Any Info on Ninja 250 Class?

What is the eta on the rules?

 

Nikola just got back Aprilia and Moto Guzi training in California, and promised me it should be out in 2 or 3 days time. I'll post it up as soon as it's done.

 

eta on the rules?

 

Ninja 250 Rear Sets

Just as a quick heads up to anyone planning on racing the Ninja 250 this year,

I have Black Anodized Rear Sets for all model years from about 1993 to current model years in stock and ready to go for you guys. I have had them as a stocked Race and Street Rear Set since I had them done up a few years ago for young Ninja 250 Racers in Edmonton,

Email me Directly for them at b.layton@svracingparts.com and I will get you looked after right away,

Enjoy the ride, and best regards,
Blair

 

Soooo no turbos?

 

Hey Ryan don't you mean "Turbos only till you get caught"?

 

Thanks for getting these rules out!

 

The rules state that only the following modifications can be made:
...
8.12 The front fork externals must remain stock. Upper and lower triple clamps must remain stock.
...
This isn't a modification, so I assume that the internals can be changed. Does this rule exclude internal changes (springs etc.)?

 

Hi, Springs are internal, good to go,

Enjoy the ride, and best regards,
Blair

 

Yep, what Blair said. You can change spring rates for sure, but it must remain the same tubes.

 

Same goes for the shock right?
As long as the frame shock mounts aren't modified an aftermarket replacement can be used.

 

Exactly,

Enjoy the ride, and best regards,
Blair

 

For the rear shock what it actually states in the rules is that you can change the spring, but not the mounts.
No where does it say you can replace the shock body. I'd be careful before I went out and bought a replacement shock.

 

OK, thanks for clearing that up.

 

Hey Nicola I am fine with only the spring on the rear shock. I just want to make sure everyone has a clear understanding of things before they start buying parts that they can't use in the class.
My understanding of the rules is that you can change the internals of the suspension but you can't do ANYTHING to change the external appearance of the suspension.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

 

whoa whoa, so is this legal?

 

hey...how'd you get a pick of my ninja?!?

 

Thanks for clearing that up Nikola.

 

Sorry to stir the pot but...

Since it is a production class

Why allow non-dot slicks, but not allow a shock replacement?

Perhaps we could reverse those? Allow shock mods and ban slicks.

 

we usually allow slicks since they *generally* last longer than the DOTs. The Michelin slicks offer so much grip though they are likely to rip the swingarm right off the bike.
