    Read on Yonex's badminton news on their new website there is gonna be another Nanoflare 800 but with only a 5U weight with a G5/G6 grip with the VDM (Vibration Dampening Mesh) and new colorway for the 700. Interesting that Yonex is putting out new colorways/editions for the Astrox and Nanoflare line as I am guessing it has been selling well for years.

    The information of the two rackets is down below.

    Kenta Nishimoto? I don't think he's going to use it as he changed to the Nanoflare 800. Will he stick to the Nanoflare 800 as long he used the Nanoray Z Speed? Who knows?

    He already used Nanoflare 800 3u, but here is nanoflare 800 LT, I'm not sure that he will change his racket in the next tournament.

    I don't have money to buy another Nanoflare 700 limited edition, so that I did a paint job ^-^

    My internet connection was interrupted a few days ago, sorry for my late reply.

    nope, still there are plenty of manufacturers who are producing new 90 or 91g rackets, even yonex all other lines have 3u (except 700nf) look at lining CP rackets specs, the lowest is 88g

    just recieved nf700 ltd, unfortunately did not specify weight in order, so unexpectedly it is 5ug5 in my hands. weights 81g wighout strings and with original grip.
    Now i thing I will string and try it, never played 5u actually.

    btw, the gold color is ok, but nothing to write home about. it looks as matted gold paint, machine prinded, not as thin sheets of gold, or anything "special". just another color.

    Got 3 of the 4UG5 (1 US, 2 JP).

    Did note that the JP codes have changed their code scheme and also the SG logo is beside the cone code as well.

    Is the first racket on the top an US coded one?

    Edit: NVM just read it...

    It's all good. It was a challenging getting my phone to show all 3 rackets to show the text as clear and focused as possible. Also corrected my original post, it is 4UG5.

    Did you order the JP rackets in the US? I used to buy off of Rakuten but they closed up their Japan site.

    Yeah unfortunately they closed it. If you want to get JP coded Yonex rackets, I'd recommend e78 shop.

    Oh no wonder. I did order from them. Only problem is shipping is super expensive but those BP Yonex rackets do look tempting.
