2013 Spindle changes?

[grizztracks]

I was looking at a 2013 Nytro RTX and the spindles looked different than the previous years. The part numbers also have changed,

2009-2012 Part# 8HK-23501-00-00

2013 Part# 8HK-23501-10-00

Anyone know what changes have been made? I'd like to see a comparison. I thought they looked shorter and more like some of the aftermarket spindles I've seen.

My guess is just the color, all the Nytros had a black front end last year.

I thought the last two digits of the part number was color designation.

the colour is the only change...100%

Did they do black in any of the previous years? I've seen previous year Nytro's with black spindles but they may have been powder coated or painted.

no they never done black before.. the ones you seen must have been powder coated..
