Isn't it supposed to have black fork tubes? Or is the LXR 12 the only "2009.5" ? Sick bike though.

I think the marzocchi's are black, but the standard forks are gold...

You mean on the front fork or rear shock?

Wandell · 10-31-2009, 11:20 AM

He means the rear shock, where it mounts to the frame. Man, I want one of those! But there is only so much money and my son asks for a 65cc MX bike at least once daily.

lets see some pics of you on it (size comparison) how tall are you? what kind of suspension travel does it have?

i dont want the specs off the website BUT i want your thoughts

When you do all the measurement's,real close to the jap 85's.The back end eat's up bump's as good as any 85(stock)and the front is pretty good,but not at level of the backend.Handling,it's awesome,cockpit is roomy,and it's a real fun bike to ride.To me, this bike should have come with at least a 10 inch travel fork,but for a 1st run of a model, they produced a awesome bike.Well worth the money.
