Got ECTA Rule book ! Fuel Valve cut off & Fire Proof??

I have (At least I think I have) Everything else covered!

Has everyone put some type of "Fuel" Valve on their Bikes?? If you did, what fuel valve did you use!

Has everyone wrapped fiberglass or something around their fuel lines??

Last, On the Number Plates, what Number do you use! My Current AMA Number is "469" can I use that??

OldKawaboy, Mr. Race 4 it?? :roll: :roll:

The reference to a fuel cutoff is satisfied by the tipover switch and stop/run switch killing power to the pump.

The fuel lines come with a stock metal winding around them, but you can pick up heat shrouds fairly inexpensively at any auto parts store.

Your number is assigned by the event organizer, at least with SCTA-BNI it is.

OK!! I take the people that have been there and done that word! I an still wrapping my fuel lines! I am having front tire Problems! I bought a new tire mounted it with the Yellow dot by the valve stem and it took 2 oz (4 marks on the lead are either 1 oz or 2 oz)! I had a vibration at 90 to 110, so I turned the tire 180 degrees and having it rebalanced today! If this does not work out, then I am taking the old tire out of the trash and remounting it! No vibration, but starting to snake from the wear! If necessary, I will take my Grinder to it (Remove the edges) and rebalance it)! I hate last minute problems!

I just realized something about my fairing theory for maxton! I was just
looking at my website and noticed that I went 202.593 with the CUT FAIRINGS
in place. duh! Up until this point for some reason I was thinking that I
did that with stock pieces on the bike and was theorizing that having cut
them would hold me back, because most bikes extend the underbelly for aero
to produce coverage for the rear tire, especially long wheelbase bikes.

Well shit! that's cool! I looked at the pics and hell if it wasn't already
cut! Obviously stock pieces would do better, but at least we know 200 can
be broken with the hacked lowers..
