Kawasaki ROKs Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca is a continuation of Kawasaki’s popular bike show series, and it’s coming to the iconic Monterey racetrack during the World Superbike weekend.

On Saturday, July 18, 2015, Kawasaki owners and enthusiasts are invited to hang out with the ROK gang on the inside of turn 3 at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. They can enter their own Kawasaki motorcycle into the bike show or enjoy event activities including music, food, giveaways, special guest appearances and more surprises throughout the day.

The event will be held from 4:00 – 6:00pm and bike show entrants will have the opportunity to win prizes from a number of event sponsors, including Pirelli Tires, Two Brothers Racing, Sena Bluetooth, Bell Motorcycle Helmets, and Kawasaki Genuine Accessories.

For those who plan on enjoying the racing, pre-registration will take place Friday and Saturday, at the registration counter for the members-only Riders of Kawasaki chalet, also located on Turn 3. Those who pre-register will have the opportunity to park in the VIP event area for the entire day, Saturday, beginning at 9:00am. *You must visit the Kawasaki area for pre-registration before entering your motorcycle into VIP event area. To enter the members-only Riders of Kawasaki chalet you must be a member of ROK or purchase a membership at the event.

Public voting for the favorite motorcycles will begin at 4:30pm, and the winners will be announced at 6:00pm, once all votes have been counted.

Judging categories for the bike show are Best Race Replica Ninja Sportbike, Best Custom Ninja Sportbike and Best Vintage Kawasaki. A people’s choice winner will be selected in each category. One lucky winner from each category will also have the chance to win the coveted Best in Show prize.

Even if you don’t own a special Kawasaki, be sure to come along and enjoy the atmosphere, see some great bikes, and visit the Two Brothers and Kawasaki displays. You can also take advantage of the food concessions as well as the many vendors. So rather than fight through the traffic leaving the racetrack, why not relax and enjoy Kawasaki ROKs Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, enjoy the music and vote for your favorite Kawasaki motorcycles.
