JOSH GREEN LEADS YAMAHA HOME AT AUSSIE ENDURO-X

Yamaha were out in force at the opening round of the Australian Enduro-X Nationals in Brisbane.

Active8 Yamaha’s Josh Green battled through a challenging night to finish in second place and heads to round two in New South Wales on February hoping to go that one place better…

“It was a tough night. My crash in the qualifying race was pretty big as I was trying to double up a through the log section and the front just ploughed into the last log and spat me over the bars. Luckily I was able to finish and get through to the main and the team was able to get the bike back into shape and get it to the start line for the main events.

“I figured out pretty quickly that mistakes in Enduro-X can punish you, so I tried to be smart out there in the finals and just focus on putting laps together. If you go balls out, it’s easy to fall or hurt yourself, and that’s not going to get it done in such a short championship.

“Thank you to the Active8 Yamaha team and the WR250F was perfect all night. We can now focus on round two and shoot for another podium in Sydney.”
