BREA, Calif. (Feb. 10, 2009) - American Suzuki Motor Corporation today announced its

"American Suzuki's support of amateur motocross racing is a vital component of our overall
racing activity and a special showcase of our RM product lineup," said Pat Alexander, Sports
Promotions Manager for American Suzuki's motorcycle division. "Suzuki builds highly
competitive motorcycles and ATVs, and our support of racing shows enthusiasts just how
competitive they can be on the racetrack with Suzuki products."
