Well , after a month of Riding the new Nambo , all i can say is HOLY CRAP , this bike is way better than last years
The power is scary , i have had a 06 300 (very fast bike) a 09 300 (typical impossible to jet 09 300) a 10 Nambo (the smoothest and quickest response) and now the 11 Nambo , and i can say without a doubt that the power this engine can and does make has on more than one occasion scared the crap outa me
it is totally controllable , but if you hit a bump and land a little on the throttle , hang on , it just wakes up and pulls like no tomorrow
the torque this engine makes is something im still getting used to , and i thought i knew what a 300 could do , nope , i feel like im riding one for the first time all over again
and it transfers that power to the ground in a very impressive way , this bike hooks up very well with the new shock angle and linkage
The Zokes up front are better for my liking than the stock TTX from last year , i find the front of the bike is way more flickable with the improved traction and the front feels very light but incredibly stable at speed
I have not got my scotts damper on it yet (under mount bracket being made this coming week for the new top clamp and hole spacing) and yet it still feels very good at speed
have not noticed any deflecting or any thing scary at all
AND after all this i finally got the E-Start finished a couple of days ago , and i rode a night ride last night with it and im still giggling and grinning about it. Who knew having a E-Start 2-Stroke was such a good idea and so much fun , especially since i was with a bunch of Pumpkin's with E-Start's , sure turned their heads quick when i hit the button , they didnt know what to think, lol , had to be there , it was damm near worth the price of the kit when they found out that Gasser's could do that too
Thanks to Reverup for the heads up on the Shoria Battery , works great and weighs nothing , and now i can power my HID lights off of the Bike if needed , Bike Battery = More Night Riding Time !!
No more 2 - 2.5 hour limitations to the Trail Tech Battery , now it will be only me that has the limitations
To sum it all up , i would do it all again in a heart beat
and if you have been wondering if the Nambos are worth the extra money ??
YES THEY ARE , period
just make sure you have a good supply of clean shorts , the thing can stretch your arms out really fast
and BTW , everything with the exception of my scotts damper fit right on it from the 10 Nambo and the 09 300 , and the only reason the scotts is a prob , is because im under mounting it this time and the new top clamp is a little different , but that is being solved this week by Straitline Components , in Sidney , BC , and now a shameless link to the site
Thank DJ for the help with this
