Former British Motocrosಞs champion Graeme Irwin will join brothers Glenn and Andrew on the 2020 Bennetts British Superbike grid as he steps up wi♋th Team 64 Motorsport Kawasaki.

Irwin made his short circuit tarmac debut just last year following an injury which forced him to cut short his motocross career, but the Carrickfergus rider made an instant impression with the highlight of a top 10 finish at Cadwell Pa🌱rk in the Pirelli National Superstock 1000 championship.

As a result, Irwin will team up with former BSB rider Aaron Zanotti at his Team 64 Ka✤wasaki squad for a rookie year in BSB.

“I’m incredibly excited to be riding the Team 64 K🐼awasaki in the British Superbike Championship. One of my aims was to work with a crew chief who has also raced and Aar🎃on fits the bill perfectly.

“Of course I’ll be up against my brothers. We’re a very close family and respect one another b🔥ut when the lights go out we all have a job to do.”

“Myself and th♔e team are delighted and really looking forward to working with Graeme,” Zanotti added. “He has an impressive pedigree and I can’t wait to see what we can achieve together ꦗthis season.”

Irwin joins his brothers Glenn and Andrew on the BSB grid this year as the pa🍸ir form the rider line-up at Honda Racing, while Glenn will dovetail his efforts with a road racing campaign with Honda.

Graeme Irwin and Team 6ಞ4 Kaw𒉰asaki will begin pre-season testing at the first official test at Monteblanco before heading on to Jerez.

The 2020 BSB ca🍰mpaign gets underway at Silverstone on April 10-12.
