Reliable, high-quality transport is important for not just the riders but also the team when we need to get around quickly. The scooters are easily chargeable, which means at the end of the day the batteries can be charged in the race truck, the garage or the rider motorhomes, so they can be ready for the next day.

Drew Irvine, NIU UK Brand Manager, said: “We’re really excited to become a part of one of the UKs most successful and forward-thinking motorcycle racing teams. Being able to support the FHO teams 2023 racing season in both their top-tier championship chase as well as nurturing female talent in motorsport, all while driving down the net-emissions volume of UK motorcycle racing, is something which NIU takes great pride in being part of.”

However, by introducing more electric transport into the supporting functions, we can drive down the environmental impact of the sport all while keeping the same value and traditions which the spectators love.”
