2015 RULES

[Gino230]

It would be good for those bikes to have a place to race, especially since the AMA is clearly leaning towards that as a spec class. However there are alot of 250 people that would like to see their class kept "pure"

That is running into the same issues as LW is having with the Ducatis and the SV.  At least they have some development with new bikes in their class.

What about upping ULTB CC limits to 321cc for inline twins for the Yamaha R3 or 374cc for singles for the KTM RC390

I just sent in a request for that.  It makes for a pretty good and fair 3 way battle between Kawasaki, Yamaha and KTM.

I can understand that it will make the 250 riders feel left out, but I think it's better in the long run.

Maybe run the 250's as thunderbike rules and anything bigger as SS rules. Theres going to be an awful lot of 250 riders left in the dust if they pile in the bigger bikes to this class.

That is basically what LRRS did.  Class 'A' machines get to run SB rules, with some restrictions, IE below the cylinder no mods.  Class 'B' have to run SuperStock, OEM exhaust and everything.  Bikes are specifically listed as approved and as what class.  If it's not in the approved list, it's not allowed.

That's my cheat sheet I've been building while contemplating entering the class.  Waiting to see which of the new machines get approved for 2015 now.

Yep! KTM is the officially the MotoAmerica youth class bike.

I definitely think there should be a class for these to be competitive in.

I would love for CCS to keep a list like this for every class.  It would keep people from coming along with an oddball that fits in a class but has an unfair advantage for some reason.

KTM announced today that they will be running an RC Cup series at selected rounds of Moto America. Looks like I may be buying an RC390 soon, but I still don't think they should be allowed in ULTB or GTLU. Leave this class low buck entry level.
I think the KTM can run with the ULWSB and LWSS and be competitive,
