SBK 2009 Kawasaki factory Team

Kawasaki Motors Europe has announced that the Paul Bird Motorsport Team will be the official 2009 World Superbike Team.
Makoto Tamada and Broc Parkes will ride the World Superbike Kawasaki ZX-10R.
Steve Guttridge, Kawasaki’s European Race Planning Manager, said: “We had many proposals from teams who wanted to run our official effort next year, which underlines our strong belief in our brand, and fills us with confidence that the Ninja ZX-10R has the ability to compete at the front of the pack once again.

PBM was chosen to represent us officially because Paul Bird has proven that by putting together a knowledgeable and closely-knit crew, great results can be achieved by working together in a structured way.
”For PBM Team Owner, Paul Bird this is a fantastic opportunity to be recognised as an official team.

The team is ultra-motivated by this new direction!
