[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 113307, member: 60"] A note on belly pans having researched the ACU rules for the new twin racer it says that the belly pan should be large enough to contain the contents of the [U]sump.[/U] Note of course that they were thinking Jap stuff with engine oil storage not 75 year old engines on bikes with oil tanks. Now I guess the contents of a Vincent sump is that compartment tucked away at the back of the crankcase waiting to be sucked back to the tank so thats what 60cc? 120cc? Whatever it means a small belly pan and thats important because the smaller the pan the better you can tuck the exhausts away. And just have your arguments ready for the scrutineer. [/QUOTE]
