Shoei's UK Distributor Feridax offers their massive congratulations to the legendary John McGuinness, as he further adds to his TT legacy by winning the 2011 PokerStars Seniors’ Race. As the official distributor for SHOEI helmets in the UK, Feridax are incredibly proud that John wears the SHOEI X-Spirit II helmet, the official launch of which took place during the ‘Evening With John McGuinness’ event during this year’s TT, where fans met John in a rare and intimate Q&A session.
The SHOEI X-Spirit II Legend TC-9 helmet is a genuine limited edition replica, with only 500 available, and not only honours a living TT legend, but offers all of the technology, protection and comfortable fit, for which SHOEI are renowned – SRP £599.95. John clinched a thrilling 17th victory in the final race of the 2011 Isle of Man TT Races, setting a new, record time of 1:45.45.8 in the process, but had to come from behind to do it. At the official post-race press conference, John said: “It took me a lap or so to get dialled into the superbike again, but in laps three and four, I really, really pushed hard and realised I could get back into the race.”
“I’m really enjoying my racing at the moment, and I’d like to thank everyone, I don’t think I’ve ridden better and I’m dead proud of winning my 17th race here – it’s brilliant.” You can learn more about the X-Spirit II Legend TC-9 helmet, and the entire SHOEI range by visiting: www.shoeiassured.co.uk
