Shift MX (SHIFT) is proud to be partnering with Team Suzuki World MXGP for MXGP 2016. MXGP riders, Ben Townley and Kevin Strijbos will be racing in the upcoming season of FIM World Motocross Championship.

This collaboration marks the start of a new and exciting era as SHIFT engages in its first ever Team partnership in World Motocross Championship. With Stefan Everts, the legendary multi-time World Champion, leading the team as General Manager, Team Suzuki is being groomed for a dominating position in MXGP:  

“I’m very honored to have SHIFT as a team partner for 2016. SHIFT is different than the other brands. They’re heading in a different direction and have a unique strategy. That’s something I find within myself and what I also try to do. I’m also trying to be different and I want to stand out from the big bunch. I believe that this similarity between us will lead to a great partnership.” - Stefan Everts, General Manager, Team Suzuki World MXGP.

Philippe Casadesus, SHIFT's Brand Manager remarked that “this partnership is perfectly synchronized with a new era for our two organizations. We have great ambition for the Shift MX brand -based on a strong 5 years plan and the launch of many new products- as well as Suzuki GRP and its new management set up. No doubt that our common ambitions will be a great catalyst for strong results.” 

Catch the infamous and every stylish Ben Townley, who turned a lot of heads around at Ernée - MXON 2015 last september, along with teammate Kevin Strijbos, who has proved himself over the past years to be a force to reckon with, sporting their all new SHIFT MX racewear at the first round of World Motocross Championship in Qatar on 26/02/2016.
