Racing's Taylor Kiser rounded out the Pro ATV Podium at Monster Mountain after adjusted time |
Despite some of the rumors that Taylor Kiser would be racing on a Suzuki LTR450 this year, Kiser laid those rumors to rest when he showed up at the opening round of the AMA MAXC Racing Season. For 2013, Taylor Kiser is once again aboard a Ballance Racing backed Yamaha YFZ450R ATV. This year, Kiser has chosen to take a step back from GNCC Racing and race the AMA MAXC Racing Series full time.
When asked about any off-season training, Kiser stated that he hasn’t done much riding in the offseason, but it sure doesn’t look like Kiser has lost much speed. Kiser was able to lead 2 laps before falling back to third place before the finish earning the final spot on the AMA MAXC Pro AA Class Podium.

“We got off to a decent start, I was fourth or so and was to make my way towards the front. I started slipping back and these guys starting making some passes and I was just struggling because I haven’t rode much this winter. I was glad to get back out here and ride and get on the podium.” Stated Taylor Kiser of his Podium finish.
