    I agree with the blanket year groups and the selection of the start and end year(s)

    They will be sticklers for sure. not "looking". They will know and the inspectors check a whole lot. alot more than at a weekend enduro.

    as for the zoke conventionals that were all the rage at the time, some purple paint remover and paint them white, add stickers.........voila OEM Husky forks......kinda fat but look the part. I know FIM scrutineering will find them out.

    Can't see fim eligible bike listing that was mentioned under 1.4 in the preliminary regs
    "the FIM will publish and circulate a list of motorcycles that can take part in the Championship, drawn up on the basis of research made on articles published in magazines from the periods."

    I presume this to mean you can not race a Honda Elsinore with lights on it unless you can produce proof someone did it at the time. This should not be an issue for any Husky since there is very little real difference between the CRs and WRs of any year.

    You enter on line. Some of the detail is odd - do they really expect us to race on cracked 32 year old wheel rims

    Is it? I have 35+ vintage bikes, all of which I race, and they all have original or NOS period wheels/rims with no issues. What they dont want is modern anodized billet hubs black rims.

    Well, that is my entry accepted!

    Hope it is really hard and I come into the last check 59 minutes down after a 10 hour day. Going to be annoyed if it is a ride around the roads, especially as we all need a Stress ECG, Start Permit, License, fuel service, Ferry trip, week off work, insurance etc...

    See you all there...

    I just attended the North American CONU's FIM Enduro Seminar and we reviewed the rules.

    I don't envy the job of the technical delegate at this event......
