Following American Honda's recent announcement that it is offering the powersports industry's most generous contingency payouts for MotoAmerica's Superbike and Stock 1000 classes, the company revealed that it is supporting MotoAmerica's Mission Mini Cup, for which it is now an official supporting manufacturer. Touted by MotoAmerica as the first step in a process that could lead talented young racers to eventually reach elite levels of competition, the Mini Cup offers an opportunity for Red Riders to push themselves on challenging kart tracks, riding Honda miniMOTO models, including the Grom, CRF110F, CRF50F and more.
