Default Cervantes bike at the factory
I was at the factory last week and got to go into the race shop. There was a bike on a stand that was pointed out to me to be Ivan's race bike. Naturally I went over to find out all kinds of secrets and boy was I surprised. It is incredibly stock. It had a Rekluse clutch with a Rekluse cover with his name on it. It had 48mm Zoke forks and an Ohlins 888 shock (not even a TTX!). It has stock gearing, stock pipe and silencer, stock bars, etc.
Maybe they went to all of the trouble to put Ivan's numbers and graphics on a slightly used bike to fool me? Naaaaaw......
Clay

That was always the whole point of buying a GasGas in the first place. It's ready to race out of the box.

I didn't have a camera with me but I did have my phone. Honestly, I didn't even think to take pics because I was studying the bike so hard. Sorry!
