Can you define full nylon protection for a motard bike please? I have axle skid knobs front and rear+ plastic wrap around hand guards....anything else needed?

That should be good ;-) Hows the foot pegs? any nasty sharp bits that could damage the track? have you got a catch can for fuel over flow/ water ? its a awesome track , c u there:niceone:

[That Guy]

Will they damage the trak if you crash? thats all we have to be concerened about. its a awesome track and we have to look after it .

[That Guy]

Yeah I know, I don't want to hurt the track (kind of funny thought that actually...hurt the track? What about ME!!:doh:).....that's what I'm asking I guess....being a dirtbike they fold so not as bad a road race bike which has fixed pegs.....but if I came off hard? Maybe they might damage the track? What do the other motard bikes who race there do?

[Shorty_925]

I just have some nylon blocks under the footpegs, and zip-tie them good and proper and do the trick, though want to be careful where you put the zip-tie's, I wore them out last time!
