Cheshire Mouldings FS-3 Kawasaki's Rory Skinner is gearing up for his home round of the Bennetts British Superbike Championship with high hopes of a podium return for the team at Knockhill.

Skinner scored his first podium in his rookie campaign at the Fife circuit last season, making it a pair of second place finishes for Team Green.

“The Knockhill test went really well, being a two day test and being a short lap, gave us lots of opportunities to try new things with the bike. In total we completed nearly 200 laps and I came away feeling really positive for going into the races there," said Skinner.

“Being my home round it’ll be great to have full capacity of fans again as that wasn’t able to happen last season. I can’t wait to be back out on the Cheshire Mouldings FS-3 Racing Superbike in front of my home crowd.”
