The Oakland round of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross series marked the final appearance of Zach Osborne in the West Coast Lites series.

Osborne signed off his impressive four-round appearance in the AMA competition by taking his second podium aboard the YZ250F that he will steer in the 2012 MX2 Motocross World Championship.

The 22-year-old grabbed third position in Los Angeles a week prior and made the box again with another third place in Oakland.

“I’m really happy and I think all of this is going to be good for my GP program,” he said. “We put a lot of work into suspension. We have a really good setting and I think the bike is really good.

“I feel super comfortable on it and I can’t thank those guys enough for putting in a lot of time and effort and making it happen for me, too.”

Osborne will shortly travel back to Europe to begin preparation for the grand prix campaign, but departs the West Coast Lites series third in the standings and with some valuable confidence and race-time under his belt.
