Interview: Richard Harrison, Race Engineer, ATK Supermoto

There is a notable new player on the supermoto track this year -- actually a remarkable manufacturer with a tremendous winning tradition.

In this video podcast, we spoke with Race Engineer at the July 5th AMA Supermoto opener in Monroe Washington about ATK's supermoto racing endeavor.

They are running big 700cc two-strokes in the unlimited class. And they happen to be the only two-strokes out there. ATK also have some very interesting light-weight four-strokes whose fuel and timing settings can programmed on the fly, with a laptop. Richard Harrison shared a lot of interesting information about the ATK motorcycles in this interview.

@ivansmv - The opening scenes all include shots of the ATK bikes on the track. Of course, 2 1/2 years ago we were encoding in SD, so the bikes may not have been so obvious.

ATK makes motorcycles??? ATK the rocket people???

[wistech]

I like that the designer is bragging up the 505cc Cannondale bike at the end as capable and reliable . They may refer to it as an ATK but we know it was built 10 years ago in PA .Just a Timbo ported head and stroker kit.
