Ken Roczen Ready To Make His RCH Factory Racing Debut At A1

Posted:

RCH Suzuki Factory Racing‰Ûªs new team rider Ken Roczen lines-up for his first competitive outing on the 2015 RM-Z450 at this weekend‰Ûªs opening round of the AMA/ FIM World Supercross Championship at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, California.

After signing Roczen over the off season and bringing back veteran Broc Tickle to ride the RCH Soaring Eagle/Jimmy Johns/Suzuki Factory Racing Suzuki RM-Z450s, the 2015 season holds the most promise to date for the team co-owned by Carey Hart and Ricky Carmichael to compete for the highly-coveted Supercross Championship that kicks-off on January 3rd.

For his part, Tickle was on track for a breakout performance last season until injuries sustained in March following a practice crash at the Toronto Supercross, left him side-lined for the remainder of 2014. Since then, the Michigan rider has fully recovered from his injuries, making an easy decision for Hart and Carmichael to include Tickle as part of their organisation‰Ûªs 2015 rider line-up.

‰ÛÏThis is an exciting time for everyone at RCH and I‰Ûªm really looking forward to 2015." Tickle admitted. "I had a great off-season, both on and off the bike. I‰Ûªm up to speed on the track and I‰Ûªm getting stronger every day.

"I feel more mentally and physically prepared than I have in years and to have Ken onboard is a testament to where this team is heading. We‰Ûªve got a lot of good stuff happening. Now it‰Ûªs time to get going and make the most of the opportunity.‰Û
