EDMONDSON TAKES RM-Z450 TO E2 CLASS WIN AT LOSSIEMOUTH
Mar 2008
The second round of the British Enduro Championship took place at Lossiemouth in Scotland over the weekend and proved to be a very successful outing for the Relentless Suzuki Enduro Team.
Paul Edmondson piloted his brand new fuel injected Suzuki RM-Z450 to victory on both days in the E2 class and a first and second place in the overall standings, putting Edmondson back into the title chase.
With just a few days to prepare the new bike for the event, Fast Eddy was over the moon with the result. After preparing the machine with a lighting kit and softer springs the 450 never missed a beat. Edmondson hadn’t ridden such a large capacity bike for many years but took to it immediately as the results show.
Following a disappointing opening round of the BEC, Edmondson is right back on course in the series and looks set to go from strength to strength on the new bike.
Paul Edmondson commented, “I’m really pleased with the result this weekend. The bike was fantastic. Initially it was a culture shock going back to a big bike after so many years but the handling was spot on and the new fuel injection system really supplied the power when needed. I’m very impressed; I think that fuel injection is the way ahead after this performance.”
Paul continued, “The result has put me back in the running for the BEC, and after this weekend I feel I’ve got a good shout at putting in a string of good performances, especially with the Relentless Suzuki RMZ450 under me.”
