2010 and 2013 Rake angle and trail
Anyone got any specs (or able to obtain the specs from Gas Gas?) regarding this? I'd like to have a go at measuring on my own but doubt it will be very accurate.

27 Degrees (approx)
Used some imagery from the gasgasmotos website and applied a bit of this and that. Few different times and pretty certain this is it. |

Both thee 10 & 13 are 27 degrees?

Didn't put as much effort into the 2010 model. May have been 26.5 degrees. Main focus is on the 2013 for the fork conversion.

I wonder if they altered the rake angle on the 2011 nambo models? The welds are as clean as my other bikes anyway. No way in hell I could measure it accurately, especially if it's only half a degree.

I think it was only the earlier models that had altered steering angles.. but can't confirm 100%

i loaded a pic from gg onto autocad and measured the angle at 26.6 for the 2013 and 26.2 for the 2010

The butt dyno confirms this, you definitely loose some low speed turning and gain some smash through stability, IMHO it's a good move forward as the bike can still be ridden easily in the rocks, rails ruts heaps better, canes whoops and is great when you get tired.

Agree re butt dyno, and also the way the bike responds to certain sag figures. Very different between the two models, so quite some variance in linkage as well.
Matt, would you be kind enough to do the same with a Beta image and see what figures you come up with in autocad? |

27.4 for a 2015 beta
don't take these as exact, as i have to eyeball the centre of the forks and the ground line to a certain degree (I am also not sure if they have their sag set correctly ;-)
