"The few laps I managed last week were great as I got time to sleep on things and get ready for this test, the bike feels great albeit quite different from my las👍t Superbike.

"I know I have to adapt to the bike and with a fre🎐e track and good weather I feel I have made big steps. No time left now though we are jumping straight in at Cadwell and I can't wait!"

Motorpoint Yamaha heaꦰd into the latter rounds of the 2011 season with an entirely new rider line-up after James Westmoreland was also released from his contract. No announcement on a second rider to join Bridewell has been made.
