He is the first Turkish motorcycle world champion of the history of this sport.

Born in 1984 at Adapazari in Turkey, Kenan starts his career in 2001 on a 600cc supersport in the national championship, he finishes 2nd .
In 2002 Kenan Sofuoglu continues in Yamaha cup where he wins the championship.
For the 2003 year, he goes to Germany for the local Supersport champ and finishes second overall.
His advancement does not stop there and in 2004 he goes in the Européan Superstock championship where he finishes 3rd overall and 2nd the year after, in 2005.

In 2006 Honda Ten Kate hires him in World Supersport team alongside Sébastien Charpentier, and Kenan Sofuoglu will finish third at the championship.

2007 is what we all saw, a fantastic season with a world title highly deserved.
For 2008 a seat in the Ten Kate World Superbike Team is waiting for him...

Kenan Sofuoglu after Brands Hatch race :
"I cannot explain what I am feeling. To win the championship in August is such an amazing feeling and I don't think anyone has ever done this before. I have to thank the team because without them this would not have been possible.

The race was actually pretty difficult, particularly in the last laps, and there was so much going on in my head that it was hard to concentrate. I just tried to focus and once I got to the final lap I knew I had done it. This is incredible, I am so happy!"

About www.motorcyclists-online.com English version:
At the beginning, in 2001, www.motorcyclists-online.com was an exclusive French Motorcycle website. Now, since September 2005, it has become bilingual: English speaking people are welcome !
We do believe, at www.motorcyclists-online.com, that linguistic boundaries are not a problem when we share the same passion for bikes.
We are currently working on translating all articles and contents, to finish the UK/US version. You will certainly notice some bugs or translation errors: please do not hesitate to advise us by e-mail, Private Message or by posting in the Forum. Your help is welcome !
For the moment, articles which haven’t been human translated are automatically machine translated, which I must confess is not really famous, but faster than human translators.
