BRITISH superbike star Michael Rutter took time out from his track duties to officially open the new Hein Gericke motorcycle accessory and clothing specialist centre in Moordown.
The series front runner on his HM Plant Honda Racing machine met fans and signed autographs over two days while riders from across the region poured into the new high profile outlet to see the latest merchandise.
Many also took the opportunity to have their own bikes checked on a dyno test - staff were on hand to advise owners of ways that they could increase the performance of the machines. Bournemouth is the latest of 43 outlets operated by Hein Gericke.
