Re: A couple of little bikes

" S " rated will be fine for your classes..
But if you are looking for odd rated tires , check the "AVON " catelouges.

Bikes look good 8)

Re: Impound for Motorcycles

Most competitors will not have made provisions for sealing their tanks. (next year maybe )
Impound will let it slide for this year..
But be warned ... this year there will be track spotters , part of their job will be watching out for
unscrupulous behaviour on the return roads..

Re: fairings

Zues clips shaking in the wind have a tendancy to pop.
