The homologated dimensions and position of bearing seats in the steering head<br />

column, and the engine, swing arm, rear shock, and suspension linkage mounting<br />

points must remain as original.<br />

Steering angle changes are permitted by fitting inserts onto the bearing seats of<br />

the original steering head, but no part of the insert must protrude axially more than<br />

3 mm. from the original steering head.<br />

All motorcycles must display a vehicle identification number punched on the frame<br />

body.<br />

The front fork in whole or part may be changed but must be the same type<br />

homologated (leading link, telescopic, etc.).<br />

No aftermarket or prototype electronically-controlled suspensions maybe used.<br />

An electronically-controlled suspension may only be used if already present<br />

The electronic interface between the rider and the suspension must remain<br />

as on the homologated motorcycle. It is allowed to remove or disable this<br />

rider interface.<br />

electronic failure.<br />

Electro-magnetic fluid systems which change the viscosity of the suspension<br />

fluid(s) during operation are not permitted.<br />
