The #1 Team Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000 Superbikes of Mat Mladin get attention under the awning in the Road America paddock in June of 2006. Mladin was the '99-'01, '03-'05 and '09 AMA Superbike Champion before retiring at the end of the '09 season to his home and businesses in Australia. Further alongside sit Ben Spies' GSX-R600 Supersport bikes and at the far end of the tent his GSX-R1000 Superbikes as well. Spies took the AMA Superbike Championship in '06-'08 before moving on to World Superbikes in '09 where he won the championship, and for 2010 will be Colin Edwards team mate on the Yamah Tech 3 team in MotoGP. Mladin won both superbike events at Elkhart Lake this year with Spies following him home in both.

One of the team wrenches for the Yoshimura Suzuki works on Ben Spies' #1 GSX-R1000 primary bike in preparation for the weekend's superbike doubleheader at Road America in June of 2008.

Mladin went on the win his 7th and final superbike title in 2009 while Spies headed across the pond to contest the World Superbike Championship, and won the championship in his 'rookie' year.

Team Suzuki Racing released an updated and upGRADED website this week that includes a nice archive, photo and results section. Since there isn't much racing going on this weekend other than the British Superbike Series meet in Brands, this would be the time to do some bench and couch racing and catch up on what is happening in the world of Team Suzuki-other then Tommy Hayden bagging his first premier class win at Fontana last weekend, of course. See it here:
