I just heard of it while I was looking up something during a Google search and wondered if I could get any more info as to just what Bucket Racing is all about ?

Bucket racing in OZ usually involves drinking too much alcohol then racing for a bucket, It has the propensity to get quite messy without the bucket.......

   the once swallowed alcohol of course, and anything eaten before hand, easier to clean out of a bucket than the carpet...

I don't know if its still around but there was also cb350 four only class aswell,had to be bone stock,i think only lighting could be removed?still had to have battery and working alternator etc,i think exhausts could be changed to save damaging the stock 4-4?

[dave500]

I could be wrong but. bucket racing started in NZed when the overworked airforce guys started racing cheap bikes round the airfield.
I like Micks idea better.

That looks like a real blast on them small bikes;be tougher to get yourself 'in over your head' w/ speed on them.
