If you had a 200 setup with estart and a Rekluse and took it to events where women could demo ride it you could sell a bunch of them.
As far a suspension goes I look for the Zoke forks to improve quite a bit over the coming years. The way I understand it they were bought by the company who makes Monroe shocks and have a lot more capital for r&d. They are supposed to have some new 53mm works forks out that would be awesome on the nambotin or in the hardparts catalog.
What about the option to custom order a bike from the factory. I know Beta was trying something like this for a while.

Honestly, the custom order thing scares me to death! With the differences in languages, it is incredibly hard to get major things done with the factory. Getting a specific bike correct for the customer would be logistical nightmare. One mistake on the bike and I would have to eat it.
