    If you had 7/11 then you could claim that people raced 7/11 bikes in or before 89 which is likely that would make your bike a hybrid pre89 replica etc but I think you would struggle to find a rz350/rgv250 bike that raced in or before 1989.This is where it is up to the rider to prove that it complies.If you have doubt contact someone who can confirm it for you and let them know what you intend to do.
    Im no authority and what i see in a competition rule book is not what the next person will see but your build seems outside the rules as I read them.
    I will find my MNZ rule book and read the NZPCRA rules as well

    Plan B , still do the yammagamma but as my new road bike (get rid of my Ducati) and finish my 87 TZR250 1KT as my pre 89 bike

    another question please, TZ250 ,1986 with RZ350 engine, Same deal as with the RGV ? or ok because the poms were probably racing hybreds TZ/RZ pre89

    Its all about proving what your doing is matching what was done pre89 then your bike is a replica of a pre89 raced bike but the replica must include same swinger ,forks and shocks as the bike you are replicating.Thats my interp of the way the rules read for postclassic.But again Im no authority in the matter.
    What I say means bugger all at the end of the day.
    My biggest worry is that I will have to prove that the colours in my paintjob were avaliable in or before 1989.

    Assumption is the mother of all fuck ups!

    Cool, a mate(will hopefully be at manfeild on saturday) was/is planing the TZ/RZ(RD YPVS as he calls it since the poms didnt have RZs) I will get him to do the reasearch 1st, i think it should be OK as the poms did all sorts a Hybreds since they had so many classes. I will have to go thru some books i have , i think i remember a Stan Stephens race bike(with 68mm bore instead of 64) like that 1987ish. Hot 2stroke race bikes , gota love them aye

    Do the resurch gather the proof but cover your arse by getting the ok before building.Look forward to seeing the little weapon.

    What fans? You been smoking crack or something? Fuck the fans....we're the ones spending the time/money and enjoying the racing. They can go to classic bike shows or watch car racing if the looks are so important to them.

    It was brought to my attention that my bike changed colour in the light in jest by another posty senior after winning my first race.It just seemed ironic the timing of the ribbing I received about something a little different to what I had in the prior round.Even a word said in jest can show a change in mindset when anything more than a personal achievement is met.

    I have a theory




    I pre date the class by a long way so if my bike is slightly out of regulatory status i outweigh the differance with my age so im sweet , anything goes.
    As long as we all keep our outdated haircuts and wear flared jeans nobody can deny we are purists.
