  • Tag Metals Signs a 3rd Rider to the Factory8 Program
Valencia, CA - Shawn Norfolk, Director of Marketing said, “We are happy to announce the signing of Michael Leib to the Tag Metals Factory8 race team. MJ is an awesome kid. He struggled through injuries last year but he’s back stronger than ever and we believe in him! MJ is the 3rd rider to sign on the Factory8 program. He joins Taylor Futrell and Kyle Engle on the team and we’re really happy to have him. Michael’s current sponsors include Rocket Exhaust and Motors, Factory Connection, Asterisk, Shoei, Spy, No Fear, Gaerne, SIXSIXONE, Filtron, Sunline, Dunlop, AC Racing, R-Tech Racing Fuels, 180 Decal, Lightspeed, On Track, Kal-Gard, IMS, Excel, RK, Hinson, Motion Pro, Vitamin Water, Moto XXX, R&D Racing, MX Trainer.com, and Seal Savers.”

Michael ‘MJ” Leib said, “I'm super pumped to be part of this exclusive team. I have been running TAG bars and sprockets since I was on 65's and the new stuff is the best product I’ve ever used. I look forward to putting TAG on the podium in 2009.”

Shawn also said, “We’ve got FIVE more spots on the team and we plan on having the final roster within the next few weeks. Stay tuned.”
