M&P Swansea Kawasaki ZX-10R BSB Race Replica to commemorate Shakey Byrne and Stuart Easton in
‘Dream Team’ BSB return
Paul Bird Motorsport have signalled their intentions of a winning return to the prestigious MCE Insurance British Superbike Championship with the signing of Shane ‘Shakey’ Byrne and Stuart Easton for the 2012 season.
Swansea Kawasaki BSB Race Replica on sale now at M&P. Shown above in temporary facility off Phoenix Way, Gorseinon and below outside the new M&P building, open Summer 2012.
Double British Superbike champion Byrne, from Sittingbourne, and former British Supersport champion Easton, from Hawick, will be aboard factory-specification Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R machines for the series as part of an ambitious plan which will see the team also field a CRT (Claiming Rules Team) rider in MotoGP.
Shane Byrne
“It’s a bit like coming home as this will be the third time I’ll have ridden for Paul and it’s quite funny as you spend five minutes with the team and it’s as if you’ve never been away!
The team always puts out competitive bikes and the Kawasaki will be a major threat I reckon. You know Paul wouldn’t be coming back to BSB if he didn’t think he could win it so I think we’ll have a real good shot at the title.”
Stuart Easton
“My injuries are healing well and everything should be sorted in time for me to start testing with the team as planned. It’s great to be back with PBM and I appreciate the support they have given me this year whilst I was out.
We have enjoyed so much success together in the past, I’m really looking forward to this challenge and if we can replicate that it will be great.”
Paul Bird, Team Owner
“When we decided to return to British Superbikes, signing both Shakey and Stuart was always the plan and I’m delighted they’ve come on board with us. We’ve won British championships as well as World championship races together and for me it’s my dream team.
We have proved that the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R is a fantastic bike and have won on it at BSB in 2010 so we know what we need to do. I promised Stuart a deal straight after his crash and he’ll be back to full fitness very soon and with Shakey keen to make up for missing out this year, we are ideally placed.”
Sales and Marketing Manager for Kawasaki Motors UK, Michael Johnstone
“Already the latest Ninja ZX-10R has proved to be highly competitive, this will take its race winning credentials further still. We wish the team and riders well for the coming season.”
The season starts at Brands Hatch over Easter with the team planning a test schedule in Spain during March.
