only in Unlimited GT last I knew. A guy that I got into racing with (hes an idiot) did it on a gsxr 1k in 2006.

he totaled it his second race weekend.

[Crash Dummy Denno]

OK YEAH - im seeing em in GTO, so i was confused, i thought you had to be expert to race one

hope your buddy was ok - why is it always gixxers?

[Pittenger5]

Probably trying to wheelie into the bowl. GIXXXAHHH!

the kid took me out going into T1 in a practice cuz he thought he was nicky haden...then later in his race sunday he highsided in 10...broke his ankle and totaled his bike.

there were like 5 complaints about him, they almost took his license but he crashed before they had a chance (or so i heard) haha.

i met him on the speedfreakinc forum, go figure

be nice fellow yellow bike buddy

[OreoGaborio]

Yeah, you can do it... Clayton rode a 1000cc bike from the exit of turn 10 to the grass inside Nascar turn 4 once during a race & he's not an Expert.

I jettisoned the extra 500cc's before the NASCAR oval to keep me legal for Ptwins. Still managed a 4th!

[Crash Dummy Denno]

Yeah, you can do it...

not planning on it - just wondering

[OreoGaborio]

yeah I know. foo.

btw, check your PM's in about 2 minutes.

slowest 1000cc out there, also weighed more than many small cars...

Upon further research, Novices with 1000cc can ride in:

Heavyweight Supersport, Heavyweight Superbike, GTO and......wait.......that's all?

I don't think they can run heavyweight classes, just GTO. I thought the limit for heavyweight was 775cc 4 cyl liquid cooled.

not so sure about that - i think you can only run GTO... but now I'm confused

It doesn't fall under the "all other configurations" catagory based on number of valves per cyl?

EDIT: NEVERMIND!

Shit man...I should start looking into riding a different bike...

[wookie]

I think we were trying to tell you that?

Any idea what you might want to race?

Yeah, the 929 till I bump to amateur......although I did see a really nice RSV Mille for short money...

The good news if that yes, you can run a 1000cc I4 as a Novice. The bad news is that LRRS only runs one Novice class (GTO) that it's legal in.

he totaled it his second race weekend.

Consider him the poster child for why we do this.

yea i figured....it makes comeplete sense

[BLACK SQUIRREL]

at 1 race per weekend you will be ready to bump by the 2010 season
