Welcomes Stewart and Chisholm to Yamahas Championship
Family |
| Yamaha Motor Corporation
is most pleased and excited to welcome James Stewart and Kyle
Chisholm to the Yamaha Championship Family for the 2009 season
as part of the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians/L&M
Team. |
| A six time AMA MX/SX
Champion James ba level of excitement to everything he does
this unrivaled in the world of Motocross and Supercross. With
tremendous character and charisma on and off the track Stewart
could easily be compared to Yamahas own 8 time Road
Racing World Champion Valentino Rossi. Considered to be one
of the best to ever throw a leg over a motorcycle, James comes
off a perfect season and has high expectations for his new
bike and team for the 2009 season. |
When I decided
I was ready for a change I definitely knew I wanted to ride
a Yamaha, said James Stewart. I called San Manuel
Band of Mission Indians/L&M Team Owner Larry Brooks and
was really happy he was able to make it all happen.
Teammate and fellow Florida native, Kyle Chisholm was a top
amateur just a few years ago and at 6 tall is the right
size to make his pro debut in the Supercross Class on a YZ450F.
I know I face a tough challenge, but Im really
excited about riding a YZ450F and proving myself in the Supercross
class, said new team member Kyle Chisholm. |
|
| Our relationship with the San Manuel
Band of Mission Indians/L&M Team has been great, said
Racing Division manager Keith McCarty. With a Supercross Championship
in 2008 and the addition of James and Kyle for 2009, were
sure it will be an exciting season. |
| Both Stewart and Chisholm will be racing
Supercross on the new Yamaha YZ450F. |
