Carmichael debuted his talents on the KTM machinery at the recent  Carole Nash MCN Scottish Motorcycle Show and will be performing at multiple rounds of the MCE British Superbike Championship.

The machines at his disposal will be the 690 Duke, the blistering new 1290 Super Duke R and a 250 EXC-F enduro bike.

Kevin said: “Since getting behind the bars of the 690 Duke I’m incredibly impressed with how light and balanced the bike is, and I’ve only just scratched the surface of its potential. As for the 1290, well, you never see those on two wheels anyway!”
