MICHAEL RUTTER and the NW200 Coca Cola Yamaha team have agreed to mututally part company.

A statement from the team says that both parties accepted they have struggled to get the best out of each other and feel it would be every ones best interest to part on good terms.

After standout rides on the NW200 Ducati, Rutter has been unable to score any points in the first two rounds of the 2009 British Superbike championship.

No rider has been put forward in line to replace the departing Rutter, but the NW200 Coca Cola Yamaha will continue to run in the Supersport class with Dan Linfoot.

Shame , I've always been a big fan of Rutter, he's just not got on with the new R1, lets hope it's not the last we see of Michael, he still has a lot to offer BSB.
