Mastiff/Baghira diferences ?

[andybury]

Hi guys , anyone out there know the differences between the Mastiff and the Baghira in terms of frame geometry etc is the steering head angle/rake any different ,suspension and gearing . Would be good to know if swapping wheels to "OffRoad" ones i.e. Baghira is just that ?????

Basically the Mastiff has less suspension movement,a shorter wheelbase,and less trail(Quicker steering) as well as the smaller wheels.

Thanks for that .thought there would be some differences other than wheel sizes

Apart from the obvious headlights and clocks the Mastiff uses a 20mm shorter swingarm,a shorter rear shock, a lower front mudguard, Shorter non adjustable forks, shorter side stand plus a few detail changes like length of brake hose speedo cable etc. There is also 1 degree difference to the headstock angle, narrower unbraced handle bars on Mastiffs and a different wiring loom
Although some of the Mastiff parts such as Shock and forks are also used if the Baghira is HR (height Reduced)
Wheel sizes all Mastiffs came with 17" wheels Baghiras ( both full height and HR ) could have either 17"s or 21 front 18 rear or both sets with interchangeable caliper bracket speedo drive an side stand.

Hope this helps

Thanks Allan , sounds like te frame is different as well from a previous comment above due to the different headstock angle .So all in all converting a Mastif to Baghira spec ( for some more serious offroad use ) is not really a good move , best to keep looking for a Baghira then .
