Cervantes Replica

[dublin]

I have a 2011 250 cc and i am thinking about selling it and have been offered a cervantes replica at a good price what i want to know is there much difference in the power delivery i like the power in the 250 i have and i am a bit worried the cervantes might be a bit to harsh maybe more motocross like but i dont know as i havent rode i would love to hear from people who have rode both bikes just to get an idea of differences or if there is any as i just dont know grateful for any help

Dublin,
My 11 Nambotin Replica has less bottom and more mid range power than the stock bike due to the use of a higher compression dome in the head. I got Mark at Go Fasters to order me a set of inserts for the S3 head and I plan to change the one in the bike so that it has a more stock like powery delivery. I don't know if the Cervantes has the same power characteristics but it would be easy to change if you don't like it.

Thanks for your reply what do you mean by inserts do you mean you have to alter the barrell to change the head back to standard and are you changing back because you find thepower a bit harsh the reason i ask is i bought one of the first race replicas back in 06 with the full ohlin set up i loved it but found it was a great bike for hare and hounds but very tiring to ride in enduro i think it had the motocross ignition on it anyway i am just intrested because i like all the bling on the cervantes but love the power on my standard 250 thanks again for reply

our gg dealer rides the Cervantes and that bike is sweet. Forks are awesome and a TTX shock. A very NICE upgrade over the standard bike.

The replica bikes come with an aftermarket S3 head, which has interchangeable inserts to alter compression. http://www.trialendurodirect.com/pro...nufacturers=15

Sorry. Noobi is correct. The bikes have an S3 head with interchangeable inserts. I will put one in that lowers the compression and gives more bottom end power and less hit in the middle.
