 :o I've just read in the flyer sent that there are new rules governing the Lt.Wt. superbikes. The rule stated that aircooled twins are up to 1210 cc . Does this mean all air-cooled twins??

Sunny

Air cooled twins up to 1210 cc is pretty self-explantory to me............   ;)  This means as long it's a twin and air cooled, and under 1211cc, you'll be okay!  


However, I am getting a little confused here myself...............  How is a ~1200 cc motorcycle Lt. Wt. at all???????????????   ???

LW/MW/HW are based on HP/weight ratios, not size of engine

Because last year the rule stated only pushrod twins were allowed that many cc.

Sunny,
  Are you just assuming thats true. Because you know what happens when you  ass u me. ;)

Hey Sunny, I'll sell you my 2000 Buell M2.  You'll be pretty damn competitive after a some weight reduction action.

Yup. Rules last year, I believe, allowed 1203cc air-cooled push-rods twins.
