jw, i havent got in here yet but ive heard its a great improvent over the stock 300 shock, is it?

and on the front end of a 300, im really not wanting to change the arms out on it, what is going to be my best set-up for the front-end?

I had mine rebuilt and revalved for my daughter since its her race bike, the shop needed to replace the stock hose since it was leaking and used a 250r hose. it is a little bit longer and we mounted the res on the right side upgright just under the exhaust. I didnt want anything near the chain.

Came out looking really nice and she loves the ride.

I had to take the silonoid off to get the rezzie through.

Man its like night and day if its adjusted properly. My quad is getting some motor work done, so I took my dads stock 300ex for a ride. I could tell alot of difference in the whoops, and at high speeds that the raptor shock works alot better.

I mounted the one on my stepsons 300 the same place as everyone else. They are a night and day difference over stock. I have a +2 Leager swingarm and +2 Burguard a-arms with Elka Rec Series up front and this little 300 rivals my 450R with Derisi Revalves

It is a very soft plush ride compared to stock
