BIKE HIRE

Take the opportunity to have a go at racing on a BEARS hire bike, a 2023 KTM RC390 or 2022 KTM Duke 390. 

Have a go at racing on the BEARS hire bike - KTM RC390 or KTM Duke 390

Have a go at racing! The BEARS club has a 2023 KTM RC390 and a 2022 KTM Duke 390 race bikes available for any rider wanting to give our sport a go. The objective is to introduce more riders to the sport and help novices make the step up to competitive racing. The bikes will be available at our club racing rounds. You will need to be a confident road rider. You DO NOT need a motorcycle road licence. The Club has a spare back protector and chest protector you can borrow for the day if required.

You will be expected to look after the bike, and check the tyre pressures etc. There are plenty of people on hand to provide helpful advice. The bike will be transported to and from the track for you and ready to go when you get there. WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK!

For $150 (which covers entry and MNZ licence for the day),  you get to ride a race prepped bike, gas included - ready to go. For competent riders we recommend you select for your entry the "Lightweight (F4)" and "Superstock Limited" classes.

If you want to give it a go you must apply in advance by contacting Glenn Corson on 027 435 0406 or email info@bearsracing.nz. See here for further racing preparation > https://www.bearsracing.nz/race-preparation-info​ ​
