This move represents a significant increase in existing sponsorship. Ron Ayers Motorsports is the leading discount online OEM parts vender in the country and one of the biggest motorcycle dealers in North Carolina. “Ron Ayers Motorsports is a huge four line dealer and we could have used products from any of the four major manufactures, but we chose to continue to use Suzuki products because they are the best, especially the GSX-R1000″ said team owner Kevin Hunt. “We are extremely happy to have John and Matt with the team, both have a level of commitment and talent that is second to none!” “KWS Motorsports is the one of the best performance shops in the country” said Ron Ayers Motorsports Jimmy Stallings. “KWS has proven themselves to posses the experience and technology to build and maintain competitive machines at a professional level and they are the only company we would trust to carry the Ron Ayers Motorsports name in competition” The team will again have two riders.
