So i found this bike for a good price I'm picking it up in a few days. It's going to be a spare bike so when  buddies come to the house they have something to fool around on. It was listed as a 2013 and my first thought was the seller was just incorrect on the year. The more I research i think it actually is a 2013 (10th character of VIN is N). I think its some kind of economy version that used old left over frames and cheaper suspension and brakes. If that's true I don't know anything about this version. Can anyone fill me in on details? Specifically the suspension and brakes?

It is the same as a 2010 model . It was fitted with cheapo tyres Pirelli MT43 that are not proper competition  tyres, I think the rear shock was a OLLE the forks should be Marzocchi steel stanchioned forks  as most 125cc  pros had until the TECH forks appeared when Marzocchi went bust.  go to www.thehellteam.com and search under Tech support GasGas info.
