Superstock 1000 Championship - #1 & #69 Chrissy Rouse

A sole visit to Thruxton for the season... Chrissy has retained his 7th position in the championship after a ninth place finish at Thruxton on its sole visit of the season. After qualifying in eight position for Sunday's race on his Morello Racing Kawasaki ZX-10RR, Chrissy started out with a slower start than he ideally wanted, but managed to hold his starting position in the opening laps to give him a great opportunity to move up the pack as the race progressed. By lap 9, Chrissy had pushed his way forward by three places and was sitting comfortably in 6th...

First and foremost - Congratulations Mr Rouse! As many readers will know, Chrissy Rouse has been conducting his race career alongside studying to become a qualified teacher of Mathematics, which he graduated from only days before kitting up, prepping his bike, and putting down a solid performance at Snetterton! So congratulations Mr Rouse from everyone here at MSG! In good form though, Chrissy was already looking forward to Snetteron... before heading down to the track, he had a few things to say! “I really like Snetterton, I’ve had some great results there over the years and I think the track...

So soon after bagging a fantastic third and fourth place at Knockhill, Chrissy Rouse and Morello Racing Kawasaki were back at it, seeing the World Superbike Championship programme's sole UK visit of the year!

A podium finish in race 1 and pushed out of race 2... With the misfortune seeming to follow the Morello Racing Kawasaki team and Chrissy Rouse from the get-go, the race weekend at Donnington Park looked set to see a return to form for Chrissy! Qualifying for a fifth place grid start, Chrissy launched off to a flying start and quickly made his position up to third!

Ahead of the 2019 season, we asked Chrissy Rouse what kind of hearing protection he would prefer to use when he's racing around tracks at high speed with that gorgeous exhaust sound? He very kindly tested 4 different sets for us and let us know his thoughts! So without further ado, it's over to Chrissy Rouse! Ladies and gentlemen, Chrissy Rouse! The 2019 season is fast approaching, and I’m in need of some new ear protection for my Superstock campaign on the brand new ZX10-RR. I am looking for the best ear protection I can get, which is comfortable, reliable...

The 2019 season is here! Unfortunately the excitement was soon dampened momentarily after Morello Racing Kawasaki's Superstock 1000 rider Chrissy Rouse suffered a spat of bad luck immediately at the season opener. Unfortunately, following a technical problem during the qualifying stage, the Morello Racing Kawasaki team were forced to work flat out to fit a whole new engine to Chrissy's ZX-10RR - which they managed just in time for Saturday's double race where Chrissy managed to pull off an impressive thth place in the first leg of the race, which given the lack of testing time after changing out the...

Introducing our new 'FROM THE TRACK' blog series, with news, insights and more from the world of bike racing. For this first blog, we caught up with MSG Bike Gear sponsored rider Chrissy Rouse and asked him about his crash at Cadwell. What went through your mind after you had come off? So, it was a bit of a strange one at Cadwell, as I was actually unconscious in the crash, so it took a little bit of time to 'come around' and realise what had happened. As I was under the air fence, my first memory was the medics...
