Press Release

Ken De Dycker joins LS Motors Honda for 2011

LS
Motors-Honda is pleased to confirm that Ken De Dycker will join the
team for the 2011 MX1 World Championship. The tall Belgian (26) has
been a consistent force in the top-five of the MX1 World Championship
since 2006.

Ken has five GP’s and national titles in Germany and
Great-Britain to his tally. He won this year’s German GP in
Teutschenthal in superb style and is currently lying 7th in the World
Championship standings, despite having to sit out two GP’s due to
injury. For 2011 he will become part of the officially supported LS
Motors Honda squad, aboard the CRF450R.

Ken De Dycker “It’s cool
to sign with LS Motors-Honda, and I’m absolutely thrilled about next
season. I couldn’t wish for a better motivation than the confidence of
Steven Lettani and Honda in spite of the problems I had this year. To
be back on a red bike feels great as well. I have been on a Honda for
most of my career and have always done well on them. That explains one
side of the feeling of me coming home. The other is the fact to be
working with a familial team that is close to my home and yet very
professional. Combined with the support of Honda Europe I believe that
I have all tools at my disposition to make the next step in my career.”

Steven
Lettani (LS Motors Honda Team Owner): “We’re delighted that Ken will
join the LS Motors family for next season. We believe that he will be a
great fit with the team and that he has a huge potential that remains
to be untapped. Ken’s raw speed can only be compared to a handful of
riders in the world. Now is the time to make that talent shine.”

Roger
Harvey (Off-road Racing Manager, Honda Motor Europe): “It is fantastic
news to have Ken back on Honda with the officially supported LS Motors
Honda team. I am confident that he will produce great things next year.
Ken’s talent is well known and respected and the LS Motors guys
unquestionably know how to provide their riders with the best possible
machinery.”
