S&S to Support Royal Enfield 'Build, Train, Race' Programs
S&S Cycle is to continue its technical partnership with Milwaukee based Royal Enfield North America, collaborating on projects including the Build Train Race (BTR) road racing and flat track programs.
In recent years, Royal Enfield and S&S Cycle established a relationship in developing Royal Enfield's popular 650 cc parallel twins, the FT411 and Royal Enfield's AFT program. S&S Cycle also manufactures multiple aftermarket parts and accessories for Royal Enfield motorcycles.
This year, S&S Cycle will create parts to assist with the BTR road racing program, including exhausts, footpegs and triple clamps. S&S Cycle will also help to develop a Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 road racing package and consult on future racing opportunities in the Americas.
"Royal Enfield is a great partner for S&S Cycle and allows us to reach a new audience of riders," said Paul Langley, president of S&S Cycle. "The programs that Royal Enfield has developed have not only provided female motorcyclists the opportunity to get involved in racing, but afforded us the chance to develop parts and accessories for the Royal Enfield Twins platform. Royal Enfield is one of the global leaders in motorcycle production, and getting access to the brand helps S&S Cycle as we look to expand our business."
After the successful debut of the flat track Build Train Race program, Royal Enfield is looking to road racing as the program continues to evolve. Seven female motorcyclists were recently announced to build, train and race with road racing prepared Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 motorcycles.
