'11 Six days or '13 300R

A 360 would be very nice!!
I'm looking at a few 2011 models (six days, race, elec, and nambotin) and they all say they have 48mm closed zokes... Are they trying to pull a swiftly on me or what!?

Pretty sure the Race and Nambo are CC

[forgiven]

And YES a 360 kit would be sweet.

So contrary to what my wallet says, I'm going with a '13 300R as my brother wants a new EC200 so we'll hopefully cut ourselves a nice deal!
Are there any mods that anyone recommends tht I should do straight up? I'm liking the look of a power valve cover..

The Six Days and electrics were the old 45s - race and Nambo should be 48CCs. The easy identifier is the three-legged PFP adjuster in the center of the top cap on the 48s vs a stand up nut on the 45s.

So right as I'm about to lock in a '13 300R, I nice looking nambo has come up at a reasonable price (second hand of course... But still a nambo!) What's everyone think now? How would the nambo compare to a new R? It seems to be in quite reasonable condition (no pipe dings etc)

The nambo comes with Ohlins TTX? If yes, it is too cool to let go.
(But too stiff to average 140lb weekend guy)

The nambo comes with some bling and ajustable triple clamps, nice hubs, S3 engine head, footpegs... it?s a machine to consider with care.

Yeah I'm liking it more and more but rather expensive for a 2-3 year old second hand bike..
