    Maybe I read it wrong but I thought it was the same length/height and 2 pounds lighter than this years model. Do we get the same specs as the states?

    his profile says so

    My wr weighs f’all when i’m riding it and 200kg when i have to pick it up from the bottom side of a hill

    Are we cockin on about weight again :silly:

    I apparrently just bought one of the heavier (performance ag )bikes on the market and it handles like a dream and turns on a dime

    its taller than my old weapon >………i was a bit concerned about that before i smashed some trails

    So stop cockin on about weight and handling until you’ve riden every bike available on every trail there is (cause i have done this of course) :whistle:

    But in all seriousness its handling not weight

    its all a compromise between power (being a very broad word there are a few different aspects involved)and agility …………and being able to pick it up when you fall off

    and just to keep this thread on topic i might even use some ct18 and silicon spray to keep my steed clean :laugh:
