Joel Balchin re-signs with Suzuki for 2008

 
 

High-flying Australian freestyle motocross star Joel Balchin has re-signing with Suzuki Motorcycles again for 2008.
Balchin will continue to wow crowds locally and globally aboard a Suzuki RM250 as part of numerous events and demonstrations, including the 2 Wheel Moto Mayhem Motorcycle Games, in which Balchin finished fourth in Melbourne last weekend.

Balchin's fourth year aboard a Suzuki, 2008 looks set to be a busy one with Crusty Demons tours of the United Kingdom and Australia already on the schedule for the first quarter.

Balchin will continue to utilise the expertise of Jay Foreman Racing; the team behind the Australian factory Team Shift Motul Suzuki off-road outfit will prepare his RM250.

"I'm really looking forward to 2008 and continuing my partnership with Suzuki," Balchin said.

"It's going to be a full on year. We've got some Crusty Demons shows in the U.K. in January, before a tour of Australian regional centres which will be huge; the Aussie crowds are always awesome.

"The Suzuki RM250 is a great all-round package for freestyle motocross. I love the power of the engine; four-strokes are the direction things are going in for racing, but two-strokes and their low-end power are perfect for what we do.

"Jay Foreman helps me a lot with the preparation of the bike and his knowledge of suspension, which is crucial in freestyle motocross, is second to none - it's great to have him involved." Balchin is sponsored by Suzuki, Shift, Motul, Tag Metals, Pro Circuit, Alpinestars, Utopia Optics, Balls Deep Boxers, Pod MX, Sikspak and Globe. This story is from www.fullnoise.com.au
