I’ve accumulated a lot of experience and knowledge over the years working for Kawasaki and this is a great opportunity to share some of that with a young rider who is eager to see how far she can go in racing. We just finished up our first test on the 636 and I am truly impressed with Dani’s work ethic and passion.
