Yes there is a sticker. But apparently it's so badly controlled that even the fakes can bypass the system and shown as genuine. If you compare with my pictures in the first page you'll find out whether yours is genuine or not too. Balance point at F9 seems better than mine. Probably 305-10/15mm. Good. 

I don't want to be making statements here but 290 is on the good side whereas 295 is a little on the high side. Yes you're right. Adding more weight onto the grip end is going to reduce the balance point. I don't have a way to 100% confirm that it is a real or fake, but if you were to compare your racquet with my pictures on the first page and find out that your racquet is similar to mine, then I'm 90% sure that its a fake. So far after comparing with about 10 racquets, I seem to be the only one who have this paint job problem. And also, no other F9 buyers from Kenny has reported in this thread. If your balance point is on the F9 then it should be alright. Try to make a comparison with my pictures and tell us what you find here.
