but you know most of us just ride em Kev that's as far as our knowledge goes!!

And there are all sorts of rules which seem to not always be applied - subframe...balancing crankshafts...batteries

And thats before BHP, weight and the bigger issues we occasionally see

oh and I'm lazy too - and boooored beyond belief but still cant bring myself to read the rules - sorry

edited to add I'm also the most angry, annoyed and aggressive I've been in years - how people spend their lives lounging about sponging off the state doing feck all amazes me!! It just makes me want to kill the next person who comes thru the door!!!!!

Since I've been able to make changes to the rule Book most of what you mention above has been rewritten
Subframe - Addressed a couple of years ago and Class A updated for this year
Crank Balancing - Also been updated to allow it, but not lightening or knifedging
Batteries - Again upadated a year or two ago so they are now free, just need to be able to start the bike in Parc Ferme if asked to do so

BHP and Weight are measureable without having to take a spanner to a bike so makes sense to have figure that all can work to

Then on top of it all the ACU has a protest procedure for anybody to use should they feel someone else is gaining an advantage by operating outside of the rules.
I have seen the odd breach of the rule recently, but wouldn't say any of them gave a performance advantage, but if another competitor lodged them as an ACU protest they would be an easy ones to have th rider removed from the results.
