Out of those 2 I prefer the Banshee, but a desperate seller may or may not work to you're advantage. An un-maintained Banshee is a time bomb. The Raptors have just never impressed me. The power is nice, but not as explosive as a new 450, and they just feel so dang tippy. They improved the handling slightly with the 700, but they still creep me out to try to ride at any kind of pace.


I suggest looking into something like:

The YFZ's are IMO one of the best all around quads out there. Awesome in the woods, awesome on an MX track, can hold their own on a drag strip, etc. The motor is nearly identical to that of the WR450 bike, VERY reliable. Cam mod, exhaust, jetting, lid off and you'll be able to outrun you're average mildly built Banshee or Raptor.
