Husqvarna’s Todd Waters has taken out the top spot at this year’s Berry Sweet Manjimup 15000, with Yamaha’s Matt Moss winning the Allstars Shootout event.

Moss managed a first place position during the opening Allstars MX1, followed by Yamaha’s Aaron Tanti and Waters, but faced a wheel fault leaving him out of the second encounter and overall battle for first.
