The company Toye
speaks of is designed purely
on getting more bums on
racing seats across America
by essentially becoming
a one-stop race shop for
Kawasaki's Ninja 400. He's
only had the business up
and running for under a
year, but in that time he's al-
ready seen club and national
racing success with his main
protagonist, Ashton Yates,
finishing fourth in the 2018
MotoAmerica Junior Cup
with race wins at Laguna
Seca (the round Jeremy
started working with Ashton)
and Sonoma.
Toye specializes in three
different versions of the Nin-
ja 400—a base track-day ma-
chine for $8895 that will be
good for any punter to get
out there and circulate the
racetrack, an Expert Club
spec (the one we raced at
Sonoma) for $11,520, and
the MotoAmerica/FIM Cup
spec Ninja 400 that Yates
rode in the final half of the
2018 season for $12,779.
"Entry-level one is the ab-
solute basic for what it takes
to get on the track safely and
get around, which is very few
parts," Toye says. "The Ex-
pert Club level has the least
restrictions because of the
rules specific to each club.
The weight is the lightest out
of the three bikes and it will
make the most horsepower
out of the three bikes to fit
the rule package.

Time to go into battle
with some kids!
Toye prefers to use
GP Suspension for the
Expert Club kit, although
you can opt for Ohlins or
K-Tech if you want.
