I haven't heard great things about the front suspension. They are still using the straight axle on it. I would look at anything with independent suspension in the front.

I bought my daughter the Kasea 50. With the addition of a K&N, rejetting and fabbing up an FMF silencer, I am very impressed with how much it woke up. I'm sure the 90 would be great for the sand. They have tons of aftermarket parts for these. With it being a 2 stroke I'm sure an aftermarket pipe and K&N would make it rip. It would still be cheaper then the Raptor 80 even after modifying it and I'll bet a whole lot faster.

I like the Predator 90 also, but don't know too much about them.

I see that your from Cali. If you plan on riding on any sand (Glamis or the like) you will not like the 4 stroke.Sand will dictate a 2 stroke mini.
The baby,kasea,preditor,etc. are all good machines. No ragging here.

"Of course" you know what machine I recommend,but if I couldnt get one ,,I'd get a Kasea.
Good luck and have miles of smiles. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

the baby raptor is just the old badger with new plastic. an out dated machine with bad front suspension. i would expect better from one of the big brands like yamaha. most of the 2 stroke minis are very similar. most engine mods will work on allmost all of them. my son has a 1999 e-ton txl 90 that i just done a few mods too. i have added a wrh pipr, clutch kit, carbon fiber reeds, carb mods, big bore cylinder kit,holeshot front 19x10x6 front mx tires on douglas rims. i just got it running saturday and it will beat my warrior in a short drag race. good thing about the new e-tons is they have a hydrilic rear brake. the polaris predator 90 i have heard has a weak low end but it does have 4 inches of suspension travel where most other minis have 2 inches. kasea, e-ton, polaris, alpha sport, drr dinli suzuki lt's are all good minis. stay away from the chineese minis invading the market right now. most are junk and hard to get parts for

Baby Raptor? Yeah, It's a hell of a machine, they call it a E-Ton Viper 90.
