So I finally got my bucket out to the sand yesterday....

Comp MPH -52

Banshee Hill MPH - 54

Conditions were alright...90's and the sand was OK. This was on 21x12x8 6 Paddle Brats...(These tires OWN my old haulers in every way BTW)

Just for comparison's sake....Bolt on YFZ's(Full pipe, cam mod, intake, CDI box's) were going 43-44mph on comp and about 45 on Banshee Hill...so thats great if your old stock 250R went 137mph up both hills 6 years ago, but YESTERDAY thats what people were doing.

Also got a stock LTR going 36mph :( and a pretty trick Banshee going 60ishMPH up comp :fro:

One of the guys had a video camera, not sure how much he got...I know for sure he got the Banshee Hill runs...I'll check with him and see if I can get it.

my buddy got mine to go 71.4 off-road and i got it to go 75 on pavement (not fully pinned yet)[/b]
Thats about right....its gear limited, they have plenty of power to go faster...Mine was going 75ish on pavement bouncing off the limiter

I'm saying that's pretty good. Anytime you are low to mid 50's up comp, you are hauling the mail! :scoot:

Im gonna be on U2 at Banshee Wars this weekend, hopin it will get 1 or 2 more MPH out of this turd..on top of that its SUPPOST to be 10* cooler or so...cant hurt.

Im gonna get an ass crack full of sand from a lot of the bikes out there but should be good for shits and giggles :)

Hopefully at least scare some of these guys...most of the LTR's I've seen in the sand are pretty embarassing slow...so they shouldnt be expecting much :)
