Hoping to build on nine T.T. podiums

James Hiller has been confirmed as the Bournemouth Kawasaki rider at T.T. 2017 for the eighth year in a row.

He is the fifth fastest rider in history around the Mountain Course and has been on the podium nine times including the top step in the 2013 Lightweight T.T..

Hillier will be the official Kawasaki rider at the international road races - the team will announce a new title sponsor at Motorcycle Live in Birmingham later this month.
