So whats the deal with...........

[benprobst]

 pit bikes at RA. Id like to bring a pitbike or 3 since we are going to be there all week and the place is so damn big. Ill be bringing our ratty old elite scooter, but thought I might bring along my KTM and maybe a streetbike or another scooter. Are they charging for un-plated bikes? how much? anyone know the deal?

we were up there for the AMA/Moto-ST weekend....$25/bike (only those not registered for street use).  and they do patrol and check you out

[r1owner]

There is a form you can get off their website to fill out for the unlicensed bikes.

Thanks guys, ill get on that. (by get on that, I mean ill pay when they come looking  ) Too bad that KTM is so damn loud or else I could probably get away with it all week.

Well they could just say no to any unlicensed motorized vehicle to be rode around. But I would put more blame on the insurance companies and retards who fuck around on them to blame before the tracks.

Well, actually, the insurance companies started to have to crack down on costs to the track, which ultimately is paid by the racers & track day participants, because of a number of transportable incidents involving pit vehicles.  Golf cars included. 

The burden of that is carried by those that bring uninsured/unlicensed pit vehicles.  Honestly, it sucks, but it's fair.

And don't bitch like this is something exclusive to Road America...  Many tracks are doing this already and many more will follow...

...and just to throw out a good word about the RA staff and security......they were very nice about letting us know we had to register the bikes
and pay $25 each. heck they even let us ride the bike out to get it done

Am I reading this registration form correctly?  I have to provide proof of one million dollars insurance coverage applicable to the use of my moped? 

[Burt Munro]

That's just the registration form for you Becca.   Nobody else has to prove liability insurance.

You don't need glasses, it says one million dollars. Apparently, they are worried you're going to crash into the fueling rigs causing a major explosion or something.
