YZ85

ELIGIBILITY

Yamaha Motor Europe’s bLU cRU rules state that to participate in the full programme, riders must race in an FIM or ACU affiliated race series. In the UK, that means we’ll consider riders racing in categories at the Revo ACU British Motocross Championship and Michelin MX Nationals. Our bLU cRU ambassador Jeff Perrett and Cab Screens Crescent Yamaha will be present at all of these rounds for support. Yamaha Motor UK do offer a bLU cRU programme for junior riders competing in local, non-FIM or ACU affiliated series, which includes those riding a YZ250 if aged under 16. These riders will receive a Paddock Blue t-shirt and cap and will also be invited to the bLU cRU Training Days but will not be eligible for selection for the YZ bLU cRU SuperFinale or Masterclass events.
