The ACU regs call for two. You put two in. The rules are not debatable and scrutineers won't enter into negotiations over them. Just do it! :)

The design of my JHP bellypan means that the lowest point is right in the middle where the hole is - so it would work perfectly - if I need another hole for ACU regs - I'll drill one !! Won't make it drain any better though.

You are all getting your knickers in a bit of a twist
 

You need to remember that whatever DD rules say - the ACU rules are the ones that apply above all else except when it comes to formula regs i.e tuning and modifications permitted.

Take the DD rules with a pinch of salt and read the ACU regs because it is them that will dictate whether or not your bike passes scrutineering. It's New Era's ACU accredited/trained scruts that decide whether or not you bike is legal. Not the DD.

Now pls excuse me. I have a race to do. ;)

cheers Tim :)
tho I wont take it off till I get typo confirmation, as it says it must be there in the dd rules.

acu regs say a maximum of two so shouldnt one be enough?

Just a thought but ...
 

... I'd want to get to scrutineering real early at Cadwell just in case any last minute mods are required :smug:

we will be anyway Henners - but no mods should be needed if rules are updated & distributed to all competing asap

C:)

looking and listening to all these 'last minute' issues, I am kinda glad I havent entered this year. No way would I have the time to chop and change at such a late stage.

Come on MT, get the rules out or at least tell people to use the ACU regs, or you are risking spoiling all this before it starts!

I know its not easy and thers lost of decision and stuff to make, but thats not a valid reason to stall for so long.

As a member, I am worried that this is taking all the time you have and it is still not done. Is anything else happening in the club?

I don't totally agree - there really isn't any "chopping and changing" of the rules going on, its just that as final preparations are going on for racing that we've still got 2 weeks for - we are trying to ensure our bikes are ready.

The rules apply differently to different bikes, ie - the rules for oil catchtank on a SS mean different things on a Monster - the rules cannot be expected to cater for all bike, but we are all seeking clarification for our own particular models. This is enevitable and expected I believe.

We could (and should) be sending these questions off to the desmodue email address for official responses, but these are shared on here in the hope that someone else knows the answers first.
