Marquette, MI – AirGroup Radiant/Husaberg rider Nick Fahringer finished 2nd overall at the sixth round of the Rekluse AMA National Enduro Series while Husaberg Factory rider Mike Lafferty also secured a spot in the top five with a 4th place result.
Fahringer finished inside the top three in five of the six tests to boost himself onto the podium at the end of the day. “I struggled in the first section with some bike set-up issues,” commented Fahringer. “The terrain is so diverse out here it was hard to determine which type of tire I should run and I had to make some adjustments going into the second and third tests. My scores started improving once I got everything sorted and I was able to come in strong at the end.”
Fahringer ended the day with two 2nd place finishes in the final two sections to pass Brad Bakken to takeover 2nd place for the day. His overall result moved him to 2nd place in the point standings.
Lafferty also saw an improvement in his results as the day progressed. He started off slow but came on strong in the final few tests to take home 4th place. Russell Bobbitt, who was sitting 2nd in points prior to the race, was unable to participate in this round after he suffered a bad practice crash earlier in the week. He is currently healing up from his crash and will continue to be evaluated to determine when he can return to the series.
