McGuinness signs with Bournemouth Kawasaki

23-time TT winner takes over from Hillier

Isle of Man TT star John McGuinness will be back in action this year after signing with Quattro Plant Bournemouth.

Taking over from fellow racer James Hillier, McGuinness is set to ride the new ZX-10RR for Superstock and Superbike classes on both the Mountain Course and at the North West 200.

Drawn to the team by its high reputation and family-feel, McGuinness says Bournemouth Kawasaki ticks all the boxes for him.

He added that after breaking his leg in last year's North West 200, he's back to full fitness and after his performances at Macau, he has his mojo back.
