MSA issue 2016 Tech Reg changes for Honda Cadet

A new exhaust system will be introduced for the Honda GX160 engine from 1st January 2016.

Although eligible from this date, it is not intended to be mandatory until 31st March 2016, which will be reflected in the 2016 Class Regulations when published. The final specification of the new exhaust system is currently being finalised and will be announced in a specific bulletin prior to 2016.

There will also be a new-for–2016 requirement for a non-return valve to be fitted on the fuel tank breather pipe for the Honda Cadet class.

A specific model is not identified, but it must be functional and fit for purpose.
