Kawasaki Team Green™ - THE PROGRAM THAT BUILDS CHAMPIONS

2017-08-31 16:35
Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A. (KMC) is sharing a candid video of what Kawasaki Team Green™ has to offer and why motocross riders of all ages want to ride Kawasaki motorcycles.

A tradition since 1982, Team Green was in full force this summer at the 36th Annual AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship with a full complement of technicians and support for all Kawasaki riders. On the track, motocross racing can be quite challenging as riders race to the checkered flag; it’s where motocross legends and former Kawasaki Team Green riders like, Jeremy McGrath, Ryan Villopoto, Ricky Carmichael and James Stewart were built. Off the track, motocross is about spending time with family and friends and enjoying the camaraderie of being part of a team. McGrath and Villopoto are just a couple of the legends featured in the video speaking highly of the Team Green program and playing a major role in their success. The video highlights proof that the program remains an important part of the rider’s lives, as McGrath and Villopoto have continued to show their support for the young riders and the Team Green program throughout their retired years. With that support, Kawasaki riders left the ranch with seven championships and a lifetime of memories.

As the year comes to a close, the Team Green staff with exceptional trackside support will be attending the Baja Brawl, TransWorld SLAM Festival, the Kawasaki Race of Champions and the Thor Winter Olympics, just to name a few.
