Tommy Hill’s Be Wiser Kawasaki team have unveiled their new colours for the 2015 MCE British Superbike Championship, running their ZX-10Rs in an unfamiliar colour scheme for the Green Machine.

Chris Walker and Danny Buchan will line up on the bikes, set up by new manager Hill and team owner Alan Greig. Hill, a talented graphic designer away from motorbike racing, is also responsible for the design as well as the management side of things.

Commenting after their unveiling onstage at Motorcycle Live, owner Greig commented: “This is a new chapter in my race team career, a daunting but very exciting one. Our title sponsors Be Wiser Insurance approached me back in November 2013 and asked if I would be interested in stepping up the next level, having run a Superstock team for the last five years.”
 
“It’s not every day this sort of offer comes your way so I just had to take on this challenge. Around about the same time I learnt that Tommy Hill was keen to start a new team so it made sense that I made contact with Tommy to see if there was any common ground in joining forces. Tommy had pretty much the same ideas as I did, mostly that if we can’t do it properly, we won’t do it at all.”
 
“It has been a long road since those initial discussions but here we are now with the Be Wiser Kawasaki Superbike Team. Plus Dickies as The Associate Sponsor and so many more new and exciting sponsors, as well as some long term sponsors of Tommy Hill have confirmed for next year. It has been a year in the making but we hope to make a big impact in the MCE British Superbike Championship in 2015 and beyond.”
