Over the last several years, Suzuki has been utilizing the state of the art technology derived from MotoGP racing in the development of new motorcycles. The benefits now expand well beyond engine and chassis refinements to the development of a new high-performance motorcycle oil line: ECSTAR Suzuki Genuine Oil.

 

Travis Wyman continued his domination of the MotoAmerica Steel Commander Stock 1000 field during Qualifying One Friday afternoon at Circuit of The Americas, in Austin, Texas. In spite of the 106-degree F heat, Wyman lapped the 3.4-mile course in just 2:12.707 on his Travis Wyman Racing BMW M 1000 RR to claim provisional pole position.

Hayden Gillim was the best of the rest with a time of 2:13.877 on his Disrupt Racing Suzuki GSX-R1000R.

Diego Perez was third-fastest with a 2:14.065 on his PDR Motorsports Kawasaki ZX-10R.

Championship point leader Ezra Beaubier struggled in the session and could only manage a seventh-quickest 2:15.540 on his Orange Cat Racing BMW M 1000 RR.
