Official tests at the Richardo Tormo circuit in Spain on 9-10 February saw PBRA-backed, Danny Kent, posting the fourth fastest unofficial lap time of 1.41,2.
Having previously ridden an Aprilia 2-stroke machine, 18-year-old Kent is confident that he is getting more used to the new Kalex-KTM 4-stroke bike, which he believes better suits his riding style.
Kentsaid: “Every time I ride the bike I learn something new, and therefore continue to improve. I’m really looking forward to the next test as I believe things can only get better from here.”
