what are the rules to racing in the 12' class as far as motor size? can the pitster 150 race in it? i'm fairly new to the mini bike world and i don't know all the rules and regulations. thanks.

Alot of tracks I read about normally have no CC limits. Just call where you want to ride or go down there and ask.

All the places in socal are by wheel size,so build a 350 if you want.

They still have to be horizontal air cooled motors to meet the rules,but as far as cc'c go the sky is the limit.

Has to be an open cradle frame tho. :P These no point cause the guy with a slower motor will be hooking like crazy.

Air cooled and as big as you want, start with the 160cc and go for it, We have NCC build 184cc in our Pitster Pro x4, x4r race bikes and doing very well.

yeah but i'm not talking about racing one. i'm just saying doing it for the hell of it. just to see what kind of frankenstein monster you'd have if you put a cr or kx 500 motor in like a klx 110. that is if it's even possable. you probably woudn't be able to keep the front tire off the ground. ha

A yz125 would be plenty and you may just be able to ride it. But remember the sprockets lining up, footpeg mount, a 520 rear sprocket would have to be made, ETC.
