thats hilarious that your nambo is your first 2 stroke because i switched from a crf450x to a nambo after riding my buddies 2010 ec250 sixdays and to me i dont get why people say its a big jump! 2 me its 10 times easier riding a 2 stroke the first time i rode it, and i was definetly faster and a better hill climber! a well tuned four stroke is just as gnarly in my opinion only harder to ride because its so heavy and not as nimble. i think the nambo makes the transition even easier because the suspension is fairly dialed and you have a ton of very well tuned power. just my 2 cents

well i finally got to pick up the nambo, the dealer jetted it for me but have not taken it out to figure if its lean,rich or perfect. the set up is 175 main jd red needle middle notch and 40 pilot. i also installed my fastway f6's and am just waiting for my concept 1 cycra handguards to arrive. im also installing bike bonz for my handguard mounts and am using those for my dakota 20 gps. other than that just a hyde skid plate combo and scorpion rad braces. happy its finally in my garage!!!

I was looking on the gasgasons.com website and there is an article about the possibility of a Ludivine Puy replica bike, which would be similar to the Nambotin replica bike, different suspension settings though. In the extras breakdown it lists these as extras, this is the translated french version btw.
Just wondering if the Nambo comes with the bored carb and custom wheels?
Heres the link to the weight table its refering to, its in french so I cant understand most of it http://www.gasgasons.com/images/news-pics/134_1275819588.jpg
And heres a picture of the bike http://www.gasgasons.com/images/news-pics/134_1275816242.jpg

i think that is the best thing ive heard this year besides the release of the nambo! it sounds like it will be a nambo just with different plastic and frame color,maybe a60's for wheels which are a bit better than the nambos. but i can appreciate them coming out with something next year as "out of the box" different because i have quite a few friends that really wanted a nambo this year but for one reason or another,mainly availability could not do it this year. im pumped to see what the final bike looks like!
GasGas really needs a "Hard Parts" catalog of their own in North America. I have a brand new dealer so they have nothing in stock and don't really know what's out there. They have to call Dave for everything at this point. It'd be nice to have a catalog with body work, pipes, Ohlins TTX packages, jetting kits, bars, hand guards, skid plates and so on. A catalog full of GasGas parts that all GasGas owners could get their hands on...

im from calgary and claude at rockyridge motorsports will get whatever i need in super fast time(less than a week usually) hes a great guy to deal with as well just an example i ordered my hyde skid combo and rad braces from him and when i went to take delivery on my nambo he had all of it installed for me! now thats service
as for the run on the nambo i think the same thing gassers arent common out here anyway so why not keep a high end bike like this around. i like having a rare bike but its to sweet of a package to only have a few around.
i talked to an ohlins rep outta edmonton when i picked my nambo up and he said it would cost around 3500 bucks to retrofit if you purchased the ttx package from them. there the ones im going to have re-spring mine after i break it in as i know im going to be a bit heavy for it.

I fully agree. It is not a good situation for anyone right now. It would benefit everyone to know exactly what is out there and available for Gas Gas bikes.

If you wouldn't mind, could you ask your Ohlins rep about part #'s for springs required for a 150lb rider? Mine is definitely sprung too stiff for me to get proper sag.
