got a couple tech questions...
1.) kill switch....does the stock tip sensor count?
2.) metal chain guard. Schnitz has one listed as 'Land Speed'. Is there a certain criteria the metal chainguard needs to meet? I'm stock on the wheelbase. I'll call schnitz in the morning.
3.) Do I have to rent a room, or are there places to set up a tent?
thanks in advance for the info, I'm running a little behind in the prep department. Wasn't planning on attending, much less running----(thanks a hella lot ther Boricua!)

6'1 270. I'm looking at buying a set, but it never hurts to ask first. What brand leathers do you have? Any particular brand you recommend?
I have a set of Bates and a set of Vanson. Both are nice but I like the Bates a little better.
You won't be able to get a set form either of those places before the mile. You are like me. We aren't "off the rack" size guys.

1.) NO tip over switch does not count. Must be a tether kill switch.
2.) Any metal chain guard will pass tech. No plastic.
3.) You will need to get a room. They don't allow camping at the track unless you have an RV. No tents.
Hope this helps.

----No .... its my way of taking a jab at Warp12...thats all....him and I go back and forth on the weight issue....
I think he's 6'1 about 240 geared up...not sure if his AGV was too big for him or if he got another one he liked.
His PM on here is shane661

4 runs!?!? No way! I heard more but haven't run there yet!
Just sent in my prepayment today....had to find out my blood type....
Red A1 model with Red A+ blood...how fitting.
I told the girl on the phone the only reason I'm coming out that far is to smash 200 mph, get in the club and ... come to think of it....I may have a shot at fastest "E" class bike out there!
1250cc is the limit so Boricua....Heff.....Karl....have fun in the Busa Class (F class 1250+cc)....hahahaahha!!!

not for sure if you remember Sarge12R, but he told me there were only four runs for the entire weekend. I like the unlimited runs much better.
Other than ship, who is the next smallest pilot thats going to be attending?
Can riders pilot more than one bike....obviously not simultaneously
