Jake Johnson Leaves Suzuki

May 15, 2009

Since 2005 Jake Johnson has been the number one rider on the Dave Burks American Suzuki supported Team winning two Single National Championship titles. Less than 2 weeks before the Springfield TT and Mile National Championship events, Jake jumps over to Mike Hackers SuperTrapp backed program.

Jake will be riding CRF450 Honda motorcycles in the Singles Series, with tuner Johnny Goad fielding XR750 Harley-Davidsons for the Twins Series.

Mike Hacker, Race Manager says, "Having a dog in this fight for the championship series for both the singles and twins is pretty incredible. Long time sponsors SuperTrapp is equally stocked about Jake joining the team. Jake is a hard and aggressive racer, he riders everything well and seeks strong results."

Jake will be carrying the #1 Plate in the Singles and #14 in the Twins.
