Yamaha Ramp-up Off Road Presence

Posted:

Yamaha Motor Australia have stepped up their involvement in the 2016 Australian Off Road Championship, starting on March 19, In Queensland.

With the introduction of five new off road models in the past 18 months, the WR250F, YZ250FX, YZ250X WR450F and the YZ450FX, Yamaha have injected plenty of life back into off road racing in recent times and have backed that up with the naming rights sponsorship of the prestigious championship.

‰ÛÏRacing is a major part of the Yamaha business and brand,‰Û

On track and Yamaha Motor Australia will be everywhere with riders competing in every championship class. The CDR Yamaha team will have Chris Hollis and Tom McCormack chasing outright and E2 honours on their WR450F‰Ûªs. Beau Ralston and Josh Green will represent the Active8 Yamaha team in E3 and E2 respectively while Australia‰Ûªs fastest female, Tayla Jones will take on the men in E1 (250cc).

Also Yamaha Motor Australia supported will be Riley Graham, Scott Keegan and Stefan Granquist in E1, as well as Jemma Wilson, Jesse Gardiner and Emilie Karlsson in the Women‰Ûªs class.

‰ÛÏWe feel we have put together a very strong contingent of riders to compete at the AORC and all of them will represent Yamaha well throughout these events,‰Û
