			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Belgian MX 1 star already tested his new ride for 2009 world championship assault. Kevin who was second in 2007 MX1 season and troubled with injuries in 2008 was extremely positive at his first outing on Mantova MX track in northern Italy. ‘The CRF 450 is already fast and with Akrapovic exhaust, a good base for future fine tuning. I was also very satisfied with exhaust characteristics and specially, with reasonably quiet noise output’, claimed Kevin, who will now continue with further testing with Honda Martin Racing Team.]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[2009 Yamaha WSB riders Ben Spies and Tom Sykes enjoyed a successful two day test at Portimao with their new team. Both riders used the time to develop the all-new Akrapovic equipped 2009 Yamaha YZF-R1 race bike. The new 998cc bike, featuring a high tech powerplant closely linked to the M1 MOTOGP bike, is currently at the very beginning of its development for the 2009 WSB season and is still relatively close to production specifications. However Ben Spies was able to consistently lapping times on 1.44s, come within two tenths of the race lap record set by Troy Bayliss during the inaugural race weekend two days previously. ]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[There was an extra guest amongst the media journalists present for the 2008 Factory Media Test at the Parkalgar circuit in Portimao. Former Formula 1 star and seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher was invited to join the invited journalists testing out the 2008 Yamaha WSB YZF-R1, equipped with Akrapovič exhausts, of Noriyuki Haga and Troy Corser. The Yamaha Motor Italia Team were very impressed with his technical communication as he came in to debrief. His ability to communicate the feedback from the bike to help modify his personal set up was reported to be excellent. He also showed a keen understanding of the individual bike components and their effects on the ride. He was then able to make small changes with the crew to develop and improve his feel for the bikes through the session.<br /><br />Source: <link http://www.yamaha-racing.com _blank - "Yamaha">Yamaha</link>]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[BMW riders Troy Corser and Ruben Xaus took their first steps on the all-new racer S1000RR World Superbike, equipped with Akrapovič Exhaust at Valencia. Troy Corser said about the test &quot;I am a bit surprised really because I didn't think I would feel as comfortable on the bike as I did. The base is very good and although there is a lot of work to be done, I feel very positive about our prospects. The communication is very good and there have been no problems except that I got hit by a bird towards the end of the test. It happened between turn one and two and it hit me just under the throat, above my chest protector, and it was a pretty heavy hit. It ruined my lap and it didn't do the bird any good either!&quot; Ruben Xaus, riding at his home circuit, said on the final day &quot;What I can say is that I am very happy with the bike - how it handles, how it turns and its power. It is very stable at speed and it is not a physical bike to ride and already I'm pretty comfortable on it.&quot;<br /><br />Source: <link http://www.worldsbk.com _blank - "WSBK offical web site">WSBK official web site</link>]]></content:encoded>
