DANVILLE, VA. – VIRginia International Raceway has teamed with ace motorcycle racer Nate “N8!” Kern to offer fans an additional thrill at the day-long November 14 Holiday Laps charity event which starts at 9:00 in the morning and winds down at 4:00 that afternoon.
Nate has offered to bring his Morton’s BMW of Fredericksburg race bike, equipped for a passenger, plus leathers and helmet, and raffle off the ride of a lifetime to some lucky person. “It will actually be on the R1200S I won the National ASRA Pro Thunderbike Championship this season on,” announced Kern. Joining with Sasco’s Dave Handy, who is raffling a ride in his 1968 McLaren M6B Can-Am racer, Nate is just another of the local favorites who have stepped up to make the 2008 Holiday Laps bigger and better than ever before.

All 2007 and 2008 F800 S and F800 ST BMW motorcycles have been recalled for problems with the fuel system, gas delivery, hoses, lines, piping and fittings. At high temperatures the fuel tank can actually deform, which could cause the bottom of the tank to rub against the rear wheel. It is possible that this could result in fire.
