The switch has occurred thanks to a huge 500% increase in business since the move to the previous unit in August 2003 and it puts the company in pole-position to increase its business still further with big plans for this year and beyond. Reasons behind this growth include R&G Racing’s unquestioned position as the world’s number one manufacturer of crash protection parts for the motorcycle industry and the move into other areas, with goods such as motorcycle covers, heated bar grips, knee-sliders, tail tidies, exhaust hangers and the latest addition to the family: Engine Case Covers.

Simon Hughes, R&G Racing’s Sales Director also attributes the success to attending trade events on both sides of the Atlantic and the company’s push into the lucrative US market. He said: “During the hard times there are always opportunities for confident, forward-thinking companies to move forward and we are embracing this by moving to new, spacious premises, opening our US distribution operation and continuing to bring out new products such as our recent Engine Case Cover range.” Added to this is the fact that every year the company invests in the UK industry in some way.

In 2009 they were headline sponsors of the R&G Racing Suzuki GSX-R Trophy and in 2010 R&G Racing will be supporting the Ducati 848 Challenge, as well as sponsoring many individual riders and teams, including the Worx Crescent Suzuki team in this year’s MCE British Superbike Championship. R&G Racing are the world’s number one manufacturer of crash protection and 2009 marked their 10th anniversary of producing high-quality crash protection and other after-market accessories for motorcycles.
