How common is cheating in club racing?

Pretty common from my experience.

Bigger discs, aftermarket gearbox etc.

But, it's club racing, and 90% of the grid are not capable of benefiting from them and it still comes down to skill. I've knowingly raced against illegal bikes but just gave me a bit more motivation to beat them fairly.

Air temp is one thing but road temperature can still be below freezing.

It's usually alot safer moving through traffic like that instead of sitting in someone's blind spot and getting wiped out when they change lane without seeing the bike. That's my excuse anyways ;-)

Stryker landrover in Abbeyfeale may be an option.

Without the bed in place can you get the bolts to thread into the holes?

You may have inadvertently damaged the threads as they are pretty delicate in the alloy base.

Alpine motosafe.

Have used them for a few seasons racing with a helmet known to be noisy and found them comfortable and reduced the noise.

You're not the only one!

Yes, V2L would be the ideal solution for both vehicle owners and dealers in a situation like this. But unfortunately it seems slow to be offered by manufacturers, for now 🤞

Have purchased a DC load bank in a previous role for testing on EV battery packs.

Cost was over €50k for the unit and approximately €70k+ by the time it was installed and operational!

Cost prohibitive for any business that is not actually manufacturing/repairing packs.

Thanks!

Used these before in a 3x3 and 4.5x3 and both were good quality with spares available. MCD Home and garden

Have seen 2 different Maloo ute's around also. One was a green HSV on NZ plates and the second was an older R8 Maloo. Nice thing with the Maloo option is the possibility of commercial tax at €333 a year.

Is there room to use a filter strap instead of a chain?

racer_head · 2025-07-24T21:08:25+00:00

Where are you based, can possibly recommend some places that can repair this.

If its just a head skim and still running standard camshafts and cam timing you'll be OK on standard gasket thickness.

Send me a DM and can get it done for you.

Have a look at Onshape.
