Press Release

BTOSports.com / Butler Brothers MX signs Michael Byrne





The
BTOSports.com / BBMX / Palmetto Suzuki race team is pleased to announce their
acquisition of Motocross/Supercross Veteran Michael Byrne for the
2011 & 2012 Supercross & Motocross seasons. “Words can’t
express the level of excitement we have regarding this right now!” said BTO
Sports owner Vince Arimitsu. “Michael Byrne is a big and exciting addition
to our team, and we are looking forward to putting in our best season yet!”



Michael
Byrne has been racing professionally in the USA since 2001, when he started
racing under MX Legend Jeff Emig’s Kawasaki team. Since then, he has proven to
be a top dog in the sport, with many podium finishes and legendary battles.
Byrne has jumped around from some pretty big name teams over the years, such
as: Amsoil Honda, Factory Chevy Trucks Kawasaki and Factory Rockstar Makita
Suzuki.



"Michael
is where we want to be with our race team for the future. We are putting
all our focus into the premier 450 class this season and Byrner was the perfect
rider for us. He lives in Tampa, FL now which is where the team is based
out of and we will be able to get a lot of testing time in with both Michael
and veteran team rider Jason Thomas.  Both BBMX and Michael have the same
goals for 2011 and 2012 and we look forward to achieving them together",
says BBMX team owner Forrest Butler.
