    I think they are speced the same. n90-II ltd is golden and n90-II is red (quite similar to the n55 color scheme).

    A small note is that N90-II does not mean that they will drop the N90. N90 and N90 will both be available.

    The paint quality of N90 is not very impressive (easy to get paint-chips!) my guess is that n90-II has more durable paint.

    N90-II should have same BP as the N90 but some inovative stuff seems to be added, for example a cone-shaped shaft (same idea as the 3-piece teapered shaft but a conic shaped one-piece construction to move the flexpoint higher).

    It is impressive to see how focused Li Nings seem to be in development/research and sponsoring.. I think we players will benefit from a stiffer competition between Yonex, Victor and Li Ning Jockeying for the no.1 badminton makers spot in the future..

    I have not held the racket in real life.. I have only seen pictures/specs of it and seen the pictures posted of the ltd. here and on badminton.cn.

    cheers,

    Will the N90-II be cheaper unlike the N90-II ltd which includes other items that make it more expensive?

    Of course LD can probably beat anyone here with a $10 racket, but we are talking about rackets, not comparing skills. Do you think a random person driving an enzo is gonna post a better laptime than an F1 driver in a 911 turbo?

    Your opinion that LN is overpriced is just an opinion, that you are free to have, similar to your opinion that Yonex is "worth it". As for what rackets feel best to each individual player, it's their opinions too. If N90 works like a charm for some specific person, than even paying $1000 for it is not overpriced, just like the same could be said of any Yonex racket too.

    is there not going to be a N55 II ??:confused:
    I was in the market for either a victor BS09 or a Li Ning N55 and was hoping for a N55 @ maybe a cheaper price than the $188 I saw it for

    don't worry about it, we are having fun w the exchanges re: (over)pricing. seriously, you think a nationally-rank top junior w n90 can't beat ld w/ a ten looney stick? i don't know, that's why i am intrique.

    Its the same shop, they're just slower to update the english site. You order by emailing them what you want anyways, so it doesn't really matter

    I think you miss understood me

    What I meant was I was waiting for a N55 II to come out so that the N55 would be reduced I was hoping that it would be reduced from $188 to maybe $150ish
