And how would you know that ? were you there when they built it?, its a 500 gp two stroke and about as near to a road bike as a rcv211. The engines for formula 1 are supposed to come from road bikes that is one of the original rules of F1, the race is titled CLASSIC TT F1. Whilst you are on the subject of the article in pb it could be argued that the bike has returned to its roots as a road bike somthing that two stroke would never be any good at.

No, I was not there when it was built, but I did follow Padgets on Twitter where they posted photos of it over a few moths as it was re-built.
If you read my posts, I dont agree with the Yam being in the race either, but if they are going to run bikes like the XR69, it might as well be a free for all.
Where else can these XR69 look a likes be raced?
