T-850 motors?

Can anyone tell me what motors are legal in T-850? Do they have to meet current UIM homologation?

Mark, Yes it's the Yamaha racing 70CES short shaft, the same used in S850/F4. Every motor used in Euro Class racing has to meet UIM specs/homologation.

Thank you gentlemen. Some has been asking about running a Merc 650xs or 700x in T-850, but I suspected those motors were no longer allowed because they have been out of production for more than 10 years and parts have not been available for a very long time.
