GUISBOROUGH-based British Superbike outfit, Swan Honda, have completed their final Spanish pre-season test in positive mood.

On the final day at Guadix James Ellison and Stuart Easton targeted longer stints on track as the team's hard work over the past week paid off with both riders improving their lap times on the final day.

Easton clocked a best unofficial lap time of 1m:13.4s, while Ellison lapped the 1.86-mile circuit with an unofficial time of 1m:13.5s.

Ellison said: "We have really made some good progress out here in Spain and today we have managed to test so many different settings; we definitely are leaving here feeling happy.

The Swan Honda seems to really fit me and I am feeling comfortable on track. We have been able to get some consistent laps together and the times have just been coming.

It has been great working with the team again and they have done a fantastic job, we are now looking forward to getting back out on track again in the next few weeks."

Easton added: "We have refined the settings and we are now in a really good position before we start testing again later in the month.

We have improved the bike so much from when we were here last year and my lap times were consistently coming.

We have another test coming up at Cadwell Park and after doing some longer stints today I think we should be ready for a strong start at the first round at Brands Hatch."
