North West 200 News

Honda Racing has unveiled the 2025 livery which will appear on the machines ridden by Dean Harrison and John McGuinness in the Supersport, Superstock and Superbike races at this year’s Briggs Equipment North West 200 on May 5-10.

Whilst the livery and riders remain predominantly unchanged, upgrades to both the Superbike and Supersport machines are aimed at boosting Honda’s competitiveness at the North West 200 following last year’s podium finishes at the seaside event by Dean Harrison and John McGuinness.

The team’s first outing of the year will be at the official BSB Test in Navarra on April 6-7.

‘2025 represents an evolution for Honda Racing rather than a revolution.’ team manager, Havier Beltran, explained.

‘Many of the building blocks of an extremely successful 2024 season remain solidified in place and with great excitement we enter the second year of our development cycle with our Fireblade and CBR600RR. Launching the season ahead is always an inspiring time for the team and this milestone represents the enormous collaborative effort of the entire team and all of our trusted partners. I am confident that with our long list of dedicated market-leading sponsors and the team’s experience and commitment, we have everything in place to have an even more successful 2025.’

‘There is a swelling wave of momentum about this team that continues to grow as each team member and partner pushes us forward towards our shared racing goals’ Team Principal, Neil Fletcher, added.

‘That competitive spirit is right at the heart of Honda and its partners, and I very much look forward to witnessing the season unfold.’

‘Honda Racing is one of the leading teams in racing on the roads and tracks.’ NW200 Race Director, Mervyn Whyte, said.

‘The Honda team has been one of the North West 200’s most loyal supporters and Honda riders have a glowing record at our event. We will be delighted to welcome John, Dean and the whole squad back to the north coast in May where I am sure they will be at the front of the pack once again in all three classes.’
