MSS Kawasaki's Simon Andrews has exclusively revealed to bikesportnews.com the design his Shoei will be sporting in the 2009 British Superbike Championship even before his paint man has seen it.

Andrews, who is currently altitude training at Meribel in the French Alps, showed the design to us even before Rich Stevens at Rich-Art Concepts has had a chance to see it.

"I kept a little of last year's design in it, but as the bike and my leathers are going to be green next season, I thought I'd better get it all in line," said Andrews.

"It's slowly sinking in now that racing is just around the corner. January comes and goes in a flash but February seems to be forever as we count down each day before the start at Brands Hatch. I can't wait to get going."
