Motorcycle
Whether it’s your bike or one of ours all motorcycles must be in a roadworthy/track-worthy condition prior to being deemed safe to ride on the circuit.
The following items will be scrutineered on the morning of your event:
- All treaded tyres must have a minimum of 2mm tread depth above the wear indicator at the beginning of the day – this includes centre as well as sides. If subsequent inspection during the day shows the tyre to be on or below the tread depth indicator access to the track may be denied;
- Slick tyres can be used on dry a track only. Access may be denied if the track is deemed unsuitable for slick tyres;
- Front and rear brake pads must be deemed to have suitable material to complete a day at the racetrack;

- Front & rear brakes must operate correctly upon testing;
- Fork seals must not show any signs of leaking or weeping fluid;
- There must be no evidence of oil leaks or weeps of any kind;
- Fairings must be secured correctly (no race tape!);

- Foot pegs and mounting brackets must be secured and aligned correctly;
