Na no issue - not in my book. But, Just putting a suggestion forward.

This right here, is the issue. Be it real bike racing or buckets, people wanna fuck with stuff that needn't be fucked with. Why is it unacceptable to tell folk. "Not all bikes are equal and yours is shit, but it ain't our probem"?

Induction will be by carburettors only.

Not as innovative as us then!!! glad I am not running in a ham strung limited vision Aussie class.

No and No as there are plenty of starters

Buckets is pretty much run with common sense and goodwill and as there are still some of the classic 125cc Buckets around, it was suggested to do a pole to see if some space could be opened up for them to run in, it could have been a good idea.

I'm being deliberately obtuse and probably don't need to be. But I honestly think accross all of bike racing in New Zealand we are trying to pander to those we needn't.

A lot of bike racers here could do with just stepping up and racing what's in the shed. We're a tiny pacific island where the majority are just out for shits and giggles. Get amongst it (those who are upset their shit is...shit), or shut your hole.

It does seem overly restrictive for what here, is a class dreamed up by punters who really just wanted to fuck with shit.

Yes, not everyone wants to, but that is what I enjoy about Buckets, f..king with shit......

Actually Drew, there is an opportunity for groups that are willing: to cater for older bikes or new to the sport riders. That is how clubs grow and people get involved and stay involved.
Maybe clubs shouldn't bother with post classics or classics...

It don't disagree about not catering for every Tom dick and Harry. But occasionally, those the care should have a chance to discuss opportunities? Isn't that what this thread is about.

yes but they include all sorts of other stuff it seems other than engine size or restricted items such as injection or carb size valve size or number and fuel it seems anything goes (other than forced induction)

Classics only run at classics or street meetings. Posties is a fluid thing, and very well subscribed.

The title of this thread suggests rule submissions. Redefining requires a different conversation

yip your right, as normal.

CB125 Well we probably have an answer of sorts about whether a CB125 can still be competitive in F4 or if the old 125 4T's should be retired to F5.

Garry Cunningham last weekend peddled his F5 CB100 around Mt Wellington in under 31 sec which would make him definitely competitive in F4 and I expect that an intelligently worked and set up, bored out CB125 could still be a very competitive fun ride in F4. And one year Av out rode a lot of the F4 field with her F5 100 4T at Taupo.

F5 is not a dumping ground for old bikes that are no longer competitive in their own class.

It looks like a pod and a half per second.


Stephen AKA Briandemarge has done clever like calculations for aircooled bikes before.
I will quote him in order to ask him to post them.

That looks like a lot of air, it will be interesting hear what Brian has to say.

9mm between fins and a short path from heat source to coolant

When I get home I'll find the doc and post it

Hope it's of some help

If I stop off at pub .......but I try to remember

I was sent this From Brian d marge
I have only had a quick peek but it looks very interesting

Air cooled tech ignore the extra valves and oiling.

I'd love to have a couple of laps on one of the gpr150s At some stage .will see on Sunday how close I can get to Nathaniel in f5

Well I got close to Nathaniel in the second race on the weekend , but his pace down the straight is just abit to much for me. Will do some tinkering before the gp an give it another go, was only .2 off his fastest lap in the second race an 1.5 seconds at end of race So better than I thought I'd do.
