Exclamation Safety Wiring Your Bike

To race on any track you will need to make sure you bike has been properly safety wired. Safety wiring prevents bolts and nuts from working their way loose compromising yours and other riders safety on the track. Proper safety wiring is a vital part of the technical inspection you will need to pass in order to get on the track.

Below are some photos along with descriptions of the safety wiring as well.

For the pinch bolts on this bike, safety wire clips which makes it easier to remove and install when making tire changes.

safety wiring is a PIA. Harborfrieght had 10 packs of 1/16th bolts for 1.00, I went through more then 30 bits doing my daytona. that was with a drill press. When I do my 510 i think im going to try and find a better quality bit.
