The warrior and banshee shocks are an inch too short. Non of the Honda's you listed would even bolt up (fork style bottom mount). The 660 shock though is exactly the right length and has the right mounts.

How much better is the raptor rear shock?

A lot better. The Honda is a total POS. See if you can find an 01 raptor shock and it will have a remote resi. Once you get it mounted up make sure you set the sag or it could feel a tad stiff.
