Suzuki continues to support U.S. motocross and road racers

BREA, CA (December 7, 2011) - American Suzuki Motor Corporation (ASMC) is proud to announce the allocation of more than $4.2 million in contingency for the 2012 Motocross and Road Race seasons in the United States. For nearly three decades, ASMC has provided extensive contingency support to amateur and pro racers alike, and the 2012 season will be no different. Suzuki continues to reward racers who purchase the RM/RM-Z and GSX-R product lines and, in turn, support Suzuki dealers.

"Suzuki is proud to continue carrying on this long and significant tradition of providing support to our most dedicated racers," said Pat Alexander, ASMC's amateur support manager. "We are excited about seeing Suzuki riders on top of the podiums around the country, in both Motocross and Road Racing. I have been fortunate enough to see some of the world's greatest racing talent competing for Suzuki contingency dollars in the past, and I look forward to enjoying that privilege again in the very near future."

Over the course of the 2012 season, ASMC will be offering in excess of $4.2 million of contingency to racers who purchase 2011 or 2012 RM85/85L, RM-Z250, RM-Z450, GSX-R600, GSX-R750 or GSX-R1000 models.
