is can i just rock up with my 636 and race it in the clubman series?

Yeah you can, have to do the scrutineering thing though, ie wire up the sump plug, filter etc etc, take the mirrors off and all that stuff.
being a 636 you can race in clubmans or F1.
Get into it have fun

Thanks for that
but with mx you don't have to do the scrutineering thing at least not at club level. so can you just use number 8 wire or is it those special sealed ones? and where do you get them from?

also where can i get some race fairings from?

The idea behind wiring up your sump plug/oil filter is to stop it unwinding totaly in a worst case scenario, thus dumping oil all over the track. In MX racing scrutineering isnt as big an issue because on a dirt track you cant mess the track up by droping oil on it or gouging a groove when you crash without bar end-caps for example. As a general idea for wire your looking for 0.8mm to 1.8mm non-coated wire, something that wont break when you twist it up tight (fuse wire will problery break) As for race fairings i recomend "just fairings" in hamilton. http://www.justfairings.co.nz/ he makes good strong fibreglass race fairings to suit most bikes new and old.

hey, just wondering wether I have to lockwire my drivechain masterlink? will be racing in clubman's (B) at manfield on 23rd. Have heard whispers about this requirement though am not sure how to do it properly.

No you do not have too lockwire the chain clip. And I've not yet seen it done ether. I presume to do it correctly, you use the lock wire instead of the clip.
Anyone seen it done?
You would think that if the clip was lockwired on, the wire would rub against the sprockets on every revolution, and eventually break?

that's what I figured. Thanks all.

What you do is use the C Clip, then lock wire the C-Clip to the joiner link through the middle of the link, then put a good dob of Silicone on the wire to stop the wire from breaking

Just filled out my AMCC Membership form & Faxed it off, now onto the MNZ Competition License form.

On page 3, Racing Number Request > Road Race, I need to chose a bike class, theres Formular 3, Sports Production and Production Superbike. I assume that my Daytona 675 comes under Sports Production?

Cheers

Post Classic is any Bike manufactured up to the end of Decemeber 1982 (with a few exceptions)

In the North Island they do run a Pre 89 class (Club level only) which some people mistakenly call Post Classic
