2025 Kawasaki WorldSBK Team presented in Reggio Emilia
The wonderful location that is “Ruote da Sogno” served as a backdrop for the presentation of the 2025 Kawasaki WorldSBK and Kawasaki WorldSSP Teams, both sponsored buy ISB SPORT. It was an historic moment for Manuel Puccetti and his staff, marking the move from private supported team to factory team, and with Kawasaki no less, a manufacturer with which it has successfully collaborated for twenty years. Attending the event were representatives from
Kawasaki Italy, Kawasaki Europe and Kawasaki Japan.

“New” was the buzzword during the presentation, attended by many sponsors and supporters, which took place on Saturday 8 February in Reggio Emilia, the city in which the team is based.
Not only is there a new team name but also new riders and new bikes. American Garrett Gerloff will field the Ninja ZX-10RR, while the new Ninja ZX-6R, complete with 636cc engine, is entrusted to Spaniard Jeremy Alcoba, who makes his category debut.
Though affected by weather, recent tests at Jerez and Portimao proved positive for both riders who, like their technicians, are now keen to get to Australia and line up against their rivals at the Phillip Island circuit, first during the official tests on 17-18 February and then, for the first round of the two world championships, which will play out at the iconic Australian track on 21-23 February.
The lights on track are about to go on and the Kawasaki WorldSBK Team and Kawasaki WorldSSP Team are ready for a season at the highest level!
