andout 651 Posted January 5, 2019 Helmet Colour change for the 2019 season. All British League fixtures will now include the Yellow Helmet Colour replacing the previous Yellow/Black. AND: The Speedway Control Bureau would like to make riders aware that from the 2020 season the FIM will make compulsory rev limiter for 500cc motorcycles.The official FIM ruling is as follows:REV LIMITERAll 250cc engines shall incorporate an ignition system with rev limiter. Such rev limiters must remain unmodified as delivered by the manufacturer, (including all modifications of the standard voltage).The rev limiter shall restrict the engine maximum rotational speed to 13,500 RPM. The rev limiter is also recommended for 500cc engines (mandatory as from 2020). It is recommended to use soft-cut rev limiters. The hard rev-limit must be set to 13,500 RPM. A soft limiter is recommended before the hard limiter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
uk_martin 1,606 Posted January 12, 2019 Great! Any particular shade of yellow? Hi-Viz yellow perhaps, or a gentler shade of dandelion? Lemon Yellow maybe? Take your pick, which would you prefer? I dare anone to tell the difference between Banana Yellow and White on a wet muddy day after a few heats of use. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Depending what kind of wash they put it on I suspect we will see riders wearing every shade on your chart by the end of the season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now caught up, thank you. I am shocked. I thought he was a lot younger, but then the years roll by. I remember members ribbing him about him being a university student. He always had a good input of speedway chat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
