Twin shock/non linkage, air cooled, drum brakes without the BS. 1985 cut off for parts. So you can use a CR480/500, KX420/500, RM465/500 etc in a twin shock chassis. NO you can't convert your CR500, KX500 or RM500 into a twin shock rear end. You can use any conventional forks which were originally fitted with drum brakes, even if they came from a single shock bike. The way EVO should be using the basic guidelines of no linkage, air cooled, drum brakes. Bring on the big bore twin shocks! Sounds good, I hope we get to see some trick bikes on the track, although I doubt I'll be riding one.
Cheers,
K

So are you saying I can take a kx500 air cooled motor and put it into a twin shocked frame and race in Ultimate evo class, but I can't put twin shocks on the same kx 500 frame to race the same class?

The rules are already in the MA rulebook so you've got nothing to worry about.

Yep, the can of worms has been opened (no pun intended Trev ;)) Sounds like the addition of a class to suit the bikes some people have built, but don't want to race in pre '90 for whatever reason.

no pun taken ;D, but lets face facts, our sport is about SHOWCASEING era's of machines, not about how good you can body shop bikes, apply the Kiss factor, if it wasnt made as a machine ,it shouldnt have a class.F##KING simple.

I am confused. We already have a EVO class, now do we have an 'Ultimate Evo class' aswell or are we talking the same class ???

Saying pre85 cut parts cut off, would that relate to newer model adjustable shocks etc etc.. ???  there is some fancy shocks getting around. Just asking?

Basically it sounds like a class designed to allow hybrid big bore twin shock Honda and Kawasakis to race in the Evo class.
