    I’m 56 I had the first Honda 250R three wheeler in my town in ky. Back in 85 … it was the fastest thing in the woods and the lake flats until my best friend bought a banshee a few years later it was a beast! It always beat me in a drag race!

      For sure I felt that I was a long haul truck driver for 20 years and you get to think and see a lot on the road literally driving my life away. I realized a lot of things I may have had nice house thank God it provided for my kids they never lacked anything every 2 to 3 years I'd get ex-wife a new Eddie Bauer or Navigator my point is I missed everything I never enjoyed much the fruit of my labor but more importantly my family the true blessings in life pardon me for all that I finish by saying I lost my mom and I cherished tried to makeup for all those years still I'm grateful for the last 4 years almost everyday I saw them and enjoyed time together I still have my father thank God but he's up there very fragile I want to be with him helping him just anything hangout. Also many years ago I made a choice to let everyone know I love them that they really hear and feel my love for them because this life is way too short and sensitive your treasures are those people who you love and love you nothing is more valuable. Thank you again & Blessings to All of Y'all and Fam.

Plus head work, taller sprocket up front and smaller out back. Plus changed tire size up front to 23x7 and out back 22 inches tall.

    I like that you let ur kid ride trikes. I have a son around the same age and taught him how to ride such "horrifically dangerous" 🙄 machines the right way and he never got hurt on one. In my opinion a three wheeler is only dangerous to inexperienced riders. Never had a problem on them myself in 40yrs and rode and raced them. Prefer my YZ250's but like having a three wheeler for fun.

It was always the same. 250r would launch off the line until about 4th and by than the banshee was waking up and would catch up and start to walk away. Gotta do it on blacktop, 250r front end wasn't even coming up. Missing out on bulk of power.

    The Banshee is undeniably fast. But what I really take from this vid is just how good the old 250r is to hang in there that well against a twin cylinder engine with 100cc more displacement. Couple times I hear the R, it sounded like you may have shifted into the 5th and 6th a little early. I think if you let it eat a little more the ol' R would have narrowed the gap a bit. Not trying to be hyper critical, just a casual observation by a guy who owns a pair of 3rd gen Rs and been riding them since the early 1990s. Yeah, we can get into how to better get the power to the ground with better tires, suspension setup, etc, but this was a very cool video to watch as are your other installments. Very much enjoyed 🙂 Carry on fellers and keep those legends alive!! 🤘🏻

    • @TheMapleDude1
      @TheMapleDude1  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Great comments. Yes that R was a little weak going into 6th gear. It's different than my Tri Z and T3 in that regard. So we have yo keep the RPMS higher there. Funny thing about all these videos is we get people telling us we shift too early and others say too late... all within the same video. Oh well, we're having fun.

    I just did a little math and the 250R has a slightly better power-to-weight ratio than the Banshee. I would expect the R to win on paper. Of course gear ratio and tire size make a difference. Adding rider weight also throws off the ratio math. This formula works better with cars. Just divide weight by horsepower. Anyway, here are the numbers:
    1986 Honda ATC250R
    38 horsepower
    289 pounds
    7.60 pounds per horsepower
    2005 Yamaha Banshee 350

    386 pounds
    8.04 pounds per horsepower

      @@TheMapleDude1 Agreed. Adding a 160 to 190 pound rider makes a big difference on these small machines. For what it is worth, the ATC even has a slight power-to-weight ratio advantage over Quadzilla. That is why I thought the R had a chance to win your tournament.

Even though the 250R does have a better power-to-weight (P2W) ratio than the Banshee and Quadzilla without riders, once you add the rider weight, the R comes in last place. I added you and Jack’s weights to the P2W ratio below. It looks like the closest race between these 3 should be you on Quadzilla vs. Jack on the Banshee.

That thing would sing. The Honda’s were the slowest at the start, then they would take off and leave us. The banshee had displacement, the Quad Racer had a power valve and the Honda had everything else.

    I had a 250R quad back in the day and all my buddies were running banshees, in a straight line the banshee had the advantage but when it came to getting in and out of corners and the jumps my 250 ate them up. I saved up some money and had my uncle work some magic with my engine in his machine shop and developed a 270 custom big bore setup that evened the score. A stock banshee had no chance after he got done with his wizardry. Those mid 80s early 90s Honda 250 engines were pretty stout to begin with but became monsters when you started messing with bore, stroke, port timing, reeds, carberators, and freer flowing exhausts.
    It would be interesting to see what kind of power these two strokes would have made if innovation had continued and they hadn't been replaced by the four stroke bikes entirely. A four stroke does not have the same level of invigoration when it is in its power band. I liken the sound of dozens of 2T engines in the power band to a symphony orchestra four strokes are more like a bass drop CD lol! Great video be safe you two and have fun.

    @GixxerKris 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    You can tell the first race the banshee ran pretty strong, but as the races went on you were getting more and more clutch slip. Usually it’s not the actual clutch plates that cause that. The stock clutch springs are pretty weak in those machines and after a while when they get hot (like back to back races) they lose their spring rate and cause clutch slip especially in 3-6th gear. Get a set of heavy duty springs, they are cheap and only takes 20-30 min to replace them. It will be a whole different machine. I have had 5 banshees since 1998 when I got my first new one and that is always the first thing I do is at rid of the weak stock clutch springs. A lot of times people will think it’s the clutch plates and change them but leave the stock springs and after a few rides they will be back to slipping again.
