NATHAN HARRISON CONTINUES UNDER H&H MOTORCYCLES BANNER FOR TT 2026
After a superb 2025 campaign, the 27-year-old from Douglas will again compete on Honda machinery, lining up on a Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade in the RST Superbike TT, both RL360 Superstock TT races and the Milwaukee Senior TT. Harrison will also compete in the two Monster Energy Supersport TT races aboard the Honda CBR600RR.
Harrison’s rise through the ranks of road racing has been rapid and impressive. After winning both the Junior and Senior races at the Manx Grand Prix as a 21-year-old in 2019, the local rider has established himself on the Mountain Course, delivering increasingly strong performances each time he has competed at the event.
Despite encountering several setbacks during his career, Harrison’s determination and resilience have been evident throughout his progression. His maiden TT campaign in 2022 concluded on a high note with an excellent tenth-place finish in the Senior TT, an achievement that underlined his potential around the 37.73-mile course.
Harrison lined up as team-mate to 23-time TT winner John McGuinness in both 2023 and 2024 for Honda Racing.
That performance brought him to the attention of Honda Racing and provided a dream opportunity as he lined up as team-mate to 23-time TT winner John McGuinness in both 2023 and 2024, with fellow race winner Dean Harrison also joining the team in 2024.
However, injuries sustained at the North West 200 ruled Harrison out of the 2023 TT and he was forced to wait until the following year to line up on Glencrutchery Road as a factory Honda rider. Despite retiring from his opening two races, the Senior TT again provided a highlight as he improved both his result and lap speed, finishing seventh with a fastest lap of 129.156mph.
Keen to build on that momentum, Harrison formed his own team for 2025 – H&H Motorcycles – continuing to receive support from Honda UK. With a clear run at the event, he emerged as one of the standout performers of race week.
The Manxman opened his account with a superb fourth-place finish in the RST Superbike TT, recording his fastest lap of the TT Course to date at 131.270mph. Further consistency followed with a brace of seventh-place finishes in the RL360 Superstock TT races, both achieved with additional 130mph+ laps, while 12th place in the first Monster Energy Supersport TT race marked his best result in the middleweight class.

Speaking about his return to the event in 2026, Harrison said he is eager to continue the progress made last year.
Nathan Harrison said: “I was really pleased with how last year went. Getting that fourth place in the Superbike TT and putting in a 131mph lap showed what we can do. For 2026, I want to just concentrate on myself and keep improving. It’s what I’ve done all my career, slowly getting quicker and quicker. Hopefully I can add a mile an hour or two this year and see where we end up.”
“Running our own team with H&H Motorcycles, headed by my dad Dean has worked really well. I couldn’t do it without him and the continued support from Honda UK. We’ve got a strong package again. I’d love a podium. That’s what I dream about every day when I get up and train. Everything I’m doing is towards that, so if I could do it, that would be amazing.”
Harrison has once again worked his way back to full fitness.
Away from the TT, Harrison also enjoyed strong performances in the Pirelli National Superstock Championship during 2025, particularly at Thruxton, before misfortune struck at Donington Park in September when he sustained several injuries after being struck by a wayward machine.
Harrison has once again worked his way back to full fitness and now turns his attention firmly towards the 2026 Isle of Man TT Races, where the Manxman will be aiming to build on the most successful campaign of his TT career to date.
