Indeed the very best of luck to Chop. We are helping him with suspension bits. To that end it needs to be clarified ( to allay all misapprehensions ) that Superstock class is not completely stock. Whilst the motor internals are basically stock you are allowed to run a few external bolt ons. Also aftermarket rear shock and front fork cartridges.
The Aussie rulemakers have been quite sensible.

If we are eluding to control tyres thats a can of worms. Control tyres will have less grip, but the desirable property is that they give advance warning before they let go.

That of course goes hand in hand and is a constant battle against max grip and tyre degradation.

My daughters are 18 and 16 and all I reasonably ask is that I get to choose all prospective suitors to a rigid ''specification'' Cant be too much to ask for???!!!

18 and 16???? You poor bastard!!!

Hope you've tuned and set them up correctly to the best of your knowledge Rob!!!

Wouldn't want some young stud losing his grip due to incorrect rubber application! Or even wearing his rubber out too fast for that matter!!!
Actually, this might be when its a good time to supply new rubber for every outing!!!???
Tell your girls not to put up with their studs telling them they cant afford new rubber and will only ride to the conditions......!!:wari:

:shit:My daughters are 10 and 12. Any set-up advice would be greatly appreciated. Any suggestions about which aftermarkets parts are going to provide best value?

Don't worry Dr Bob, I'm sure that "rigid" is in their list of qualities for a prospective suitor
