The unique power-to-weight formula is described by Remi Bizouard, 3x World FMX champion as: "It's extremely powerful, lightweight, and nimble. The bike geometry is robust and well balanced on trails and in the air. This creates new riding possibilities you couldn't do with a full-size bike."

QuotePirelli Tire and Dunlop Motorcycle Tires, in partnership with the American Superbike Racing Association (ASRA), are thrilled to announce a $5,000 bounty for any rider who breaks the outright motorcycle lap record at Blackhawk Farms Raceway during the ASRA Sprint Series event on June 7-8, 2025. This exciting incentive aims to ignite competition and showcase the performance of Pirelli and Dunlop tires on the challenging 1.95-mile, seven-turn circuit.
The current outright motorcycle lap record at Blackhawk Farms Raceway is 1:07.084, set by Jason Farrell in 2016 on a Pirelli-equipped Kawasaki ZX-10. To claim the $5,000 bounty, a rider must set a new absolute motorcycle track record during an official ASRA race session, using either Pirelli or Dunlop racing compound front and rear tires. The record must be verified by ASRA officials, and the bounty is limited to one award per race weekend, with the fastest lap time taking precedence if the record is broken multiple times.
