Kawasaki Provec Motocard.com rider Broc Parkes enjoyed a recent test at Misano and now hopes to score strong results at the forthcoming Imola round.

Parkes is particularly keen to get back into action as he left the two-day Misano test having found the feedback from his front end set-up that he wanted and is now ready to go for race wins in the last three rounds.

“I am really looking forward to the last three rounds because they should really count for us,” Parkes said. “I have to go to Imola with a positive attitude and the final placings will probably only come out at the very last round. The final races take place at tracks I really like and where the bike works well.

“Hopefully we can get back up there on the podium this weekend. We were trying out a lot of stuff back-to-back at the Misano tests and we just really tried to confirm a few things. I felt like I had my bike back and our lap times were really good.

“We bettered the times we did there during race weekend in the summer, which shows that we are making progress still.”

Parkes currently has six career WSS wins and 27 podiums, all in 79 race starts. He is overall fourth in the rankings at present, only eight points behind his teammate David Salom.
