The final round of the mi-Bike Australian Superbike (ASBK), sponsored by Motul, was held at The Bend Raceway in South Australia over 8-10th November.

Jonathan (JJ) Nahlous (Glenwood) was the most successful overall of the western Sydney riders, finishing in the minor placings in each of his three races in the Michelin Supersport category, yet those results consolidated his lead in the Series, allowing him to capture this year’s title.

Jack Farnsworth (Glenhaven) finished 7th for the round and 5th in the series, whilst Jack Favelle (Cattai) finished 10th for the round and 8th for the series.

Jack Passfield (Bidwell) had been sitting in 2nd spot in the Superbike Masters Cup and was in a great position to finish on top, with leader Keo Watson out through injury. Fate would however not favour Jack on the weekend, with technical problems preventing him from racing, leaving him stranded in 2nd spot for the year, albeit still an excellent result.

William Hunt (Mulgoa Rise) had added the ShopYamaha R3 Cup to his racing schedule this year, along with the Race & Road Supersport 300.

William had three Top Ten results of 10th, 9th and 8th to finish 7th for the round on the R3 and a highly successful 4th placing for the year. He also finished 17th, 18th and 13th in the Supersport 300, finishing 17th for the round and 11th for the year.

Elijah Andrew (Marayong) also raced in the ShopYamaha R3 Cup, finishing 18th for the round and 12th for the series. He also raced in the bLU cRU Oceania Junior Cup, finishing 10th for the round and 9th for the series, ahead of Zac Russo (Sackville North) 20th/round and 15th/series and Adam Jordan (East Kurrajong) 21st/round and 18th/series.
