MOTOREX LUBRICATES RIZLA SUZUKI
Lubricant specialist Motorex has teamed up with Rizla Suzuki
for the 2007 British Superbike Championship and will develop
specific oil to maximise the performance of Chris Walker’s
and Cal Crutchlow’s GSX-R1000s.
Motorex, the Swiss family-owned motorcycle oil specialist,
is respected in global racing for its high-quality range of
motorcycle lubricants. It has committed to working with Rizla
Suzuki’s technical staff to develop oil for the Suzuki
GSX-R1000, giving the optimum mix of performance and protection.
Rizla Suzuki Team Manager Simon Buckmaster said: “Engine
oil is one of the most critical parts of any motorcycle or
Superbike. Good engine oil will allow maximum horsepower while
providing protection and reliability.
“Motorex is a partner to the all-conquering Suzuki
AMA Superbike team and is well known for its high-performance
lubricants. The oils it develops on the race track are the
same as the product it sells on the shelves and we are delighted
to be part of that process.
“We will start with the same oil that the AMA Suzuki
team uses and we will work with Motorex to find increased
horsepower and reliability. This partnership offers a real
tangible benefit to Rizla Suzuki – it will give us an
edge - and that’s vital when you are competing in the
most competitive national Superbike Championship in the world.”
As well as engine oil, Motorex offers the highest quality
lubricants for transmission, forks, air filter, cleaning,
chain, clutch, brake fluid, anti-freeze, grease and additives.
It is already acknowledged as a leader in the off-road and
motocross markets.
Motorex UK spokesman David Banks said: “Motorex is
a motorcycle oil specialist. The products it develops for
bikes are completely specific to the unique needs and demands
of motorcycles and are amongst the highest-performing and
most protective available.
“Motorex is turning its attention to the UK market
where performance and reliability are key demands from bike
owners. With the help of Rizla Suzuki we will develop our
lubricants for customers and grow our business through the
motorcycle dealer network across the country. We are also
hoping to enjoy quite a bit of success on the race track at
the same time.”
Motorex technical staff will join Rizla Suzuki during its
pre-season test programme on February 7-8th at Calafat in
Spain.
The British Superbike Championship starts on Bank Holiday
Monday, April 9th at Brands Hatch in Kent.
