SUBJECT: Supersport and Superstock Fork Braces

The following is a clarification of an existing rule regarding fork braces in Supersport and Superstock listed on page 17 of the AMA Chevrolet Superbike Championship 2004 Rulebook as item 12c:

Fork braces must function solely as a strengthening device for the front fork structure.

Braces incorporating any air management qualities such as downforce producing deflectors or ducts that redirect incoming air are not permitted. The determination of air management qualities will be at the sole discretion of the Race Manager and the Chief Technical Inspector.

Should you have any questions concerning this change, please contact Technical Manager Rob King at (614) 856-1910, extension 1230.
