KTM
and Husaberg Partner with SuperB

The
FMF/KTM Factory Racing Team and Husaberg Factory Racing Team are
excited to announce a new partnership with SuperB that will extend
throughout the remainder of the 2011 racing season.

SuperB
introduced a revolutionary new battery type, specifically designed
for motorcycles, that replaces the existing lead/acid battery with a
lithium-ion technology. The SuperB battery offers many advantages
over conventional batteries including, lighter weight, faster charge
time, more compact design, and a longer service life.

The
company was founded in 2007 by Mr. M.H. Doornekamp, an enduro rider
from Holland. Upset over the lifetime of his four-stroke
battery-life, he began a quest to engineer a more reliable battery.
Being an engineer himself, he developed a new lithium-ion
light-weight battery for use in motorsport racing.

FMF/KTM
and Husaberg Factory Team Manager, Antti Kallonen, commented, “I’m
pleased to partner with SuperB for the 2011 racing season. It is
important in off-road racing to have a strong and reliable battery
that guarantees the bike will start every time you hit the button.
Many of our series involve a dead engine start where it is crucial to
have a good battery to get the jump you need. SuperB helps our
FMF/KTM and Husaberg motorcycles get off the line the fastest each
time. Having SuperB batteries on all our electric start 4-stroke
KTM’s and Husaberg’s is a big advantage and a peace of mind for
our riders.”

Doornekamp
is equally excited about the partnership with the FMF/KTM and
Husaberg Racing Teams. “Our company is elated to partner with KTM
and Husaberg, both leading brands in the off-road market. After years
of testing our batteries in the Dakar Rally, motocross and multiple
enduro series, we are proud that SuperB can be part of the world’s
best off-road teams.”
