Does your bike comply?

[CHOPPA]

Yip,But,That was the coroners recommendation following the deaths of Derek Hill and Phillip Harrison at Puke in 08,No action was taken following that recomendation and since then we've had a similar situation at Manfeild which resulted in another death,Not a good look,Its an easy fix,Just deal with it.

I welcome the rule, no reason to run your bike that low on fuel

Yip,

They will be onboard for all of any series they have agreed to,This also means,Series like the Suzuki series or Vic club Bridgestone series can adopt the same process and means the non riding rep can concentrate on the job in hand and the competing rep can assist when he's available,The rulebook already allows for both,Just that at present they both have to be elected on the day and cannot be a member of the host club,Makes it near impossible to get the right person in the job.

I like it. Often on the day there's only 1 or 2 people that have the experience and capabilities to do the job so there's little choice. But whoever gets it doesn't have the benefit of being prepared. So having the appointed rep and an elected-on-the-day rep as well is definitely a good thing.

This is also inline with most international series I think (not 100% sure of that though).

Google: chain toe guard

They're often refered to as a sharks tooth chain guard but trying to google for that will get you nowhere.

Fairly sure this is what they are talking about (as seen on my Daytona). The swingarm on the Daytona ('06 675) has a mounting boss so that a chain guard can be attached. I would assume that most of the newer superbike and supersport bikes would have a similar arrangement. Not sure when they started putting those bosses on the swingarm though, so if you have an older bike it may not be such a simple 'purchase and install' item.

Yea sorry mate,I promise not to do it again.......Must remember not to drink copious amounts of alcohol while formulating rulechanges

Be a fookin nightmare on some of the posties bikes TBH. But them's the rules.

22.6.2
Once the meeting has been declared wet, a rear facing flashing red LED light must be fitted and operational
Reason: New rule

Needs to be size, lumens and frequency restrictions. Ever followed a fucktard who doesn't know what rear fog lights are for? Now imagine it flashing. Also needs to say visible from various angles or summit. I know it sounds pedantic but some smart arse will put the LED under their seat etc.

I've found one for my bike though.

Good to see some positive feedback,Email me with your suggestions re frequency etc

There'll always be somebody who thinks they can get away with a pisstake,Not sure what it is they think theyre achieving,Like the clown who signed his infringement notice with "Mickey Mouse",Nice surprise coming his way in the not to distant future

Good points, I would maybe take it off a push bike style flashing light. That way they are cheap (around $20-$40) and can be mounted practically anywhere (and removed quickly if necessary) as well as running of their own batteries which saves hassle.

I welcome the rule, no reason to run your bike that low on fuel

and if your fuel line is blocked/bursts? or the fuse on the fuel pump/injectors goes? Dead battery? Loss of ignition? - all of these can cause a bike to run out of fuel.... not just fuel...

The issue is a bike stopping on track? The fine needs to be all or nothing does it not? I remember alot of conversation about this several years ago, but it never got put in place. surely there were reasons...

Yeah there are other ways a bike will stop for sure, we had a car battery charger problem, i.e the batt charger was poked so when we went out for the 3rd session my bike ( running total loss) stopped dead.....The charger said it was charging but mr shorai just run out of go..... I don't think mechanicals should be punished that racing but if you put 3 litres of fuel in when you need 4 to finish a race........

I think thou that if you bike stops out on the track and when you are rescued if your tank is dry then slap that man or woman on the face.
