“We’re ecstatic with the results
these great champions were able to accomplish
in 2010,” said Suzuki Manager of Communications,
Steve Bortolamedi. “It is a testament
to the hard work and will of the riders and
teams, as well as the power and performance
of Suzuki Motorcycles and ATVs.”
“Our results speak for themselves, as
Suzuki motorcycles and ATVs have been dominant
in many categories since their introduction,”
continues Bortolamedi. “Suzuki’s
DNA, the GSX-R sportbike, has completely dominated
the AMA Superbike Championship series for
well over the past decade. The Suzuki RM-Z450
was the first four-stroke AMA Supercross champion,
as well as the first fuel-injected AMA Supercross
& Motocross championship motorcycle. The
RM-Z450 also holds the honors of having the
most AMA Motocross titles and by far the most
AMA Motocross wins of any 450 four-stroke
motorcycle. Our Suzuki QuadRacer R450 has
dominated the AMA ATV Motocross championship
scoring titles for the last three years in
a row. The potent and reliable Suzuki QuadRacer
has also dominated and claimed the last two
GNCC ATV XC1 Championships as well.”
“We’ve been fortunate to have
quality, competitive product, strong results
and great sponsors to build such a strong
and dominant race program,” said Suzuki
Motorcycle and ATV National Sales Manager,
Rod Lopusnak. “Our goal is to maintain
this position and continue this success in
2011 and beyond.”
In 2011, American Suzuki will continue to
offer racers at all levels their industry-leading
support and contingency programs.
