If it still has the under tail exhaust,they would have to go before it would be VRRA legal.

Honda's FWS1000 from 1982, first V4 on the track, one pipe under tail and one right side. The NR was likely the first street bike to run under tail exhaust.

GP two strokes were doing it for years prior to the FWS

Hey Jim,I was just trying to give him a heads up.These are the rules.If you want to change
them you know the process.

I am familiar with the process Brad.

Changing the mid pipe and can location is an easy mod, I personally don't think it is necessary. There are lots of examples mixed models in the club, crossing a 2 stroke frame and body with a 4 stroke engine is entirely reasonable. The exhaust can go where it fits, my 2 cents.

Apparently the exhaust has to be changed to be legal, but I think the price reflects that, I did say OBO.

This post will probably get me in hot water but...

Isn't this bike's high pipe only a problem if one of it's competitors files a protest? No under-seat exhausts is definately in the rule book, but does that preclude it not getting on the grid, or only make it a target for protests should someone find the need to do so? Seems more like a valid question now that I've written it out... :lol:

This particular bike has a history as being denied eligibility to race at an event several years ago. I doubt it would slip under the radar..especially after this thread..

Despite what some may believe...the executive does read the Forum... :lol:

I hope all this attention helps to sell it. P.S it can go back to street legal.
