I've seen this posted somewhere on the forum already, but not in the racing section and I can't find it...

So the asia enduro champ. is this December in Pattaya, but there is a twist...

Only Thai made bikes can enter, which means 2 type of bikes... honda 250 CRF-L and kawa KLX250.

Info here with my own translation:

Asian Enduro Championship 2012


รุ่นการแข่งขันจะเหลือรุ่นเดียวนะครับ
(only one category remains)

รุ่น ED3 : เป็นรุ่นไม่เกิน 250 CC / รถเอ็นดูโร่ตลาด
มีรถที่ถูกกำนดไว้ เป็นรถสายพานทีผลิตตลาดประเทศไทย 2 ยี่ห้อ คือ
(cat ED 3: not over 250cc. Bikes produced in Thailand, choice of 2 brands)

Honda CRF250L Kawasaki KLX250

So reading the comments it seems that it comes from the sponsors who only want Thai bikes. People are a bit pissed about it.
 
What a joke!

Two trail bikes to choose from for an "international" enduro.
 
More like "two dual-sport bikes to choose from".

Notice I didn't see FIM anywhere... Might as well be a made-up event name to attract people.

Good point, plenty of people will think it's an FIM officially sanctioned race I guess, I did!
