Connor Behan 2010 Junior Superstock

 

 

Along with Maxton Engineering and help from Bristol Kawasaki we will be helping Connor Behan contend in this years Metzler Superstock 600 championship. Unfortunatly this year got off to a very late start with the delivery of a brand new 2010 Kawasaki ZX6R only one month before the first round at brands hatch this coupled with delays in parts and a very limited budget the bike was not evern fully completed the night before leaving for brands. The bike had done less than 300 miles from new all on the dyno so any advantage of pre testing went completly out of the window. Connor basicly had to turn up at brands hatch on a untested / unpainted bike and with a huge hurdle of getting used to riding a 600 superstock bike moving up from the 125 2 strokes he has raced previously. With all this in mind Connor got out at brands and eventualy qualified in the shoot out, unfortunatly it was just to much to ask for in the race and he had to eventualy pull in. We now had a small window of time to get some paint on the bike try and get some spares together and get the bike dialed in, the test day at oulton saw Connor send his times down from 1.49 secs to regular 1.45s in trackday traffic the time on the bike now is starting show as the wirral 100 race the following day on the saturday he consistantly rode round in mid 1.44s and fineshing 4th in a very fast formular 600 race on a stock bike. The next meeting will be Thruxton on the 18th april i will update this page as results become available.
