Nathan Harrison joins Honda Racing team for 2023 season

Honda Racing UK has confirmed that Nathan Harrison will join John McGuinness in the team for the 2023 road racing season. Nathan is a rising star within the road racing scene and will line up aboard the Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP for the upcoming season. A local to the Isle of Man, Nathan will attempt to build on a successful 2022, where he recorded a 128.087mph lap and finished 10th in the Senior TT. 

"To race alongside John and to ride in the Honda Racing UK team has always been a dream of mine. Coming from a Manx family that has always been involved in motorcycling, the TT has always been in my blood. Watching the TT as a child with John & Honda dominating, it made me want to be the next ‘John McGuinness’ and that was my full focus. I can’t thank Havier & Honda Racing UK enough for the opportunity. It’s only my second ever TT, so to be going into it on a great bike, with the best teammate I could ask for, will be an incredible experience. Hopefully, the long-term plan of where John can teach me things I may not know, learning from the team with the experience they have on the Fireblade and then my own progression, we can make small steps on last year to hopefully get me to that top step in the years to come. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank my Mum and Dad for all their support and sacrifice over the years, my sponsors, and supporters for sticking by me and helping me to get to this position where I have been given the fantastic opportunity." - Nathan Harrison
