I have been to the Salt Flats when riding thru Utah, but have never ridden on the salt racing surface. Strange surface.

My first bike was a 1971 Honda CB175, so its an emotional thing. I really enjoy working on them. I look forward to the research and modifications.
I’ve got a GW rally in Colorado this fall. Plans include a couple of days to go to Bonneville, take in the sights, and ask questions.
FWIW, there’s 50 175cc classes. The MPS (Modified Partial Streamlining) looks promising. The current record holder is a gal from Texas with an average speed of 84mph.
