Question Nambotin or Cervantes replica?

Is this a Nambotin or Cervantes replica?
Looks to have KYB forks.

I dont think it is either. I think it is just a Race Model bike with some KYBs on it. They also may be Ohlins tubes? I have heard that the Ltd Edition bikes may come with complete Ohlins forks, not just TTXs.

I wonder if KYBs are in future plans for the bikes. I suppose its possible if the volume goes up enough.

Its most likely a Nambotin Race model.

Up until a few years ago the GasGas factory team would line up a majority of the sponsores (and the exclusive use of their equipment) and then require that the whole team use those products, no exceptions.

That was then, this is now where some of the riders are allowed to use different products if they have that support.

I know Nambotion played around a little with alternate suspension last year and I believe it was KYB. He also tried some aftermarket chain guides as well. Ironically both of those products were the ones that failed him with his string of DNFs.

a little birdy told me that there will be a cervantes model this year, it will be a 250cc with 48mm zokes on the front and all the bling that the nambo has(lots of trick parts).
