laser1 Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Nope - Those are the new "regular" 10 bikes. All the bikes have the new adjustable comp heads as well as several other feathures previously only found on the Raga's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jse Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Thats great news, and good luck with your new bike! I hope in a few weeks I will have mine! Today I rode the U.S. GG importer's bike, a gold frame 09' Raga 300, which has many of the 2010 regular features on it. The only changes were a 28mm OKO carb and a special V-Rubber rear tire (new, ultra soft type). It was amazingly smooth and easy to control. The suspension (Sach rear and Marzocchi front) worked very well in the wet, rocky uphill creeks I was able to try it out on. I have an 02' 280 Pro that I'm very comfortable on after 7+ years, but I found it very easy to quickly adapt to the new frame geometry. It seems a lot more stable and it sure turns a lot better than my 02' (which handles very well, the 02' frame is a little different than the newer Pros). I think you'll be quite happy with yours.

toofasttim Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 Thw 2010 has an "improved" kick start mechanism. Anyone know specifically what the improvements are? BNG? Earlier versions had a habit of breaking the "gear" that engaged on the clutchdrum. It was more noticible on the Raga because of the higher compression ratio.

It was more noticible on the Raga because of the higher compression ratio. Im unfortunately intimately aware of the well documented KS failures - would love to know what specifically has been improved. The latest change that I know of was the "quicker" pawl enguagement provided by the new spiral angle KS shaft. Anyone know what else the KS's on the 2010's have?
