My daughter has been racing her Raptor 90 in our local XC series for the past year and a half. She has done really well and is getting fast enough that the stock shocks have become the limiting factor of her speed...time to upgrade. I called up my buddy at Hess Motorsports and ordered some Elka Stage 4 shocks for the front and stage 1 rear.
Major upgrade if you are trying to go fast on the Raptor 90. We haven't been to a race with them yet, but just riding around she says the difference is huge, and you can tell when she rides that the machine is actually responding to terrain instead of just bouncing over it.
Here's a pic of the fronts.
