f) The original air ducts running between the fairing and the air box may be<br />

altered or replaced.<br />

g) The original air ducts into the airbox may be altered or replaced.<br />

Original openings for cooling in the lateral fairing/bodywork sections may<br />

be partially closed only to accommodate sponsors’ logos/lettering. Such<br />

modification shall be made using wire mesh or perforated plate. The material<br />

is free but the distance between all opening centres, circle centres and their<br />

diameters must be constant. Holes or perforations must have an open area<br />

ratio > 60%.<br />

h) The lower fairing has to be constructed to hold, in case of an engine<br />

breakdown, at least half of the total oil and engine coolant capacity used in<br />

the engine (minimum 5 ltrs). The lower edge of openings in the fairing must<br />

be positioned at least 50 mm above the bottom of the fairing.<br />

i) The lower fairing must incorporate a hole of 25 mm in the bottom of the front<br />

lower area. This hole must remain closed in dry conditions and must be only<br />

opened in wet race conditions as declared by the Race Director.<br />

j) Minimal changes are allowed to permit the use of an elevator (stand) for<br />

wheel changes and to add a small plastic protective cone to the frame or<br />

engine.<br />

k) Front mudguard must appear as originally supplied by the manufacturer for<br />

the homologated motorcycle.<br />

l) Front mudguard may be replaced with cosmetic duplicates of the original<br />

parts. The use of carbon fibre or Kevlar® composites is allowed.<br />

m) Front mudguard may be spaced upward for increased tyre clearance.<br />

n) Rear mudguard fixed on the swing-arm may be replaced with cosmetic<br />

duplicates of the original parts. The use of carbon fibre or Kevlar®<br />

composites is allowed.<br />

o) Rear mudguards fixed on the swing-arm which incorporate the chain guard<br />

may be modified to accommodate larger diameter rear sprockets.<br />

p) The existing rear mudguard under the seat may be removed. A mudguard<br />

may be fitted directly onto the swing-arm (it may not cover more than<br />

120 degrees of the wheel).<br />
