Daizo Midorikawa and I have in common the passion for motorcycle racing. With Blu-X-graphics, he decorates everyday bikes with stickers in a "racing" way. In 2011, by passion and pleasure, Daizo has been chosen to decorate the bike of a famous Japanese rider back to racing in Japan : Yukio Kagayama.

Afetr a carrer in World (2005-2010) and British Superbike (2003-2004, 2010), Yukio Kagayama chose to come back home and to go on racing. Faithful to Suzuki, Yuki will ride a GSX-R 1000 in his own team. The bike's design has been made by Torao Web Pit and the stickers by Blu-X-graphics.

The All-Japan Superbike championship is a top-level series : most of the riders raced at world level, notably at Suzuka 8 Hours, and the demoestic manufacturers are very involved.
