| Important Announcement for TaG Junior Competitors |

SKUSA has been concerned for some time about the performance level of the Leopard Junior. Results from recent races where Leopard Juniors and KF3 classes were run at the same time indicate that the Leopard with 30mm restricted header had performance equal to or perhaps better than the KF3 class. For those of you not familiar with KF3, it is the International Junior class that replaced JICA. SKUSA feels that this performance level is not appropriate for the majority of Junior competitors who might be transitioning from slower classes such as Yamaha Junior Superbox or HPV Junior. With this in mind, we are implementing the use of the 25mm Factory header instead of the 30mm header. Note that we have done – in conjunction with other groups – considerable testing of a number of combinations (including headers and carburetors), and feel that this is the most cost-effective solution at this time. We do reserve the right to implement additional changes should this change not result in the desired slowing of the class. Both importers have indicated they have sufficient stocks of the 25mm header to supply dealers and competitors. Feel free to contact me with your comments.
