Montu looks way better, but I haven't been on either of them.

They're equal for me. They both have strong forces, but silverbullet's are stronger. Also, Montu has a better drop. Silver bullet has that cool over-banked curve, while Montu has a batwing

MONTU FTW!

Ridden both and I've got to say Montu. The helix was cool on Silver Bullet but the ride felt much more slow than Montu. Also Montu has the famous batwing.

i dont know. Both are just mediocre to me. Although I think i would give montu the benefit of the doubt as its longer, more inspired, and overall more interesting then bullet. Fun factor, though, they're on par with each other.

Personally I would say Montu is better, but not by a lot.

I was at BG yesterday and got 3 rides on montu, 2 on the front and one back and i gota say in the usa coasters i been on Montu might just have risen back to top, Don't get me wrong i love Silver Bullet,the final 2 wingovers are awesome with that little transistion in betweeen, but as i found out yesterday on the back row that batwing is insane, we hit the trim which sadly i felt only slightly though then BAM!!! It felt like a 4 Vennesa Feltz' had been thrown in the front seats, the snap over the batwing and pull down into the trench was one of the most forcefull element's ive ever faced, plus on my last ride of Montu at night that Trim i assumed has been switched off becuase there was no Clank! And we sommersaulted straight into the batwing with the grace of an eagle, plus the Final Wingover gets me every time.!!! Get Ready for the Terror Of Montu!

Eh, Montua isn't anything special. Go ride Afterburn or Flight Deck if you want a forceful B&M.

Well, Montu, asthetically, is much more pleasing. It's almost much more, intense I guess. It's much taller, I presume, and it also has many more inversions. The only thing that I would love to see on Montu from SB is that overbank. Not to mention Montu has that batwing and the second loop.
So, my friend came up to me the other day and asked if I wanted a frozen banana, and I said no, but I want a normal banana later, so... yea.

^^ True. Patriot could whup Silver Bullet since it's a close to clone of Talon.

Easily Montu but Afterburn, Flight Deck, Nemesis and Black Mamba are all better overall.
