Military Appreciation: JE Pistons Powered Bikes at San Diego Supercross

Once per season, race teams and privateers gather in San Diego’s Gaslamp District for a round of Supercross dedicated to military appreciation. Many teams and racers display custom-themed graphics and gear boasting military-inspired designs. It’s great to see so many people in our sport showing support for our military and first responders, so we wanted to highlighted some of the awesome JE Pistons-powered machines we saw in the pits at SD SX.

The Chaparral / FXR / Honda team had some of the most eye-catching bikes in the pits with a metallic snow camo theme, complete with subtle military design touches. This team is running JE Pro Series pistons in their 250 and 450 race machines this season.

The HEP Motorsports Suzuki Team is in their second season of running JE Pro Series pistons, which have proven to make the yellow bike competitive on the track. Their camo theme graphics matched their Thor gear, making it a very clean overall military appreciation package.
