    I read the rules. I know it says if it is not listed you cannot modify it. I'm asking anyway. Is a front mount radiator kit legal?

    I wouldnt see why it would be illegal....I ran a 636 radiator on my FZR400 in V6LW and no one protested lol....

    Moving location shouldnt matter...

    If it's an RC51, then Superstock restrictions apply in V7HW. Whatever it says in CH9 of the RB.

    From CH11 V7HW:
    Read CH9 carefully, but at a glance it looks like since the above bikes are exempted from the 'exact replica' bodywork Superstock requirement, other style bodywork would probably require you to move the radiators anyway. Seems logical that you'd have to modify the radiators somehow in that case.

    Did the bike come that way originally?

    No, the 51 has side mount radiators. A lowside can be super expensive if you damage one.

    I had planned to do the mod anyway, but I didn't want it to hold me back if I decided to campaign the Mid Central series this coming year. I've had a great time spectating for the last two years after the birth of my last child and have finally found the time and funds to do a couple track days this year. I think I may be a better fit in V7 than in the twins or SS classes. I know that's a long answer, but Yes.
