Anyone know if Velocity stacks and Graves slide stops are supersport and/or sportbike legal?

Doubt it. Stock airbox with stock appearing aftermarket air filter allowed. Carbs can only have a jet kit AFAIK.

Call Elliott.

The Graves' slide things...that's like a carb kit replacing the slide springs, right?

it just stops the slide from coming out at all, at all throttle positions, I did have tech check my slides (on a carb R6) at SS post race tech, so maybe thats what they were looking for.

I guess I will call kevin and ask. The slides and the velocity stacks. I heard lee talk about the slides being wonderful, but he wouldn't have used it if its illegal??

is it me or 115hp seem to be kind of easy to get past... I hate to be a slow guy getting dq'ed by the dyno :D

Don't know on the dyno number.  Never did have my bike on a dyno.  Certainly, I'd like to be close to that number.  It is attainable, and that's the idea...that number is attainable without major modifications or special parts that are not available to the public.  That's why the factories don't race FUSA.  Makes it a race that doesn't necessarily have an outcome that will be determined by a select number of riders on certain bikes.
