That Vid of your tyre disintegrating was quite something
And possibly also a lesson in when not to panic

The Front?  It was a Michelin hard slick, shaved.  No special=looking cuts or gouges near the chunk.  It looks just like a heat blister that then was torn off.

this thread has been dormant for a cuppla weeks, and i would like to ask on behalf of the International racers, "Can we have "direction" on the differences between "A and M" bikes please", as the tech officials will judge them at the 2014 BUB's,,
"All" overseas competitors are geting their bikes ready from now until June/July at the very latest,, we bring our machines half way around the world (wont mention at what costs) set up to run our nominated class, we have just enough infurstructure to get by on, that is "our" commintment",, out of respect for the racers, ""We Need To Know Now"",,

I asked BUB on Jan 3rd if they anticipated any rules changes for 2014. This is the response.

BUB Motorcycle Speed Trials.

 "We'll be having our final rule meeting when I'm back in Ohio for the AMA Champions banquet. We are clarifying the M and A definitions but no other major changes planned. anticipate the rules to be out around the end of Jan."

So stay tuned if you run A or M classes.




Stay`tee, sounds like AMA won't announce anything until the end of January, which probably means mid Feb if you're lucky. -Dean

"...I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender!"  :-D

I couldn't resist, considering the title of this thread.
