Torrance, Calif., Dec. 3, 2009 - To ensure that Honda motocross racers maintain a winning edge, two new race-tested Pro Honda suspension fluids are being introduced for the high-performance 2010 CRF250R, American Honda announced today.

Developed in conjunction with the all-new CRF250R, endorsed by Honda R & D, and utilized by Team Honda, the new SS19 Pro Honda fork oil and SS25 Pro Honda shock oil provide superior suspension performance. Optimized to compliment the state-of-the-art Showa components of the completely redesigned CRF250R, these new Pro Honda fluids provide ultra-consistent damping characteristics and help maximize the component life.

"The new Pro Honda SS19 and SS25 are truly a cut above other suspension oils," said Erik Kehoe, Motocross Team Manager, Honda Red Bull Racing. "These new fluids not only help provide consistent damping characteristics lap-after-lap, they also enhance the longevity of suspension components."

Engineered for the next generation of championship bred motocross machinery, the superior formulation of Pro Honda SS19 and SS25 dramatically reduces stiction to enhance suspension compliance. The new SS19 and SS25 suspension oils also maximize protection against fork seal deterioration and bushing wear. Both oils are priced at $15.95 MSRP, come in convenient 32 ounce easy-pour bottles, and will begin arriving at Honda powersports dealers this week.

American Honda offers a full line of Pro Honda chemicals and oils that are specifically designed for the unique requirements of today's high performance motorcycles, ATVs, watercraft and scooters.  Pro Honda products are available exclusively through 1,100 plus Honda motorcycle dealers nationwide.
