RST MOTORCYCLE CLOTHING GOLDEN ERA SUPERBIKES - 2012 (release 10 of 12)

Our newest and certainly one of our most exciting championships for 2012, is the resurrection of Superbike racing as it used to be back in the golden age of the 1990’s. The concept of classic 750cc Superbikes taking on the big Ducati & Aprilia twins of the same period has really attracted the attention of both riders and sponsors.

We are delighted to have a dedicated media partner for Golden Era Superbikes in the form of Performance Bikes Magazine, the biggest and best motorcycle publication in the country at the moment. PB will not only be doing the reportage on the series, but also running a Triumph 955i in the series too. Watch out for Matt Wildee’s monthly articles as the season progresses.

Title sponsorship and TV funding comes from Moto Direct, the UK importers for AGV helmets and owners of the fastest growing and best selling protective clothing brand - RST.

AGV helmets are probably best known as the choice of Valentino Rossi, Max Biaggi and Giacomo Agostini, but they have also supplied a host of British riders such as Guy Martin, Barry Sheene & Jamie Whitham.

RST leathers are the choice of numerous British Championship riders including Alastair Seeley, Graeme Gowland, Ian Hutchinson, Chris Walker, Karl Harris, Paul Young, Billy McConnell and Christian Iddon.

Moto Direct have also set aside part of their sponsorship budget to subsidise a whole range of top quality riding kit for Thundersport GB registered riders. The nominated outlet for these deals is Sparklight Racing Ltd www.sparklightracing.co.uk in Essex. Below are just some of the huge range of products available.

There is also a full repair and badging shop in the RST Race Shop at South Normanton in Derbyshire. To see the full range of products and services visit www.moto-direct.com
