Video: James Rispoli prepares for X-Games

Pirelli National Superstock 1000 racer James Rispoli is currently preparing to make his X-Games debut in Minneapolis, and has sent MCN some video footage of his testing ahead of this evening’s flat-track racing.

The Quattro Plant FS-3 Kawasaki and Team Green rider was a runner-up Pro Flattracker before making his move to the UK to compete in the MCE British Superbike series and support classes.

He’s riding a custom-framed Kawasaki 650 twin for the Alan Rodenborn Racing Unlimited Team.

“I am stoked to be getting involved in the X-Games for the first time to race flattrack”, he said. “It is such a new big event and while I race overseas now in the UK it’s going to be awesome to get back and compete in front of the home fans. I am really grateful for the invite and to be the first British Superbike rider to line up at this event is fantastic for me, all our sponsors and of course my fans from around the world.”
