LeoVince Continues With CAS Honda in 2010

27th January

CAS Honda is pleased to announce that it will continue its long-term partnership with LeoVince for the provision of performance silencers, used to help power the team’s CRF450R race machines, for its assault on the British and World MX1 Championships this season.

Following a six-year partnership with the team, which is entering its 12th season of racing, LeoVince has confirmed that it will be continuing its commitment to the CAS Honda squad in both the domestic and World motocross series.

The LeoVince brand is owned by the Sito Group, a family run business based in Italy, which has been manufacturing products for motorcycles for more than 50 years. LeoVince produces silencers for two and four-stroke engines, and specialises in performance exhausts, as used on the CAS Honda CRF450R race machines.

LeoVince has been developing products and with its years of experience designing pipes, especially using titanium and carbon materials, the company has enjoyed many successes in the MotoGP, Superbike, Motocross, Enduro and Supermoto World Championships.

CAS Honda, who will field Gareth Swanepoel and Evgeny Bobryshev this season, is looking forward to maximising its partnership with the silencer manufacturers. The team will be responsible for providing LeoVince with valuable feedback of its development and performance products over the course of the year, which helps the brand’s designers further improve exhausts for the consumer market.

CAS Honda is currently testing in South Africa, and will return in time for the opening round of the British Championship at the Little Silver Track in Exeter at the end of February.

“We are extremely pleased to be continuing our long-term partnership with LeoVince, as their products and support form an important part of our overall race package. We will continue working together to develop LeoVince products using our bike and riders, and our extensive pre-season testing programme is currently taking place in South Africa. We are looking forward to this season, and the use of quality products such as those we are supplied by LeoVince, who are always developing their systems to further improve performance, which certainly makes our job easier. I am pleased we will continue to be associated with a company with so much experience in the sport in providing quality products.”

Fabio Mozzone: Sito Gruppo Industriale S.p.A Marketing Manager

“LeoVince has been a partner of the CAS Honda team since 2004. We have together enjoyed many exciting seasons and challenging times together, and we are looking forward to continuing our partnership in 2010. The technical commitment from CAS Honda’s staff has been always been of high quality, allowing us to develop our product even further. We know that in 2010 we will deal with a very heated championship, but we certainly start as sure protagonists, at the top of the category. Our commitment and experience here at LeoVince will be at the team’s disposal for us to supply an exhaust system at the highest quality to help their campaign.”
