Following OMG Racing’s announcement🌟 to take on a road racing campaign in 2020 with entries for the North West 200 and Isle of Man TT, James Hillier has completed its rider line-up alongside David Johnson.

After an amicable split from Bournemo🅷uth Kawasaki, Hillier has secured a fresh start on the🐽 roads with newcomers OMG Racing. The 14-time TT podium finisher will enter both the Superbike and Superstock classes competing with the team’s BMW S1000RR and in the Supersport category with a Yamaha R6.

Hillier feels 2020 marks “the right time” for a change having partnered Bo🌸urnemouth Kawasaki for a decade and has faith in the pa🐼ckage OMG Racing is putting together despite its inexperience on the roads.

“I’m really looking forward to a new chapter in my career for 2020 with OMG Racing and riding the new BMW S1000RR and Yamaha R6. Making tꦉ﷽he decision to leave Bournemouth Kawasaki, after a really great 10-year relationship, wasn’t one I took lightly,” Hiller said.

“There are lots of challenges involved in moving teams and starting n🦋ew relationships.ꦑ I’ve had an affinity with Kawasaki for 14 years now and switching machines throws up its own challenges, but I’m really excited by it all.

“OMG Racing are putting together a strong package around me, I’ll be working with a crew chief I know, and very closely with the team to develop the bike. With any kind of motorsport, knowing when to make chang🌸es is pivotal to success. It’s definitely the right time for me to make this move🧸 and I can’t wait to get started.”
