SUPERBIKE/SUPERSTOCK 1000
MOTOAMERICA AMA/FIM NORTH AMERICAN
FINAL ROUND/SEPTEMBER 11-13, 2015
NEW JERSEY MOTORSPORTS PARK/MILLVILLE, NEW JERSEY
P52
At New Jersey Hayden finished
third in race one and then came
up just short by 44-100ths of a
second. And Hayden's team-
mate showed flashes of bril-
liance in his rookie season. But
the fact remains Suzuki's GSX-
R1000 hasn't had a significant
redesign since 2007.
"Basically all bikes now are
a little bit smaller," Hayden said
when talking about where Super-
season marked the first time the
team was shut out with no Su-
perbike wins since 2002. It's not
like Suzuki wasn't competitive.
Roger Hayden, who finished
third in the series, was on the
podium 15 times in 18 races
and had so many second-place
finishes by under a second it
makes your head spin, real-
izing not once was he able to
get across the finish line first.
In the closing laps the drama
was up front. Hayes and Hayden
carried their battle to the flag
with Hayes getting the victory.
Beaubier was safely in third
among Superbikes. The next
Superbike in the field, Ulrich,
was over 10 seconds back.

It was a tough season for
Yoshimura Suzuki. The 2015
The Yamahas remained
undefeated in the
MotoAmerica Superbike
Championship, with
Hayes winning 10 and
Beaubier 8.
