Szoke gets U.S. Kawasaki ride

From Canadian Kawasaki Motors

Monster Energy Kawasaki's road race team will give Canadian Kawasaki rider Jordan Szoke a special opportunity to ride with the US factory team during the series finale at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca in Monterey, CA this weekend.

Szoke will be contesting the AMA Superbike class, filling in for Monster Energy Kawasaki team rider Roger Hayden. Hayden will miss the final event due to a shoulder injury sustained at the last round at Road Atlanta.

"I've raced many AMA events before, but this opportunity is special since it will be my first time under the US factory Kawasaki tent," said Szoke. "I'm really excited and I hope that I can make Kawasaki proud."
