From the Track to Glory: Kevin Schwantz, Racing's Timeless Icon

American-born Kevin Schwantz was a competitive motorcycle road racer before his retirement in 1964. In the 1993 FIM Road Racing World Championship, he won the world championship.

At the age of four, Schwantz, whose parents had a motorbike store, began riding. Following in the footsteps of his father and uncle, Darryl Hurst (the original 34), he started his competitive career as a trials rider. From trials, he advanced to motocross in his teens and rose to the top of the local MX ranks. He decided to give up motocross after a catastrophic collision during the 1983 Houston Supercross qualification round.

He was allowed to test ride for the Yoshimura Suzuki Superbike team at the end of the 1984 season, and the team quickly signed the Texan to a contract. He won both legs of the 1985 Willow Springs AMA Superbike National, his maiden race with Yoshimura. Despite only participating in half of the events, he placed eighth overall in the championship.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What safety gear should I wear when riding?
When riding, it’s important to wear proper safety gear. A certified helmet is a must, as it protects your head in case of a fall. Additionally, wearing a leather or textile jacket helps guard against road rash. Don’t forget gloves! They protect your hands and improve grip on the handlebars. Lastly, wearing sturdy boots keeps your feet safe from injury. Proper gear can make a big difference in your safety when riding.
How can I maintain my motorcycle?
Maintaining your motorcycle is very important for safe riding. Start by regularly checking the oil level and changing the oil as needed. Keep the tires properly inflated and check for any wear. It's also good to clean and adjust the chain. Inspect the brakes to make sure they're working well and replace the brake pads if necessary. Regularly looking after your motorcycle helps it perform better and last longer. Don't forget to consult a professional if you're unsure about anything!
What should I do if my motorcycle breaks down?
If your motorcycle breaks down, try to stay calm. First, find a safe location away from traffic. If you can, check basic issues like fuel level or a dead battery. If it’s a flat tire or other serious issue, you might need professional help. Make sure to call for roadside assistance if you can’t fix it yourself. Always carry a phone and know contact details for help. It’s best to plan ahead to avoid breakdowns in the first place!
Can beginners ride a motorcycle?
Yes, beginners can definitely ride a motorcycle! It’s best to start with a smaller, lighter bike as they are easier to handle. Take a motorcycle safety course if you can; this will teach you the basics and important skills. Make sure to practice in a safe area before venturing into traffic. Always remember to wear your protective gear to stay safe. With patience and practice, anyone can learn to ride!
What should I know before buying a motorcycle?
Before buying a motorcycle, think about how you plan to use it. Will you ride for fun or daily commuting? Research different types of bikes to find one that fits your needs. Check your budget, as costs can vary widely. Always take a test ride to see how it feels. Finally, consider insurance costs and safety features. Taking your time can help you make a smart choice when purchasing your motorcycle!

I got my new motorbike leather suit with fast delivery and providing the all features in this suit, excellent design and comfortable genuine leather having all internal & external protectors including Knee, Shoulder, Elbows and Back. Excellent performance of outer knee sliders. I like this suit very much due to good design and good quality and specially for full ventilated chest to keep the biker cool while riding. this feature is optional so i added. Good seller, I highly recommend Leather Collection.

This vest was very good quality and, as usual, shipped and delivered at the speed of light! I had to send it back though, my hubby is a BIG guy-I ordered a 4 XL and this type of vest was small even with the side rawhide hoops loosened. If you are a normal sized guy-this a a terrific vest that will last you many years of riding.
