VP RACING FUELS DEVELOPS NEW TRIALS FUEL FOR MOTORCYCLES
SAN ANTONIO , TX ( MARCH 9 , 2021 )
VP Racing Fuels , Inc ., a global leader in performance fuels , lubricants , and additives , today announced the launch of VP Trials 2ST™ , a purposebuilt fuel designed to address the specific performance needs of trials motorcycle engines .
“ VP is always up for a challenge ,” said Bruce Hendel , Vice President of North American Sales – Race Fuel and Consumer Products for VP . “ So when FactoryONE Motorsports came to us and asked if we could develop a fuel for the unique riding style of trials bikes , we were all in . Over the past year , we worked with Sherco and their top riders to develop a fuel that would accelerate clean and crisp , from low RPM ’ s to full throttle ,
to help improve the performance for the demands of trials riding .”
Trials engines are very different in how they perform , idle and load , leading to responsiveness variations . Triasl bike engines have extremely heavy flywheels that the rider must spool up before releasing the clutch . As a result , the engines must smoothly rev from idle to thousands of RPM instantly and then back to idle without loading up or hesitation . VP Trials 2ST eliminates engine load and hesitation issues , as it is formulated for maximum consistency and clean-burning performance in Trials bikes .
