Now, if you have one of those bikes that has never been ridden, you'll get your money back, plus some.
The Jack Pine edition had a full-on Ohlins shock (apparently they had done the initial PDS development) as compared to the standard 200s WP legs, and supposedly replacement blue plastic was available only to owners of the special edition bikes. If memory serves correct Dirt Rider did a feature on the JP.
