David Knight begins his campaign for a fourth World Enduro Championship this weekend in Chile.
The Manx rider has been crowned champion in 2005, 2006 and 2010.
All were achieved with Austrian manufacturer KTM.
David has chosen to set-up his own small team, with help from Honda Europe, for the 2013 series.
It's a small team with just Manager Paul Edmondson and a mechanic.
Knighter says he prefers being his own boss but admits it will be tough against the factory-backed riders:-
