vasey15 Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 I was hoping a few of you SSDT vets, could point me in the right direction as far as getting my bike through scrutineering. What does my bike need to have to pass? As it stands, I don't have light's, speedo or side stand. I am aware that I need a side stand and speedo, however, can I get away with a cheap speedo from halfords? Also do I need a horn? Basically I'm not wanting to spend too much money, and from the price list for the speedo, wiring loom, horn and lights, it starts to get a wee bit pricey. cheers.

nzralphy Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 Ahhhh the ssdt scrutinising team. Used to be known as frustrated wanabe policemen.... but were infact perfectly reasonable chaps. We had a scare in '89 over FIM noise levels. I had the official Fantic but-plug fitted in the tail pipe to quieten the bike and their comment was.... wait for it.... oh that passed easily! .......Or in other words, everyone else passed and we didn't have to move the noise meter so far away on yours to get a pass. I was the only one with the exhaust part fitted. Sigh. The guys did pick me up on something minor so i walked around the ParkF and brought the bit needed. Fitted it and done. They won't check your speedo works. Anyway how could they! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not we'll start whinging... We have a 24 Hour Road Trial here (for Enduro bikes) and you can be assured that at least one control during the night some partially clad female will welcome you into a control or at least be naked on the side of the course. This helps restore blood circulation in the middle of the night. I remember the year I did it arriving into a secret control at around midnight to be greeted by two young nubile nymphs only wearing their panties. I was so disappointed they where not there on the next lap 6 hours later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
