Yamaha and Pro Taper Extend Relationship

Corona, CA. - Pro Taper is proud to announce that Factory Team Yamaha has chosen to extend their 16-year relationship through 2008. Factory Team Yamaha has used Pro Taper handlebars exclusively since 1991 when team rider Damon Bradshaw helped develop the original Pro Taper oversized handlebar.

New Team Yamaha riders Grant Langston, Josh Hill and Broc Hepler will be using Pro Taper equipment along with the newly formed L&M racing team of Chad Reed and Nathan Ramsey and the Factory Yamaha Supermoto team of Doug Henry and Mark Burkhart.

2007 will mark the 17th consecutive year that Factory Yamaha racing motorcycles will be equipped with Pro Taper products. Furthermore, all 2007 YZ and YZF motorcycles worldwide will feature Pro Taper handlebars as standard equipment.

"Our relationship with Team Yamaha is one we are very proud of," said Pro Taper’s Marketing Manger Erick "Big E” Bartoldus. Yamaha’s Keith McCarty knows the quality of our products and service, which he says makes his decision to stay with Pro Taper for all these years an easy one," added Bartoldus.
