    Can I race my Honda CRF250R Motard with a stock motor in this class?

    Clubman, Yes but not really competitive with only 27HP, DSB ? Says twins only.

    Just looking for a competitive class to have a bit of fun in.

    Until I see a Honda 250 it's a definitely maybe. Odds are good it'll be in. A motard will not.

    Did you get another 675 yet? You could always race in the Twins classes :D

    Sean, just looking at the Honda numbers, its going to be a pig. Even in SB trim, I dont know if it will be able to keep up with a well tuned Kaw 250R.

    I agree - looking at the numbers. However I've found reality can be different.

    Can I ask your reasoning for this?

    A 27BHP motard doesn't stand a chance against most Clubman bikes.

    As far as I see it, make them* legal for E-SS, collect additional revenue and give the class some variety and increase grid size?

    *Honda and the WR250X

    Because a motard isn't always 27 horsepower and ESS is a production street bike class. If you want to run a motard we have classes for that. Hell, I had a motard specific class and no one ran it either - adding maybe one bike to ESS won't make a bit of difference.

    My bad, I thought he was talking about a production bikes.

    I realized that was the Honda CRF230M and the Yamaha is the WR250X.

    I just thought those would fit in the class.

    Gotcha, no worries. That is kind of why I said with a stock 250 engine. Heck its no where near a stock ex250 power. It wont run fast enough in any other class, its just a 250 and I just ride it for fun. I agree probably would not make much difference either way that's why I thought I would see if it would be ok to ride. It would just get hammered in all the other classes including up against 450/520/560 motards.

    You can run it in DSB and Clubman, prolly not really competitive but should still be fun.

    You running stock wheels and brakes on it? If not I don't see why you would think it would be legal...

    well, ESS rules technically already allow all bikes to upgrade to 17" wheels.

    A stock 250r makes CONSIDERABLY more than 27HP, 32-38 is normal depending on year model. They are also about 100lb lighter than a EX250.
