MK200 2012 Schedule (aka cheat sheet)

Saturday Route Schedule: MK12-Schedule

Clarification of mileage reset to 20.7 shown on the schedule and cheat sheets: The purpose of the mileage reset at 16.7 to 20.7 is to force a time break in the schedule to allow us time to clear the course prior to proceeding into a previously traveled route. There will be a sign on the course to tell you where to do the mileage reset. The cheat sheet lines leading up to 20.7 could have been eliminated since they are not used. To sum it up: When you get to the reset sign, reset your mileage to 20.7 and wait until keytime 9:28 until proceeding on the course.

Correction to the below Cheat Sheets (Please make the changes to your cheat sheets):

  • At the end of Section 1, add “Gas, 15 minutes”
  • At the end of Section 3, instead of “A=Gas, 15 minutes” it should say “A=Gas, 5 minutes”

AMA: A Taxing Situation

If you are not a member of the AMA now is a good time to seriously consider joining. There are things happening not only across the mainland, but also right here in Hawaii. We are going to need all the help we can get. I found this article by the AMA president particularly timely.

Abercrombie stamps out street legal “dirt bikes”

It is ironic that on May 26, two days before this year’s MK200 the Governor signed into law Senate Bill 1325 which disallows a new registration for “dirt bikes”. The bill was a part of the Governor’s package of bills submitted to the Legislature this past session.

A part of the new language in the law:

Except for motorcycles that are built on an aftermarket motorcycle frame, special interest vehicles, and reconstructed vehicles, any motor vehicle or device that is not certified by the manufacturer to be in compliance with all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards as of the date of manufacturer shall not be registered.

An aftermarket motorcycle frame is defined as:

“Aftermarket motorcycle frame” means a frame that is manufactured to replace the frame of a motorcycle that was certified by its manufacturer to be in compliance with all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards as of the date of manufacture, or the frame of a homemade motorcycle that was manufactured not for profit by a person who built the motorcycle as a hobby.

What this means is that if you wanted to make your KTM300 into a “chopper” you could do so by making your own frame; but who in their right mind would want to do that. There was no testimony on this bill at the Legislature except from the State Department of Transportation and the City and County of Honolulu who cited “public safety”. We don’t think that either of two agencies really thinks that your chopped KTM300 is safer in the frame you made yourself. It is doubtful that the motivation for this move came from either of those two anyway but from other entities who would like to “keep you on the reservation”.

In light of this, the RIR will probably change it’s policy of requiring street legal bikes next year. Stay tuned for future announcements.
