Hence allowing the Hawk being bored to 800 if you dare.

[apriliaman]

any other bikes?

[proechel539]

Does that mean 99 and earlier, anotherwords you could have an 800cc,1999 SV? Am I reading that rite or am I confused?

[Cowboy 6]

Sorry Darrell, its "pre 99"

Well the Ducati 748 is overkill for the Ultralight class. I also think that of the Ducati 800 and SV although maybe not total overkill. I believe that the Ducati 800 and the SV would have been better suited to the Lightweight classes and even the Ducati 900 in Lightweight.

I think CCS did do the decent thing and not iclude the 748 in the lightweight classes although I think the lightweight classes have already been "stunk-up" by the 1000+ motors. I know it's a dead horse and nothing will change that now but I feel better saying it.

I will continue to run my Ducati 800 in Ultralight and maybe learn how to ride Daytona one of these days.

Dude, you kill me. Its a SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY CC liquid cooled desmo actuated race specific middleweight!! Do you really think it belongs in ULTRA lightweight?
