Anyone remember the "Performance Bikes" videos? Shane "Shakey" Byrne was one of the "how to pull wheelies" riders. He won both of the Brands Hatch WSB races last year as a wildcard entry. He's running an Aprilia in MotoGP this year. This is awesome news as he is VERY exciting to watch. Kinda like Garry McCoy in his style.
Here's the press release.
