Interesting!
Set up a class and only allow 1 motor to run.
Has to be a six speed and a Harley six speed only!
So much for the thrill of competition.

Say it again but don't say you can't cheat.

It's not that unusual to have very specific limits on parts used on vehicles like this.  This is done in lots of "hobby" racing that is a lot more than just a hobby.  I think Formula "V" racing in some of the sport classes are very specific in what parts can or cannot be used.  It does even the playing field quite a bit.

To a slightly different level, I remember back in the '80s going to an IROC race where all the big names were driving, but all the cars were identical to the last degree.  That was a great race series and lots of fun to watch as it really boiled down to the driver and the pit crews.

If I were going to race a HD, this would be where I would want to do it.  Money helps, but does not buy you a victory.

Great concept and rules in my opinion.

Come on, it is AHDRA and the name says it all...  It's their game and their rules!

Here's a thought..... SBBDRA.   

Then you'd have to have a "S"ilver, "B"lack, and "B"lue bike to get in.
