baldilocks Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 Them factory stickers are a lot lighter too Yes and I think thats the only factory bits you get with the Repsol replica, oh alright you get a headlamp which you then remove and put on a trials number board......... Gets up my nose a bit which probably shows in this post ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copemech Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Only the finest titanium used in those stickers! No more lead based paint, except for the wheels! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mostar Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 (edited) Was at a world indoor and I picked up bou"s bike back end when no one was looking , Shhhhhh (Yes and he was not on the bike ) Yes it did feel Light , not standard any way, but maybe there should be a rule that they have to ride them standard straight out of the box ,, HaHa Did get to pick up Raga"s as well and they felt the same to me , Shhhhhhh.

nigel dabster Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Aside from a from a "few" thousand Pounds of titanium and magnesium, no difference. Well there is alot of differences actually, think you will find the frame and forks and shock are all different/special. had a good look at Amos' bike at the ssdt and it has a different headstock position engine moved up and back different sump plate etc. if he has that much bou will too. wheels look the same though.

Speaking of all that, the spindly framed Raga? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
