Motorcycle Superstore Suzuki’s Kyle Cunningham will transition to the 450 staring this weekend at Round 8 of Monster Energy Supercross in Atlanta.

Cunningham, currently ninth in 250SX West Region points, is expected to ride most of the East Coast rounds on a 450. The team is currently without rookie Josh Osby, who is expected to miss a majority of the 250SX East Region due to a pre-season practice crash.

“I’ve ridden the RM-Z450 in the past and I’m really loving the bike right now,” Cunningham said. “I loved that bike last year when I raced it in the outdoors. I’m just looking forward to the opportunity that MotorcycleSuperstore.com/Suzuki put together for me for the coming weeks.”
