Whatever there reasoning is, it seems to me like a poorly laid out plan to showcase there flagship bikes at the end of summer right before the 12's are released. Just my 2 cents

You know, Trev....I agree. I asked the factory why they do this and was told that it was done late in the year to create some excitement about the brand during the lull between the last release of the non replica bikes and the coming year's models. Seems backwards to me, too. Also, the bikes were later this year due to a vendor's delivery problems. Our bikes were 40 days later than planned due to this one vendor.

Clay, do the '11 Nambos have the new linkage like the '12s?

Guys how cool is to have the man "Clay" on this site answering our questions? Thanks Clay. gasmonkey glad to hear the RACE comes with the extra stuff. I'm 99% sure my next bike will be a 200 RACE.

I'm thinking 300 Race or '12 300 XC. After years on 250s I'd like to try a 300 but I'll be keeping my 250 for a little while too. If I can't get along with the 300 I could always make it a 250. Plus I have an option to pick up a GG125 cheap to use as a small bore racer/project bike.

Just built up the nambotin replica today. Bike is stunning. Shock and linkage is much different than my 250 six days was. My other TTX shock had the csc adjuster mounted on a totally different side of the shock.

Enjoy

THe Cervantes and Nambo both have the new linkage.

Holy cow, Cole! How did you get that bike blinged out so quick? You just got it yesterday, right? Did Richard get any sleep last night?

Despite it technically being an '11 model, in reality it has everything the standard '12s will have and a lot more. So its more like an early '12.

Just trying to cheer the poor guys up that got them so late.
