Focused Events unveil the "Ultimate Trackday Demo"

Focused Events have unveiled an ambitious track day scheme - bikers can test ride the latest 2010 Supersport models at a circuit of their choice.

Participants can choose a Ducati 848, Suzuki GSX-R600, Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R or Yamaha YZF-R6 and as an incentive, Ducati and Kawasaki will give a full refund of the hire costs to any rider who then buys a 2010 machine (offer is for a limited time only).

The motorcycles will be fitted with race-day bodywork and high performance rubber; but most importantly will still have their original setup so that riders really are getting a 'ride before you buy' experience. However, for the ultimate test ride, you can choose to ride two machines head-to-head, before making deciding to buy. Focused Events have worked with all the major manufacturers to obtain as many machines as possible, giving the best choice to track day riders. Manufacturers and distributors have supported the scheme as it gives bikers a rare opportunity to test ride the latest models in a focused and exciting race circuit environment.
