Post by: atvtrailer on January 11, 2005, 05:42:02 PM

Everyone of the bikes you listed is designed for a different application, all good at what they were ment for.

chillin said it,

DS650IS THE BEST BIKE

The YFZ would be the best if you run MX, the Banshee for some MX and some sand drags, the Blaster and Raptor for trails, jumping and drags.

It all depends what kind of riding you do and how you ride. The YFZ would be the best for all kinds of riding but the blaster and raptor will be best on trails. The banshee will be for a sand duner. The YFZ is uncomfrotalble on trails but is a really good racer. IT comes down to what you ride the most of. ;)

go with the raptor.

I got the 05 YFZ 450 2 months ago, and haven't stopped grinning since! The only drawback I can see to it is the lack of a reverse gear. but it all depends on how much backing up you do when you ride. I've ridden it in the ocala trails, MX, and in California mountains, and I couldn't possibly ask for more in a quad.

the best all around for all types is the 450 like the last man said lack of reverse so I think get the suzuki 400 has reverse and a few mods you can run with a 450


Title: Re: blaster or banshee or raptor660 or yfz450
Post by: 450SE on March 14, 2005, 07:46:28 AM
If a reverse is a determining factor for you, I would go with the Raptor 660. My brother has one, and can keep up with my 450 in the trails. He's just a little slower on the track.

Post by: YFZ450AndyH on March 31, 2005, 09:12:18 AM
YFZ overall, unless you plan on mostly trail riding.  Then the Raptor would be the best bet.

??? The Raptor is usually considered one of the best sport quads for the trails, and it's only 26lbs more than the Z400.

yea but ya gotta add the 120lbs of mud hanging from it. i guess it just felt heavy but it is a bad bike.

YFZ 450 and Raptor 660 are the best in the group donnt get a blaster i owned one and there loaded with problems.

Post by: Reefer650 on May 05, 2005, 01:23:33 PM
I think the blasters are perfect begginer bikes and the raptors are slow but out of all its the yfz that makes the potatoes tinglin


Title: Re: blaster or banshee or raptor660 or yfz450
Post by: eric on May 05, 2005, 03:12:56 PM
I say Raptor or YFZ450. Raptor seems to be a bit more tippy than the YFZ. Go to a dealer and sit on them to get a feel. Blaster is kinda small for a full size adult from what I have seen but great for smaller people. If I had one choice prob YFZ450.

Post by: YamahaWarrior350 on May 05, 2005, 07:13:44 PM
I like the YFZ 450 dont get a two stroke they got too much work

I dont know about the best but I do know that the banshee is the worst, they are slow, unreliable, and they are super UGLY!!!

 sorry but the fastest stock quads are still the banshees and its been that way for over a decade, unreliable??? maybe if you dont keep up on the maitnance ...and ugly you say????? the banshee is still the coolest looking quad and it and it looks same as it did in the mid 80's... i love when people speak about things they know nothing about.....the only people who say bad things about a banshee are those who have never rode one.....

You need to just get a Dvx (one of the fastest 400s on the market).What kind of riding will you be doing on it?

I could be mistaken, but..I was in belief that the DVX was the same as the Z/KFX400  ??? So what is it that makes it any faster than a Z/KFX?
