Looks like David's bike is a 1999 model year bike registered in 2000, given the Showas and bronze frame in his avatar. In that case, all is as it should be.

Don't go scaring the poor guy!

I'm sure its very good, but I would be suspicious either about the year or the reason that Showa forks have been fitted.

All 2000 onward bikes had grey frame, if its bronze then its a 1999 model. All 2000 models were released with Ohlins front and rear. If its got Showa and its 2000, then they have been retro-fitted.

Sounds like mine is ok then as its 2000 W, ohlins and a grey frame!!! Ticks in all the boxes
