maybe this type of pipe could have the outlet aimed at the chain to keep it lubed

Now there's an idea!

To answer your questions; I've not ridden it much so far in this configuration, as there is still a small amount of work left to do before registering. However, the silencer exit is angled slightly away from the bike and is below the level of the foot rest, so no smoke in the face and I don't expect any unburnt fuel-oil mixture on the left boot or rear tyre. Still, these are aspects I will be watching out for when the bike gets on the road. Whether it blows any dust remains to be seen - if it does, I might be able to use the bike for clearing the footpath outside the house as well .

Regards,
James

Probably a good idea to release any changes to the competition classes now. People will be busy preparing bikes under the current format (I was told by PD that everything was the same as last year) & need to know ASAP if the changes will affect them.

There are no changes that will affect machine eligibility; those classes remain as they were in 2019, i.e. V1 (pre 76), V2 (pre 80), V3 (pre 84) & V4 (pre 88).

On the subject of bike eligibility, please note that parts from later models cannot be fitted. Contact VERi before the event if you have any eligibility questions.

I'm in Moranbah most of the time for work, but I also have a place on the Sunshine Coast. Much better tracks down there!

Competition / 2020 Australian 3 Day Vintage Enduro (A3VE)

« Last post by VERi on January 27, 2020, 10:49:59 PM »

The second edition of the Australian 3 Day Vintage Enduro (A3VE) will be held in the Wombat Forest around Blackwood in Victoria. This is the same venue as last year.

Date: 21-24 May 2020

Like last year, the event will cater for pre 1988 machines, with four separate classes and a women's class. We have made some changes to the competition classes, which will be announced soon. There will again be a non-competitive rally class.

Stay tuned for more details, and keep checking the VERi website and FaceBook page.
