madaboutbikes Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 (edited) no not really. i have the 2007 racing model and it is mint. But ihave tried the standard one with the khilin carb and there is really no difference. Edited March 8, 2007 by madaboutbikes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seandellear Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Don't they come with the ohlins shock fitted aswell? Surely this must make a difference! I would say if you can stretch the Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north_yorkshire_lad Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 they don't come with an ohlins shock and the magnesium crankcases are the same on a standard bike but there painted gold ( thats what haven told us), the swing arm is differnt though. the only thing differnt that i would want on a standard one is the aluminium forks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seandellear Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 My bad! The 06 did though didn't it? Aren't the alluminium forks the same as the 250 ones? So they are for heavier/harder riders,so they have a harder spring rate and that? Are you going to buy one NYL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasgasthermo Posted March 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 i was just Wondering Because hopefully im gettin a brand new bike next year and was seeing how many people thought it was worth the extra over the standerd 1 hopefully there still do 1 next year and i hope they go back to the ohlins shock lot better in my opinion. Dose any 1 know if there are any performance upgrades? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north_yorkshire_lad Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Will have to wait till tomorrow and then i'll tell you sean . In my opinion the alu forks have a better action and feel easier to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seandellear Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 I have ridden my mates 06 racing and they feel lush! I find I can really tell the difference with the ohlins shock and lighter swing arm! I was told they had a higher compression head and electric upgrade to allow them to rev-harder but this just may have been rumours and I'm not sure on this! Hope tomorow goes well NYL!

telecat Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 (edited) NYL has been working at The ones who cannot be named this week on work experience. He went to pick up the bike from Shirty's and is currently PDI'ing it and fitting the various bits he has bought ready. (Renthal Fat Bars and clamps, coloured hydraulic lids etc). Only has to transfer the Shock and Carb to complete it. Edited March 22, 2007 by Telecat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
