Haha. Wow speedy as there is pivots.

Only a few little ones. Went to Sti on a spare of the moment and did solid run after run. Takes the big berms like nothing else. It is really low the bike, not so much in the BB tho. I'm running the G3 in the shortest pos. all other adjustments middle of road. i test with less progression next.
This bike is built to last, strangely, thicker tubing it seems.

The paint looks like Mt Druitt Metallic(undercoat) with gloss over it...All Westies at heart will approve!

Ah, glad you got it feeling better! So adjusting the headset worked eh? Good old moo is good for sorting out how your bike works.

Catch ya there or at ox soon. Oh, it's nath on the V10

You can set the M9 up as either an M6 or a 951. You can also set it up anywhere in between! It is a rad bike, and I can't wait to build mine up.

Not sure about the frame weight but it would be similar to the M6. Watch this space for a weigh in result soon...

Ride her hard Jrewing! Sweet bike!

Sweet as Josh, looks amazing. About time you got this together.

I agree with the 2011 Fox 40's. Get some.

I think there could soon be 2 of these babies smashing the tracks at our locals. Keep your eyes peeled. The more the merrier I think.
