Dude inshore - I agree with you 100%. As you can probably tell I'm an amateur Vlogger still. The good news is your comment is inspiring me to do more because I wish the same of so many videos I watch. Honestly I'm going to take your advice and focus on the builds, Pros/Cons, and area filmed. One Million thanks for watching and excellent feedback I really appreciate it!

@@350iroc9 sir I think what you're doing is great. Way better than so many videos. Lol I'm sure you know what I'm talking about 🤣. Got to love the 30 second videos with banchee idle, and not one word mentioned. Or some donuts and or a burn out... I watch alot of fishing videos as well. And some of these guys are really good. They catch fish, but more importantly they are discussing things about the boat, the rod and reel, bait, ect. They have the biggest channels. I subscribed. Thank you for sharing your adventures

@@Floridawoodsbanshee Again thanks Dude! I'm so happy people take the time to watch and comment. I really am going to try for the next level and is the least I can do for all of you that watch my videos. It really sounds like we have a lot in common because fishing is my other passion! I ride around with a kids fishing rod sticking out of my backpack and can honestly say "I'm hooked on fishing!"

Thanks for watching Fiona!

Thanks man I appreciate the comment! Didn't I see you in a LITTLE SAHARA SAND DUNES video? If so how did you like that place?

@@350iroc9 anytime bro,Yea that was me, bro I had a great time those are wild dunes man I’m definitely going back next year

@@700rRaptorLife Sweet man I thought I recognized your handle! Can I ask what year is your Raptor and has it been a solid runner for you? I've never been to Little Sahara but have been to Glamis CA. around 10 times now. We have another trip coming up Feb-26 to March 6th. Have you ever made it out to those dunes?

Thanks for watching Braap! I just subscribed to you and will check out your vids!

Don't forget about popping the clutch with a side of blip! 😬

Well there is only 20 days left! I still want to go on one of your trips! Let me know an I'll take some time off!

@@350iroc9 I know! Running out of time and weather.. 😟 It’s probably not going to happen. Probably not even a day trip…. Too much work to do!

@@350iroc9 Also I’m sure we’ll be doing Wyoming and Oklahoma sometime around may/June!

Like Zombies over your way? Move to Ohio! Everyone is super cool around these parts!

I absolutely love my 450! Yesterday I was riding my buddies 2020 Raptor and I'm glad I went the 450 route. The only down side is the amount of money I needed to sink into it from stock. The stock exhaust sounds like a sewing machine. Once you upgrade the exhaust now you need some form of fuel programmer. Next the AIS emissions has to go and its up to you if you want an intake. After its all said and done its an absolutely amazing machine! You can drive it fast or you can drive it slow - it doesn't care. It has tons of power and is easy to drive yet is very good on gas consumption. I have a hour meter and after 3 years of ownership and 65 operating hours nothing has worn out. Yamaha's build quality is second to none and couldn't be happier with it. I hope that answers your question and thank you for watching!

And also how does it handle in glamis? Especially me being a big dude im heavy set you think the banshee could pull me around or should i go with the 450

If you are heavy set then 450 all day is the best option. The Banshee in Glamis really has to work with a big fella piloting it. They will boil easily with aggressive sand paddles. The 450 is so much easier to ride in the dunes and gets twice the gas mileage. I've had zero issues in my 65 hours of operation with the 450. In fact the only reason I have it is because I burned up my Banshee's electrical system in Glamis because it got too hot. If you have never owned a Banshee before then just skip it honestly. They are way too expensive now. Spend your time riding and not working on it all the time is my recommendation. You won't be disappointed with a 450. I also think the 450 is a better quad than the Raptor if you were considering it.

So what did you end up with?

@@350iroc9 thanks again brotha for reaching back out! I went with the 450 how you recommended and i don’t regret it at all brotha i love it so much. I put the HMF full exhaust, fuel customs intake, & the power commander 5 tune, AIS delete, new oil breather, & i take it friday to have it dyno tuned on the machine and she will be dialed in! She is a beast man handles really well with me being a heavy dude.

@@ghammababy3992 Wow that is awesome and you are doing it the right way! With everything you mentioned you will have unleashed the full potential of the 450 and have it dialed in for a happy healthy life! My last recommendations as an FYI is to keep an eye on that FCI intake where it clamps to the throttle body. If you installed it yourself then you already know that there is not much room for that boot to bite onto it. That clamp is known to get loose after several heat cycles so re-torque it from time to time. Its so tight in there and hard to see as you probably already know. Next is battery care. For whatever reason my Vortex ECU will drain my battery if it sits to long. I don't know about the power commander but I've made it a practice to disconnect the negative battery cable after every trip so that doesn't happen anymore. I'm positive you made the right choice! Don't get me wrong I love my Banshee but will also admit I suffered for years trying different combinations of parts and settings before finally getting it right. Again congratulations and wishing you safe smiles for miles!

Hi Kobie! Me and some friends will be there this weekend if your available and would welcome you! I've got some ribeye steaks to share! Thanks for watching!
