British Bike Racing Membership to bustle CB500 championship in 2025
The British Bike Racing Membership (Bemsee) will bustle a new Honda CB500 championship in 2025. Dubbed the Bemsee Thunderbike 500, the class will bustle by itself grid subsequent season, with the sequence gaining ACU championship status and a £5,000 prize pot courtesy of sponsors Fyne Audio and SF Parts.
There can be four classes within the broader sequence; one for learners and three slit up by combined rider and driving package weight. The lightweight class is for riders sub-75kg, middleweight for riders between 75-95kg, and heavyweight for riders over 95kg.
The launch of a new CB500 sequence affords an alternative for riders who may have previously raced their machines with different clubs that have since ceased operations, giving them the chance to proceed racing without having to change classes.
Mike Dommett, the club’s CEO, said, “The addition of a Honda CB500 championship affords us another class that affords extra affordable ways of going bike racing in what is detached a challenging economic climate; there are a lot of reward race-prepped bikes obtainable and an abundance of parts. And with alternatives for riders to race their CB500s lessening in fresh years, we’re happy to be able to invite those riders to be a part of us and race with the oldest bike racing club within the country. “The class construction is based on rider feedback, with rider weight having the greatest impact on performance and lap occasions on lower-powered naked bikes.”
The British Bike Racing Membership’s 2025 season gets underway at Brands Hatch Indy on 14-16 March. For extra information on the club and its classes, click right here.
