The Auto Cycle Union wishes to co-announce that the usual after race technical inspection of the winning motorcycles in the Lightweight race revealed that the motorcycle which finished first in the 400cc Class (No 64, Yamaha FZR400, rider Geoff McMullan) had an engine cubic capacity exceeding the 400cc permitted limit for the class. The actual measurement was 599.06cc.
