North West 200 News

RST, Arai and Motul will return as the official safety partners of the 2024 Briggs Equipment North West 200.

Continuing a partnership that began over 6 years ago, the motorcycling apparel, helmet and lubricant brands will provide vital safety support to this popular north coast event. All brands will also be present in the paddock, offering riders the iconic Race Service.

RST has been at the forefront of motorcycle apparel in the UK for over 30 years, creating high-quality clothing while maintaining incredible value. RST is also a pioneer, having been the first manufacturer to have its entire range CE certified and bringing one of the most affordable airbag systems to date into its range. The brand is trusted by professional riding athletes, amateurs, and everyday riders.

“RST is proud to renew our support for the NW200 as the Official Safety Partner.” Stuart Millington, Head of RST, said.

“We are look forward to a fantastic week of racing.”

Arai has spent over 70 years in pursuit of the safest possible motorcycle helmets. Handcrafted and designed with the principle of ‘glancing-off’ in mind – the reflection of impact energy away from the head – Arai make the smoothest, roundest helmets possible. The very same Arai Helmets worn on professional tracks can be bought by the public as Arai never compromises on safety, regardless of the rider.

“We are delighted to return to the NW200 as the Official Helmet Safety Partner.” Darren Thipthorpe, Arai Brand Manager, explained.

“We look forward to supporting competitors in the paddock with our premium FIM racing helmets and racing service.”

Founded in 1853, Motul now has an international footprint that specialises in the formulation, production, and distribution of high-performance lubricants for engines. The company is renowned for its capacity to innovate, producing state-of-the-art synthetic lubricants. The brand launched the very first synthetic multigrade lubricant- its flagship product, Motul 300V- in 1971.

You’ll see Motul as title sponsors across many racing events on the annual calendars as well as being present in every paddock.

“It’s great to be back as the Official Lubricant Partner of the NW200,” Richard Barrett, Senior Brand Manager at Motul UK, expressed.

“As always, we will be right at the heart of all the action!”

Mervyn Whyte of the Briggs Equipment North West 200 welcomes the continuing support from RST, Arai and Motul.

“We are delighted to have retained our connection with these three leading companies, ensuring we maintain the highest standards of safety for man and machine at the event.”

 

Arai, RST and Motul are distributed in the UK by MotoDirect Ltd.
