NEED HELP! F2'S IN LIGHTWEIGHT CLASSES!

[F2RGK]

Well, well, well!  I must say that everyone has had a fair share of their opinions on this subject and I definately have caught people's attention.  I think I'm up to around 5200 views now...not bad!  Anyway, K3, you are definately making a valid claim and keeping on track, thanks and no pun intended.  Super Dave...you're awesome too; I'm learning alot here from you.  As Sauce had mentioned, I'd really like to see an F2 do a 12 at blackhawk.  I'll give you my bike to do it with as well or Ed Key--Name the day and time!  I do have to mention one thing here about a rule that people have forgotten about; I believe Thinderbike has a certain year age of bike rule.  In other words, only an F2 up to 1993 I believe can run in Thunderbike.  So, with that said Dave, your SV couldn't apply to racing in Thunderbike.  What doesn't make any sense is an F2 is allowed to run in Formula 40 which currently are all Sv's and Buell's.  Help me out here?  Is it me or is it a catch 22?  Yes, you can build an F2 just like any other bike, but how many guys are going to spend that kind of money?  I would think they will buy a newer one before they spend the money on an F2.  Again, it's just my opinion.  LWSB anyone?

i just wanta run more races.i dont have the $$$$ to buy a new bike and would like 1 more class to run  in,lwsb is more of a level feild than mwss.thats all,i guess i'll just have to go to wera.thanks oh dave my offer still stands.

I haven't read the whole thread but I'm not letting you run an F2 in LW classes either....

And giving me someone's F2 to ride isn't going to help me do a 12 on it.

First, it's not my bike.  Second, it's not my set up.  Maybe I have to point it out, but Ed has kept his first generation SV650.  He's worked on it a lot.  It might be minor changes here and there, but there's a lot of focus put into one's set up. 

Similarly, unless someone is going to spend the money on tires and time for me to set up their F2 for me to do that kind of a time, it's not going to happen. 

And even more similarly, I didn't turn the time on my SV1000 that Trey Batey turned on his SV1000 at Road Atlanta.  The time he turned is available in my bike.  Making it happen is a matter of setting it up, which takes time, money, and the rider to do it.

Have fun in Thunderbike guys!

Dave, just so you know...we aren't calling you out to do this, if it's possible to do, we just want to see it!  It wouldn't take much work for our bikes too accomplish that for you or Ed Key.  You can't hurt it...it's only nuts and bolts!  Mongo, you're too late to comment!

Try entering the bike in a LW race.  There is an older racer in WSMC that races a 600 in a class that it is not legal for, somone would need to file a protest to get the bike the DQ'd. I am just wondering if this would work in CCS or would tech tell you not the race the bike in that class ?

Tech will send you back to registration.
