BIKE SETUP

A Dirt Track motorcycle set up has a very specific set of requirements that must be met to comply with the Manual of Motorsports (MoMs) before you take your bike on the track to commence racing. Bikes will be checked by a scrutineer at every race meeting. 

Key areas to note include:

  • Rear shark fin guards must be fitted
  • Any tyres may be used at St George Nepean race meetings 

For full details, please refer to the most current version of the MANUAL OF MOTORSPORT ON THE MNSW WEBSITE.

St George Motorcycle Club may also require a ‘pre-race’ checklist for riders to run through prior to a race event including a ‘Special Focus Area’ that we ask riders to pay particular attention to when preparing their bike for that round, for your safety, safety or other riders, and our volunteers.

RIDER GEAR

Once your bike has been set up you also need to make sure you are ready for racing. All rider gear will be checked by a scrutineer before each race meet.

Here are some of the key points to consider:

  • Helmet – Approved standard, no full depth scratches, note the serial number
  • Goggles – eye protection
  • Clothing – long trousers or pants, long sleeve shirt
  • Back protector – separate or integrated into leathers
  • Boots – good overall condition, no sharp edges
  • Gloves – good overall condition, no tears or holes
