2011 Gas Gas are over the top, best colors since early days. I'll have a 300 soon. It's a real plus to have an energy base with the new importers. The Six Days should prove impressive box stock.

When will we get to see the Nambotin and the race version for 2011. I love the look of the 2011 bikes .The six days is my favorite so far.
Silver,
The Race models will be produced in January which means February delivery to the US. The Nambo Replica will be produced in April so May delivery.
Six Days 250s and 300s are supposed to ship to the US this week.

Clay,
Any insight as to what they may look like and how many Nambotins will becoming state side. On a side note our importer has some skill great job at the National.I know some of the guys you beat in Senior A . You must get thru the woods pretty well. Was your ride a 2010 or a 2011.Thanks

Clay was on a Nambotin with the Rekluse EXP at the Maine National so I assume the same for the last national. Stock suspension was not so friendly in the Maine rocks and I assume he had it revalved. The new life blood he brings to GG in the US has been awesome.

So, no Red Tank 250cc until spring? Is the 250cc still rider friendly or more of a power band for an expert, evry little low end? Six Days are presumably rocket ships, not for the faint of heart i understand. Any ideas Clay......
Ugh. I am gonna puke. Comments like these go straight to Stuckeys head just like beer goes to his gut.
Sorry just thought he deserved some credit for being fast. Big heads don't fit thru tight tree's well but beer guts seem to just fine lots of guys with beer guts race enduro's. I"m starting to think there is some kind of gravity help or something maybe just better traction. OOP's off track back to 2011 Nambotin.

Thats OK. I am just joking around. He is really fast for an old, fat guy.

Siver,
I ordered 30 but I honestly doubt I will get that many since that will be 15% of the total production. It's an expensive unit. It will prolly be priced over $10K. I haven't a clue what it will look like.
Thanks for the note on my finish at the national enduro. I just turned 50 earlier this year so it makes me feel good to beat some of the guys in the "younger" class. I could move to Super Senior but I want to ride the whole course. If I'd get my fat ass in shape, I might do a little better but I have to admit I do like my beer!
I rode a 2010 Nambo. The suspension was really harsh but we're getting closer. Bart Hayes revalved it for me. He said the original valving looked like a MX set up. It's still a little harsh but I think I can go a little stiffer on springs to get it to ride higer in the stroke and it will be perfect then. Even with the original heavy valving, the bike still tracked good over roots and rocks....it just beat the crap out of me!

Skidad,
Same bike, different valving and springs but still need one set heavier springs.
I always use a Rekluse. I love those things!
It's getting better! Thanks for the compliment. I'm having fun and the response from guys like you has been awesome!
Thanks again!

Marzocchi 48mm fork and Sachs 888 shock on the racing model 250 and 300.
45mm 'zoke on the 125 and 200 Race with Ohlins 888 shock.
The Nambo replica will be produced in April so it will be here in May.

Gas Stroke,
Not real sure what you mean by Red Tank 250.
The 250 has great low end, especially in the"rainy" map.
Six Days motors are pretty much the same as the standard model. I understand that the Race version has a bigger hit. That's what I have been told. I haven't ridden either one yet.

So Scott calls me up this morning and wonders when I'm going to respond to his jab. I've had some kind of virus this week and have been MIA for a couple of days so I had not seen this. I started feeling better yesterday afternoon so I'm back up to speed now.
How should I respond to this? For those of you who do not know, Scott and I are good friends. We go back and forth on emails and my brother just shakes his head. Ted emailed me last week that we had gotten a check from Scott and I replied that it would prolly bounce!
Scott has a point about beer going to my gut. I've added a few pounds in the last 12 months and part of it is because he has smuggled a few cases of good, strong Canadian beer over the border to me when he comes to a race here in the US. What really burns him up though is that I am older, fatter and FASTER than him!
I don't think I'm going to respond yet. The wait will be worse for him because he knows I'm gonna get him back , somehow!

Haven't gotten a cost from Spain yet. I don't think we will get it until after the first of the year but I expect it to be well over $10K.
