Husaberg
motosports round 2.
In brillant sunshine approximately 45 riders
competed at the second Husaberg Motosport supermoto track
at Taupo's Centennial park raceway.
Sam Smith was one of a number of riders
on 125 two strokes and 250 four strokes.
The Saturday (June 12) event saw an influx
of 17 inch wheel kitted bikes compete in the main S1 races
with in excess of 15 bikes riding in the Sportsman all (capcity,
standard wheels and brakes, machines) in class. The quad
numbers were a little down.
The KTM duo of Briggs and Stephenson were again
the dominate force. Briggs, who was full of the flu, managed
to again secure the overall win for the day.
Brent Symes finished 4th overall in the 'Open'
class but couldn't keep it together in the stock class races.
Motocrossers Kyle Smith and Carl Richmond showed good speed
in their respective stock classes.
Doug Barnett looked to be the fastest man in
the quad class.

Affordable?
The series has an unbelievable deal going on
leathers and tyres for those looking at contesting a minimum
of 2 rounds.
Series boss Nigel Bevin also tells us that the
event is run under the New Zealand dirt bike federation so
there is no need for a MNZ competition licence.
The next round is on Sunday
18th of July.
