GASGAS BACKS MCMAHON FOR 2022 ENDURO CHALLENGE

One of Australia’s brightest young stars of enduro competition Korey McMahon will 'Get On The Gas!' with GASGAS backing in 2022, set to challenge for the Australian Off-Road Championship (AORC) and Australian Four-Day Enduro (A4DE) together.

At 20 years of age, McMahon won the AORC EJ category in 2020 against a talent-packed field, then raced as a GASGAS-supported rider as he stepped up to the senior ranks in 2021. He impressed at Golden Beach's rounds in Victoria last season on debut in E2, claiming a pair of sixth-place finishes in class.

Now, with added GASGAS resources at his disposal and the promise of a full year of off-road racing ahead, the Kurrajong, NSW, resident has his sights set on consistent podium results in the E1 division riding a GASGAS EC 250F. By the time the AORC series wraps up in Tasmania come October, McMahon has a goal of landing in the top five outright.

Rounds one and two of the 2022 Australian Off-Road Championship season will take place at Cherrabah, Queensland, from 19-20 March.

Korey McMahon: "This is my second year with GASGAS and it’s exciting to now have that added level of support - it’s a great opportunity to be 100 percent committed to racing dirt bikes. My first appearance at senior level last year was an eye-opener, but now that I know what to expect and have become a full-time racer, I can focus solely on becoming the best I can be, rather than having to balance my racing with full-time work. Testing has been going well so far and every time we go out on the bike I feel like we take another big step forward. I’m super-excited for the year ahead and can’t wait to get out there for a full season of racing."

Kyle Blunden (KTM Group Australia Motorsport Manager):
 "2021 was a positive season for GASGAS in many aspects and we are excited to assist Korey in order to continue this momentum through 2022. Korey is a very exciting young rider with a huge amount of talent on a motorcycle, he’s proven himself as a threat when competing across many disciplines and is excited at the prospect of representing GASGAS in the E1 class. With the bit between his teeth, Korey is ready to attack the season full gas!"
