Team Honda announces 2007 motocross roster

Torrance, California: American Honda is pleased to officially announce its
lineup of factory motocross race team members for 2007.


      The roster begins in championship form with Davi Milsaps, the 2006

      Eastern Regional Supercross Lites Champion. In 2007, Milsaps will

      ride a CRF450R in both the Supercross and outdoor motocross series.

      Joining him in both classes will be the accomplished Red Rider Andrew

      Short. Short will also ride a CRF450R, but unfortunately he will miss

      the first portion of the Supercross season as he recovers from knee

      surgery.



      The 2007 season also sees Tommy Hahn moving onto the Team Honda squad

      after spending three seasons on the Honda-supported Factory

      Connection Racing Team. Hahn will compete in Supercross Lites (West

      Region) and Motocross Lites.



      Eight-time AMA Supercross/motocross champion and Hall of Fame rider

      Jeremy McGrath returns to Team Honda in 2007, where he continues to

      lend his considerable expertise to the team’s ongoing testing and

      development work, and he will also once again serve as a racing

      mentor to the younger riders.



      With a compelling roster of superb athletes, you can bet the Honda

      Red Riders will be at the front of the pack all year long. The whole

      Honda team will be on hand at the 2007 Supercross season opener at

      Anaheim signing autographs and meeting the Honda race team fans.
