[QUOTE="greg brillus, post: 51767, member: 597"] The class I will be running is period 3 classic, from 1st January 1946 to 31 December 1962....All Major components are All engine and gearbox external castings, Frames, Swingarms, Brakes, Forks and Fork Yolks. All other components shall be considered as minor components. Note also we are allowed to run any mechanical drum brake up to 230 mm ( a definite plus for a Vincent). Remember that most of these suspension modifications are quite inconspicuous, except for the coilovers and the missing front springbox's......Also bare in mind, how different is what I am doing to the original front spring on a set of Bramptons. I could put a black shroud over the spring to hide it a little, but most race bikes of the same era that I see run modern coilovers on the rear....so what is the difference..? The reg's do say that you cannot use shocker units with a separate reservoir. [/QUOTE]
