper I got both built

Disagree... iknow a lot off poeple got their banchee around 100 hp for couple thousand bucks.

He wasn't hittin dem gears rite on that banshee he was pose to power shift dat banshee twin errything 350 350 is 700

My stock 2001 banshee beat a 660 raptor

2k for 90hp raptor nope no way zero chance

Lol 😆 that raptor is no where nere 100hp bro also dollar for dollar your not touching a banshee,when you want to see what 100hp looks like bring that raptor up here ,

Cub cylinder and 20cc domes with ported jugs will crush Raptor

U are wrong. Banshee with 60 horse will beat raptor 700 with 90hp so easy.. $1,500 U can have 80hp easy

Sorry dude, but that reality is only in your garage. I have 3 banshees and two raptors and the hp on a Banshee is cheaper than hp on the raptor. I got 75hp on my Banshee for $3,500 in pump gas, it would make more on race gas. However, I spent almost the same amount on the raptor just on the empires exhaust, K&N, the DynoJet, and some other details, and never NEVER that Raptor smokes the Banshee. Don't get me wrong, the Raptor is a good platform, I have the best feom both worlds, but come on. There are a thousand combinations that you can do to a Banshee to get 70+ easily, with stock cylinders, stock head, stock carburetors. Here one real quick: *Exhaust.($1,000). *66.5 Blaster piston. ($200) *4mil crank.($500) *Cylinders bore and ported.($200) * A small cut to the Head.($65) *Carburator tune. ($150) *Labor. ($500) As you can see, less than $3k and you will make cry any Raptor with the same budget on it.

This video is ridiculous!! It’s like comparing a pinto to a vette!!

Yooo

A banshee isn’t a banshee if it ain’t piped. Yank off those stock shits ASAP

yoo

That’s a stock raptor I call bs there 45hp stock I got two lol 😂
