Is this "hack the fairing" decision by the same folks behind the "all cow all the time" rule (while road racers go 200 mph all year round with fabric inserts) and the OEM engine requirement in MPS that mysteriously protects a few softish records of large and un-aerodynamic riders?  Does the rules committee enjoy all the feedback?

Current MC tech policy seems to be "If I close my eyes, you can't see me."
"I would rather lose going fast enough to win than win going slow enough to lose."

What's the process for changing the people that are on the MC Rules committee? Is there a vote or something? Or are they appointed?

OK everyone, only a couple of days until we find out if there is a different interpretation at EM, whether it be old one, new one or another one. 
Hopefully the SCTA will sooner or later post something on the OFFICIAL website.  I will be interested in seeing if the bikes from past EM pictures are butchered in the new pictures or allowed to run in the newly illegal configuration...

Get off the stove Grandad.  You're too old to be riding the range.
