JOSH HERRIN : MOTUL SUPERBIKE
Josh Herrin is one of the most popular riders lining up on the grid in the 2017 MotoAmerica Superbike Championship. He’s headed into the season with a bundle of momentum after clinching the title in the Superstock 1000 class in 2016, but he’s got his sights set on returning to winning ways in the Superbike class this year. Herrin won the AMA Superbike Championship in 2014 before MotoAmerica took over the series and he went on to compete in the Moto2 World Championship in 2015 with the Caterham Suter effort as Johann Zarco’s teammate. Herrin experienced some growing pains in the series and had a falling out with the team, but there’s no doubt that he’s still one of the most talented riders in the world with an American passport. >>
