Otherwise you will probablu break a few drillbits. http://www.irvansmith.com/catalog2/parts/safety_wi re.shtml good overview, but like jetrider said, check with the track youa re riding at to see if they have specific requirements...unless you are just doing it for shiz and giggles http://www.whizwheels.com/Tips/safetywiring.html   Xbob Posted on Sunday, February 18, 2007 - 10:29 pm:        thanks guys   Blake Posted on Monday, February 19, 2007 - 12:20 am:        Safety wiring 101 for your Buell... http://www.badweatherbikers.com/cgibin/discus/show .cgi?tpc=158664&post=607352#POST607352 http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/327 77/44334.html http://www.badweatherbikers.com/cgibin/discus/show .cgi?tpc=6817&post=531191#POST531191 (Message edited by blake on February 19, 2007)   Slaughter Posted on Monday, February 19, 2007 - 08:24 am:        Check with your race organization. They vary TONS. AMA for example doesn't require half the safety wire as most of the Clubs. Buy a half dozen 1/16 drills - buy the drill fixtures. Use a drill press. Use coolant/lube - PECK DRILL - don't drill in one pass (it'll break the drill every time and you end up with bolt heads that look like porcupines) This is the article that we refer folks to who are new to WSMC racing: http://www.sportrider.com/tech/146_0002_hand/ (Message edited by slaughter on February 19, 2007) Blake fix link.
