Yes you have to have a dog tag, ACU rules I'm affraid and quite handy if you bleed to death although you no longer have to put your blood group on anymore for some reason
Like Stu I've got thousands of boring photo's of going round corners, the airbourne/wheel up ones stand out from the rest and prove the TL is still a fiesty little fooker despite been 11 years old

Don't forget your 2kilo powder extinguisher, not checked very often, but sods law says they'll check when you don't have one with you 
Your probably just as well running wets all the time James, saves changing wheels  I have my rad cap & oil filler wired, you don't need to do it but it looks good when your scrutineering  Make sure your helmet has the 2 stripes round the ACU sticker, should have, as they changed quite a while ago.
See you at Mallory in a couple of weeks

Good point about the radiator cap, you're not supposed to run antifreeze but I'm buggered if I'm running a £??,000 engine on water  I keep mine lockwired so the scrutineers can't check easily.

hi james my sharks fin is a 50p old ally heel plate. dog tag a key fobs good enough must be on a chain or cord that will snap before it cuts your head off a cotton link will do. wets should b fine. only other thing they seem to pull people on is front brake lines arn't allowed to split below bottom yolk. a lot of bikes have this as standard worth a check.
