Top race bikes featured at Toronto Motorcycle Show
(TORONTO, ON / DECEMBER 9, 2010) Everyone wants to get into the Winners’ Circle, don’t they? Well thanks to Inside Motorcycles magazine, visitors to this weekend’s Toronto Motorcycle Show will have a chance to do just that.
The Inside Motorcycles Winners’ Circle will feature six race bikes from some of Canada’s top competitors. The hardware will represent a wide range of motorcycle racing disciplines and honour some of Canada’s top racers.
The Toronto Motorcycle Show opens Friday and runs through Sunday in the South Building of the Metro Toronto Convention Centre in the city’s downtown core.
“The Inside Motorcycles Winners’ Circle gives us an opportunity to recognize some of this country’s stars and give show visitors an appreciation for the diverse forms of competition in Canada,” said Inside Motorcycles editor John Hopkins. “I think enthusiasts will get a real eye-opener when they see some of these bikes up close and in the flesh.”
Highlighting the display will be the Honda CBR1000RR Brantford, Ont.’s Jordan Szoke rode to his fifth straight Parts Canada Superbike Championship, as well as the Gas Gas Raga 300 he used to clinch his second CMA National Trials title.
The Winners’ Circle will also include Steven Nickerson’s Honda CBR600RR, which the Hamilton racer rode to a third place finish in last summer’s Canadian National Amateur Sport Bike Championship and the Honda CRF450 of Burlington, Ont.’s Doug Beattie, who won his first CMA Canadian Dirt Track Championship.
Brian Wojnarowski of Pontypool, Ont. will show off one of the Yamaha dirt bikes he rode to a third place overall finish, and second in the E2 class in the Canadian Enduro Championship and rounding out the machinery on display will be the Concord, Ont.-based OTSFF race team’s Suzuki RM-Z450 motocross bike that rider Bobby Kiniry used to snatch the ‘King of Walton’ crown at the Walton TransCan Grand National, the most prestigious event in the Monster Energy Motocross Nationals.
