As far as I am concerned I have no truck with cheating. As far as I am aware I have neither broken nor infringed any rules, neither have I gone against the spirit of DesmoDue. To harp on about keeping costs down is just nonsensical when you permit the use of plenty of non standard parts. EVERYTHING in my engine is standard, and within factory tolerance, as it was last year and will be next year. What I have had done is good assembly practice, no more no less. |

I know what you mean Alan, SoT rules were always quite easy to comply with but then again it was far more costl than DD. What rules a series does have need to be clear, for that to happen we need to close out gray areas As for blue printing there is the large factory way or the small team way. Large factory, take 1000 of each component and find a pair that best meets the design spec and use them, no modification required Small team way, take the pair of items that you have in your engine and modify one so that it matches the other. Now if you go some where in between and start with several items and get them matched up as best as possible without modification then thats fine by DD rules but if modifications are carried out then rules are being broken. What would be next porting/flowing heads so that both heads flow exactly the same, anybody got the factory figure for the CFM of a 620 cylinder head, I know the rules say no material can be added or removed but surely its just good practice and therefore I should be allowed to do it :p |

A month? Is there a class for these? ;) |

That's what I understand. It's like putting balancing weights to the wheels then :) |
Very good analogy Alex, you are adding material there but it gives no performance advantage, just makes the wheel run correctly. |

Quite right re the last sentence For example the same front wheel (501.2.069.1AB) is fitted to both MY03 620 and 750 Monsters. So if I took a front wheel off a 750Monster from another year and used it, would it be illegal? Mind you, my bike has a 900ss frame, Mhe900e forks, a 750ss rear wheel and an ST2 front wheel so I might as well be banned now and save on all the race entries...:lol: |
Stick bit's of lead on the crank:eek: |
