In a rain soaked endurance season opener, the Some Expense Spared SV650 delivered a Lightweight class victory. Not only did the Powersport Supply-backed team come out on top in a talented field of lightweight teams, SES also secured a 2nd place on the overall podium, ahead of 13 heavyweight and mediumweight bikes.

Trevor Standish started the race and quickly built a gap to the chasing teams. As the rain accumulated, the red flags came out, and SES found themselves several laps up on the rest of the lightweight field. Tyler Freeman took over and put in the team’s fastest overall lap time. A minor mechanical was repaired quickly, with only 60 seconds lost. Team principal Chris Bays hopped on the bike with an hour to go, but he only needed to do a few laps before the final red flag ended the race prematurely.

Bays was thrilled with his decision to make the younger riders do all of the laps in the rain. “It was almost a perfect endurance race in very tricky conditions. Trevor and Tyler were flying, and the Some Expense Spared crew executed flawlessly in the pits. I’m relieved that the beautiful new bodywork from Chris Parrish at Ghetto Customs is still in one piece after 4 hours in nasty weather!”

All three riders head immediately to Road Atlanta for MotoAmerica Twins Cup, with Standish riding for Pure Attitude Racing and Bays & Freeman on RBoM Suzukis. Some Expense Spared will be back for round 2 of the WERA/N2 Endurance series at Roebling Road Raceway on March 15th.
