Video: Jonathan Rea lighting up his 600

Jonathan Rea may be a World Supersport rider now, but nobody told him that he shouldn’t be lighting up his Hannspree Ten Kate Honda at Phillip Island.

With the current crop of World Supersport bikes behaving like mini Superbikes Rea has been able to bring his committed all action riding style from BSB to the World Championship with spectacular results.

At the awesome turn one in Australia Rea looked like a Superbike rider hanging out the rear leaving big black lines and commented:

“Who says riding a Supersport bike is so different from a Superbike. Once the tyres go off in Supersport you have to ride it like a Superbike anyway.”
