Relentless complete North West 200 shakedown

All four Relentless Suzuki representatives in BSB, BSS and road racing took to the Kirkistown circuit earlier this week with the main aim of preparing the road bikes for the North West 200, which kicks off in two weeks time.

Both Bruce Anstey and Cameron Donald completed over 70 laps of the Northern Irish circuit over two days of testing.

Relentless Team Principal Philip Neill said: “We have been coming to Kirkistown for pre North West 200 shakedown since 2001, and like previous years, it has again worked very well for us.

“We have good data for this circuit and I’m happy to report that all our bikes are working well for the North Coast event on May 17.

“Bruce and Cameron have made the most of the two-day test getting the opportunity to ride in both sunshine and wet conditions.”

Both British Superbike runner Michael Laverty and Supersport contender Ian Lowry joined the test with Lowry getting some vital wet set-up suggestions from wet-weather expert Anstey.

Neill added: “It was an added bonus to have both Michael and Ian here for the test, as we don’t often get the opportunity to put all four riders out on track together.”
