How to choose the right race number for motocross and enduro

Choosing the right race number for motocross and enduro is an important part of both the competition rules and the rider's identity. The race number should not only comply with the competition regulations, but also be clear and durable under extreme conditions. Here is a guide on how to make the right choice.

1. Follow the competition rules

Rules for starting numbers vary between different motorsport disciplines and organizers. In motocross and enduro in Sweden, SVEMO 's rules apply. The rules specify, among other things:

  • Number size: For motocross, the numbers should be at least 10 cm high, while enduro often requires even larger numbers.
  • Color combinations: Different classes may have specific color requirements for numbers and backgrounds, such as black on white or white on red.
  • Positioning: The numbers must be placed on the front and side covers of the vehicle, and they should be clear from both distance and movement.

Following the rules is not only a requirement, but it also ensures that officials and fellow competitors can easily identify you.

2. Customize to your needs

In addition to following the rules, it is important to choose the right type of bib based on your equipment and race conditions:

  • Self-adhesive numbers: Perfect for quick and easy solutions, these can be purchased in bulk and applied directly to backgrounds or license plates.
  • Pre-printed kits: For those who want everything ready at once, complete start number kits are a convenient solution. These include both numbers and backgrounds that are pre-assembled.
  • Wear resistance and durability: For enduro, where mud and water are common, you should prioritize materials that can withstand stress.

3. Common mistakes to avoid

  • Wrong size: Too small numbers may cause your number to not be accepted by the organizer. Always double check the measurements before ordering.
  • Wrong color: If you are competing in a certain class with specific color requirements, make sure the numbers and background match these.
  • Lack of durability: Always choose products designed for motorsport, so they can withstand racing conditions without loosening or fading.

4. Make your number part of your identity

A race number is not just a racing rule – it can also become part of your personal identity as a driver. Many professional drivers have worn the same number throughout their careers, making it a symbol of their achievements and style. Choose a number that means something to you and make it your own.
