Michael Schumacher must really be having some fun riding racing bikes. Today he tested the HANNspree Ten Kate Honda CBR 1000RR Fireblade, currently used by Carlos Checa in World Superbike. the team is testing at the French Magny-Cours which will host the next round of World Superbike on October 4. Schumacher is racing this year in the German IDM Championship with a Honda CBR 1000RR.

Ronald ten Kate, team manger from the HANNspree Honda Team said: “I’m always a little nervous letting someone ride our bikes before the end of the season. But with Michael, I was really happy to make an exception. He’s proved to be more than capable of handling the power of our CBR1000RR and he’s really a very good rider.”

Michael was interested in having a look at the teamwork of a professional Superbike Team and it was a great experience for him to ride the bike.
