Why should 4 stroke get their own exclusive class. 2 strokes don't. They can race in Pre 75' 78, Evo, Pre 85 etc.

They were given a trial class at a recent National meeting to test their viability. How did that go.

Because we race for fun and it is cool to see a field of thumpers fanging around the track. Four stroke class is always well supported. Gives another option for those cursed with owning one ????

next we will need a same sex bike class, maybe a class for bikes who run 40:1 instead of the norm 25:1 oil mixes, or dare I say coloured bike class's, and then we will run them altogether. just run your fourstroke in it's class, they arnt special.

As much as I'd personally like to see a separate class for thumpers, there is no need for a 4st class when they are competitive against the smokers anyway  ;D Apart from that, I don't think there are enough bikes around yet. Emphasis on the YET

Trev,  cast your mind back 2006 or 07 we pushed for that class , ended up a full 40 bike grid, I looked up from the line and saw you standing in the tower, the roar off the line was a sound to behold
Gosh its a shame a slow 4 stroke trail bike can go so Fast !!

How a class given the opportunity to enhance it's cause at National level can be twisted around to two clubs not attending is complete lunacy. You are becoming quite good at that.

How did that go? Exactly the way the vast minority predicted. I was dumbfounded that you were surprised with the lack of entrants.

Fourstroke and worms have nailed it

No that has to be Red German bikes. There is some Jap Crap with left side kick start too.

As for 4 Stroke class.  WHY!!!!

Ted  You must know that HEAVEN and QVMX are to blame for everything, including the earthquake in Nepal.

There must be something wrong, I agree with worms and Ted, but I still hate Manly.

Here you go, the bike to suit everyone, a Euro Kawasaki.
If you can get a fleet of these for the Kings and Anderson to ride  it might make some of the racing a little bit closer

It would be better to get some postie bikes, they are legal for the Evolution Class.  Not left side kickstarter though.
