Lake O’ the Pines Bike Show Classes & Rules
The rules and some of the classes for this year’s bike show have changed.
All of last year’s winners are strongly encouraged to enter their bike that won into a new class called the Winner’s Circle which will be on top of the hill.
There are two Pacific Rim classes. Both are for 1990 and older models. One class is for bikes of less than 500cc and the other for bikes of 500cc or greater. The size is based on the bikes description such as CB750
and not the actual engine displacement.
Classes marked with an asterisk are restricted to factory production bikes. Bikes that have only one modification are eligible. However, bikes with more than one modification must be in either the Modified Street
(café) or the Modified Street (custom/chopped/bobbed) class. Modifications include custom paint jobs, clip-ons when handle bars were stock or vice versa, rear-sets and highly modified exhaust systems. Other
modifications will be assessed by the rallye chairman.
The pit bike / mini bike class is limited to 125cc or less.
