[QUOTE="keny1, post: 29801, member: 2637"] Hi All Passenger is right, the 74 & 80 Indian would fit in the 1350 cc vintage class rules. Holiday weekend so no way to call the officials and ask about the vintage production class OEM displacement rule. The 1200 Vincents ran in a non production class, different rules for them. The Vincent Racing Team in the 1350 cc class, set the M-VG class at 151.835 mph and MPS-VG class at 160.076 mph. Steve is also correct in that you are allowed to increase the displacement to the class limit. There being no 150 cc class, so a factory 150cc bike could be maded to 175 cc's to run the 175 class , but not made into a 250 cc bike for the 250 class, as I read the OEM production vintage rules. Anyway I repeat, That [FONT=Arial][COLOR=#000000]I will have to read the rule book again. It would be a big mistake to build a bike that does not meet the class rules.
