Bradford rider Dean Harrison staying at Honda Racing UK

And Bradford ace Dean Harrison has been retained by the prestigious team.

Returning to race once more in the North West 200 and Isle of Man TT Races, Harrison is eager to build on an excellent debut year racing the Fireblade and CBR600RR on the roads.

Podiums aboard Superbike, Superstock and Supersport machinery in his first year of racing for Honda laid the solid foundations on which to build in 2025.

Harrison will also supplement his road racing activities with a season of racing in the British Supersport category.

In the Bennetts British Superbike series, Tommy Bridewell continues for a second year, keen to go one better and become a two-time BSB champion.

His 2024 campaign had three wins and a further 16 podiums en route to second in the championship standings, just a single point away from consecutive titles on alternate manufacturers.

Joining him aboard a Honda Racing UK Fireblade once more is Northern Irishman Andrew Irwin, who is set to embark on his fifth season with the team.

A previous winner aboard Honda machinery, he made a welcome return to the podium on multiple occasions last year and targets more in 2025.

Lining up to compete solely in the ‘big bike’ classes is road racing royalty, John McGuinness MBE.

His popular return to the podium at this year’s NW200 was a clear standout from his 34th season of motorcycle racing, with he and Honda now set to continue making history together for another year.

And fresh from his 2024 British Supersport Championship triumph, Jack Kennedy will ride for Honda Racing UK in 2025 with a decision pending on the championship in which he will race.

He is set to test 2025 Supersport & Superbike machinery at the end of November before making a decision on his future.
