Most of us who ride have a strong support system, friends and family.  Does this sound familiar?  What brings us together is our passion for the sport of motorcycling.  Regardless of what you ride, it’s a bond that we can all identify with and it transcends across all borders.  When it comes to our passion, we must do all that we can to protect ourselves and loved ones.

Komodo holds firmly to the philosophy that safety is a Value.  We believe that form must follow function; we provide our customers with products that actually work in a racing environment.  Safety is a value that can
not be compromised and we believe in building a safety culture around us and our customers.  Educating our customers on materials and production methods we use in a racing leathers is always a priority; and we openly share these facts with our customers because we believe it creates trust and confidence.  We passsafety on as a value because it is a part of our code of ethics.

We will continue to live by this code because it is our loved ones that suffer most when something happens.  When you live for your passion, make sure you are placing your faith in a company who values your safety as much as you value your own health.

Rider of the Month – Mitch McGinnis

Mitch McGinnis

Mitch is a veteran racer who has been on “hiatus” for many years and is now back in the game racing an ’08 Honda CBR1000rr on the new Michelin, Power One, motorcycle racing tires.  Mitch is racing as a Novice this year, but is leading in the points in the Formula 40 class.  This is not an average class, it is actually a very competitive class as many of the riders are similar to Mitch in that they used to race and are now, “back in the game”.

Mitch hails from Oklahoma and runs a successful business as a commercial painter.  Mitch understands the dedication and discipline required to win and much of his success in racing is a reflection of Mitch, himself.  What’s also great to know about Mitch is that he brings his family with him to the racetrack including his son, Sean, and his girlfriend, Beverly.  They are always there to support Mitch and take time out to visit with the other riders and their families.  This is a big part of the culture at the CMRA (www.cmraracing.com) where you will meet many families who are dedicated to the sport and the success of the club.

Mitch is racing in the full “racing package” offered by Komodo.  His racing leathers are the highly acclaimed K-FX race suit and his racing gloves are the K-FX model,  as well.  Mitch also wears the highly proven FX racing boot and even our CE rated back protector and Motorcycle Undersuit to assist in riding comfort and safety.  All of these racing products work together as a system that allows Mitch to stay focused and be successful on the race track.  Mitch knows that racing success requires the best products and technology including your riding gear because your safety as a rider can not be compromised if you want to win.

Komodo Gear wants to take this opportunity to introduce Mitch to our followers so you can actually see real riders racing their hearts out.  It’s a great way to get an “inside feel” for club racing and how Komodo Gear integrates into the success of the riders and their racing careers.  We want to thank Mitch and his family for believing in Komodo and giving us the opportunity to support him in his “comeback” to the top!
