Yoshimura to Sponsor
Harold Goodman
Chino, Calif. - May 13, 2009 - Yoshimura
announced today the sponsorship of 2008 ATVA
Extreme Dirt Track Pro Champion Harold
"Bumblebee" Goodman with exhaust pipes and
various Yoshimura performance products.
Goodman will not only ride his Honda TRX450R in
the 2009 Extreme Dirt Track Series, but also in
the AMA Pro ATV Motocross Championship Race
Series as well.
The Romulus, Michigan native began racing in
1986 and went Pro in 1995. He has been Champion
of the Extreme Dirt Track Pro Class for the last
two years and has consistently placed in the Top
10 in the motocross series. In addition, Goodman
was voted the ATVA Athlete of the Year for 2008.
"We are excited to have Harold running Yoshimura
products for the 2009 season," Yoshimura's VP of
Marketing Brant Russell explained. "Yoshimura
has been and will remain committed to ATV racing
and this partnership with Harold Goodman is
important to us. Harold works really hard and is
a winner. In addition, Harold, his family, and
his entire program are first rate. It's a
pleasure to be associated with his efforts. It's
a great chance for us to help show off our Honda
products as well."
Yoshimura R&D development engineer Sean
Gutierrez agreed, "We are the official sponsor
of the Honda Supercross/Motocross two-wheel
team, and have used some of what we have learned
there for our quad products. Harold is great
test rider as well as racer and his input will
help develop our Honda ATV pipes even further
going forward."
Goodman is also looking forward to the
relationship: "It's great to be working with
Yoshimura. Their exhaust system provides great
horsepower and is nice and quiet so it passes
the sound requirements at the Motocross
Nationals."
Yoshimura products are available at your local
dealer. For race support, contact Jeremiah Jones
