Relatively new to the UK racing industry Gimoto leathers have broken into the British Superbike Paddock this season in a big way and the riders wearing Gimoto leathers have had a great start to the year and are looking forward to round three this weekend at Croft Circuit.
Across the board the Gimoto riders have had a very good opening start to their season with British Supersport Rider Ben Wilson currently leading the Championship, Matt Davies is leading the British 125 series, youngster Danny Buchan is dominating the National Superstock 1000 Championship and National Superstock 600 rider Connor Behan lying in fourth place overall with two rounds completed.
A full summary of the Gimoto riders current standings in each class in the British Superbike series are set out below.

From this weekend at Croft GiMoto will have a technical support service vehicle for their riders to visit throughout the weekend to ensure their leathers are in the perfect condition for the practice, qualifying and races.
Editors Notes
The Gimoto Story…
With over one hundred years of continuous production, Gimoto is one of the most experienced companies in Lombardy specialising in the sector of leather motorcycle clothing.
Established in 1890, and still owned and managed by the Mazzola family, Gimoto started its activity with the production of leather gloves, anticipating and setting a widespread fashion of the following century.
In 1978 Gilberto Mazzola set about a gradual conversion of his glove-factory in order to become one of the top Italian producers of leather race suits and protective motorcycle clothing.
The current management, brothers Andrea and Daniele Mazzola, have implemented important improvements from both commercial and production points of view. They are growing their company steadily by leading the specialist market of made-to-measure, custom designed leather clothing with a constant respect for the company’s traditions, whilst continuing to add innovative new products and accessories to their range.
Gimoto’s whole approach to business is supported by a strong customer-oriented philosophy. This is demonstrated by the introduction of the very radical on-line design tool “Colour Switcher”, which allows customers world-wide to dynamically design and specify made-to-measure leather clothing and race suits, which can be personalised according to their wishes. The burgeoning export market now includes individuals, dealers and major motorcycle manufacturers in most major countries around the world. With customer service and safety uppermost, the design, construction and manufacturing methods developed by Gimoto combine to create a strong element of distinction compared with its direct competitors.
