Bike prep' for Saturday 8th April

**White trash** · 3rd April 2006, 18:25

Right-Oh, here's what to do and what to expect.

Things your bike will need are: All glass and plastic taped. Remove the mirrors if ya can.
Brake pads and lines in good nick with no "soggyness"
Tread on both front and rear tyres unless you are using only the burnout pad.
Wheel bearings, steering head bearings and swing arm bearings will all be checked, as will fork seals.
Oil leaks from motor and you'll not be allowed on track.

As for your riding gear, common sense prevails here. Don't turn up in your gym shoes, jeans and Motly Crew T-shirt, you'll be told to fuck off. Proper motorcycling gear such as:

Boots above ankles, full face helmet, gloves, motorcycle quality jacket and pants or leathers, back protector if you don't have armour built in to your gear.

EDIT: Bikes with "12 bars" fitted (that are using them) will be checked to see if they're likely to damage the track. If they are looking dodgy, guess what? No 12s. Sorry.
Any questions?

Just for curiosity sake why is that... and for the record what exactly are the exact specifications. Them cars racing later in the day won't have em so it won't be a noise thing.

Just wondering cause I really don't wanna munch the carbon muffler,.

So put the stock one on. Or better still, make a new one for the day. To start with, your bike will run like shit without a muffler. Secondly, it'll be spitting flames out the exhaust. I've seen rubber on a burnout pad ignite from exhaust flames. Thirdly, it'll make my fuckin' ears bleed. Fourthly, I don't need a reason.

Can't comment on the cars, technically, they're on a different booking. Different clubs have different rules and our contract sez "Keep the noise to an acceptable level"

Sold the stock one and it's a full system anyway so i'll try get something sorted.
1) bike won't run thaty shit without a muffler cause it's basically straight though anyway
2) not gonna be doing burnouts
3) *hands WT a can of harden up*
4) *hands WT a baby blanket*

So yeh I'll see what I can get sorted. But would still like to know exact specs cause otherwise i'll just get an extension pipe to make the header pipe a bit longer

Well do that mate, I'd rather see ya with a pipe the right length than none at all. You're a clever chap, take ya no more than half an hour to knock one up so get cracking.
