After James Stewart was forced to withdraw from the '08 Monster Supercross season due to a knee injury, the Monster Kawasaki team had equipment, personnel sitting idle. Luckily for them, Travis Preston was in a similar situation, since a sponsorship shuffle had left him without a ride. TP was introduced as a temporary replacement for Jame today at Press Day for A3.
Branden Jesseman was also introduced as a replacement on the Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki team, for the injured Christophe Pourcel.
The Kawasaki squad is headed for the track, so we'll have more, including quotes, later on.
