i'm considering to take part in the sm race locally

my xr will just be sporting street tyres and perhap a oversize brake disc

in the sm class here, there are WR400, KTM400, YZF450, XR650, KTM250(2smoker) on the grid line.

what do i do to prepare for the race.

guess i will be the only guy on 21" and 18" wheel.

pls advice folks. :?

Run your overflows into catch tanks, work out what you need to lockwire, take off lights, mirrors, etc, stick some number plates on and go race! 8)

All those thigs that Neil suggested you do to race prep your bike, do the weekend before not the night (late) before. Hey Neil :D

Sorry about the photo mate, after getting shit for intentionally not taking photo's of sibbo picking it up I though I'd better get you. :?
