Win a pillion ride with Steve Martin or Troy Corser at Sydney Motorsport Park!

Time to spice things up? We’ve got the perfect remedy: a pillion ride with Steve Martin or Troy Corser at Sydney Motorsport Park during the mi-bike Motorcycle Insurance Australian Superbike Championship presented by Motul (ASBK) Night Race on March 22-23.

The thrill of riding pillion behind the two ASBK ambassadors and former Superbike champions – Corser in 1993 and Martin in 1999 – is simply a money-can’t-buy experience.

The duo will lead the ASBK Pillion Program in 2024, with the SMSP round extra special thanks to the rides being held under the circuit’s giant light towers. Martin will ride a Yamaha YZF-R1 and Corser an Aprilia Tuono.

“The best part about taking pillions out for rides is the reaction on their faces when they come back in,” Martin smiled. “Sometimes you can hear them screaming in the helmet and feel them gripping tight on the handlebars when braking deep in a corner. It just makes it all worthwhile when you can take someone on the ride of their life.

“It’s up to the passenger to keep still and let riders to take control of the Superbike,” said Martin. “You’ve got to go with the flow, many pillions haven’t had any riding experience before, so what they need to do is hold on tight and let the rider take control. They also have to trust that when the rider leans, he won’t lean just far enough.”
