Few riders have enjoyed the large and loyal fan base that Texan Kevin Schwantz has and the one World Championship he has to his name doesn’t do his talent justice. With his self confessed win-or-bust style it was obvious he was going to be popular with the crowds after his first visit to Europe to ride in the Anglo American Match Races. So much so that he always considered Donington Park and the British Grand Prix as his home round. When the inevitable Suzuki Grand Prix ride came along, Schwantz approached the top level of the sport with the same cavalier attitude – when he won he did it with great panache, when he didn’t he usually came back on the wrecker truck. Schwantz stayed loyal to Suzuki throughout his career and still works for the company today.
