Honda Racing UK have today revealed a striking new livery for their CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP that John McGuinness MBE and Glenn Irwin will pilot in the 2022 Isle of Man TT Superbike, Superstock, and Senior TT races.

The design pays homage to the original Honda Fireblade, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the machine that revolutionised the superbike market.

The reveal comes as Honda Racing announces a brand-new partnership with Motul, who will support the team across both the British Superbike Championship and the Isle of Man TT Races for the first time.



McGuinness – a Motul brand ambassador – returns to the Honda Racing team ahead of his 100th TT race start, while team mate Glenn Irwin makes his long-awaited debut after a two-year delay.

You can hear about how John’s deal to rejoin Honda came about in Episode 2 of The TT Podcast, available here.
