We were recently delighted to welcome former World Superbike Champion James Toseland to Hunts. Currently enjoying great success with the Winston Ten Kate Honda Racing team in WSB, James had been asked to take part in a photoshoot for an upcoming feature in 'Two Wheels Only' magazine and needed a suitable bike to ride. We were happy to oblige and managing director John Brown promptly handed over the keys to his own Fireblade RR6 demonstator.
Accompanied by Two Wheels Only editor Rob 'Bertie' Simmonds, James set off for a run into the Cheshire countryside on a beautiful Thursday morning in early July. Escorting the group and in charge of finding suitable locations for the shoot was our good friend Peter 'Pan' Wardle on one of our Varadero XLV1000's. Mark Spall and Chris McKee also came along on their new RR6 'Blades to take part in the photoshoot.
Sadly the morning came to an end all too soon as James had to leave for trip to Goodwood where he was due to appear on stage with his band 'Crash' later that night.
Look out for the feature in Two Wheels Only magazine in the near future. In the meantime, here are a few memories from the day:
