Kyle David Smith (born 16 September 1991) is a British motorcycle racer. He competed in the British Supersport Championship aboard a Triumph 765 cc until a crash caused a broken pelvis in September 2021.[2]

Career[edit]

He has competed in the Spanish 125GP Championship, the Spanish Kawasaki Ninja Cup—where he was champion in 2009—and the Spanish Stock Extreme series, where he finished runner-up in 2012.[3] After losing his ride in the Moto2 World Championship during the 2013 season[4] he competed in the European Superstock 600 Championship for Agro-On Racedays aboard a Honda CBR600RR and the Spanish CEV Moto2 Championship for TSR Motorsports aboard a Kalex for the rest of the year. After spending a full season in the FIM Superstock 1000 Cup in 2014, in 2015 he competed in the Supersport World Championship for PATA Honda aboard a Honda CBR600RR—achieving his first win in the series in Losail[5]—and he was second in the Suzuka 8 Hours endurance race with Dominique Aegerter and Joshua Hook.[6] For 2016 he moved to the CIA Landlord Insurance Honda team.[5]
