Thread: Quickshifter & Traction Control rules question

    Quickshifter & Traction Control rules question

    I want to race my Ninja 636 this year but not clear on two rules:

    1. My 2013 636 has factory traction control. Can I race with it turned off? I'm reading the rules to say I can't have traction control.

    2. Can I race with a quick shifter? "Supersport" rules seem to indicate no quick shifters but I only see "superstock" class races listed on the schedule for this last race weekend.

    Thank you

    1. If it has it from the factory it's ok
    2. Qs is ok

    I believe the only supersport class we have this year is C Supersport endurance. In previous years, we had more supersport classes (especially in ultra-lightweight), but that's been phased out. Quick shifters are allowed in superstock.

    IIRC, quick shifters are allowed in the SS classes as long as it is not a mechanically operated quick shifter. So, a device that sits in between your shift linkage, detects pressure, and sends a kill signal to the engine is OK but a hydraullically operated machine that actually lifts and pushes the lever itself is not.

    Thanks guys. That answers it all. I appreciate your time

    KTM RC390 is the only other machine I'm aware of that is required to be limited to Supersport.
