John McGuinness “up, down and round the houses” during Honda testing
John McGuinness and Dean Harrison bo🐓th spent the past week testing ahead of this year’s BSB and road racing season.

The recent official BSB test at Navarra also presented an opportunity to Honda Racing UK’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:road racing riders – John McGuinness and Dean Harrison – to get out on-track ahead of the up♏coming season.
The official Honda UK team was in Spain for a week, testing with its BSB riders Tommy Bridewell 🦂and Andrew Irwin, as well as with the aforementioned McGuinness ꦰand Harrison and reigning British Supersport Champion Jack Kennedy.
M♛cGuinness was pleased to get so much riding in while in Spain, having tested at Monteblanco before heading to the official Navarra BSB test.
“I’ve spent six days riding in the last seven which is just so, so great – we’re lucky boys to get the opportunity to do so many miles, and miles make smiles,” McGuin𒈔ness said after the Navarra test.
“To get everyon𓆉e back together and to be working so well is great because, let's face it, it’s a lot of time living in each other's pockets! But everyone 🅘is getting on great and working hard.”
The 23-time TT winner said he had numerous🧸 parts on the Honda to test, as well as new tyres from Metzeler.
“We’ve been up, down and round the houses with settinꦅgs and testing bits and bobs,” he said.
“I’ve done a lot of tyre testing too, and it is greaꦯt to see that Metzeler are putting so much into it and not standing still, because these options that we have tried this weekend have been very good and the new product is strong.
“For me, the bike is great, the bike is competitive a♋nd this time last year we hadn’t had much time on the bike so we are in a really good place.
“There’s no magic wand for me, I j🥂ust want to keep riding.”
Harrison: "The week as a whole has been really good"
As last year, Honda’s big🌼gest hope for winningღ on the roads in 2025 is Dean Harrison, who will also contest the British Supersport Championship full-time this year.
T𝓀he Laxey-based rider split his time between the Supersport, Superstock, and Superbike Hondas while in Spain, and, like McGuinness, was enthused by his ওMetzeler tyre testing.
“The week as a whole has been really good, we’ve constantly been developing everything and tested so many differe🐟nt bits and pieces and everything is j𝓰ust getting better and better which is really positive,” said Harrison.
“We had four days at Monteblanco but we lost a day to t🦩he weather in the end, so I started the wℱeek on the Superstock bike then jumped on the Supersport bike in Monteblanco.
“Then here at Navarra, I spent a day♒ on the Superbike, which has been really positive and we’ve got things in a decent window, before getting onto my 600 again today.
“We have chipped away all day and gone quicker and qui🧜cker even though the weather is getting hotter and hotter and we now have some good direction to work on for Donington.
“We’ve 👍also been busy doing some Metzeler tyre testing which has gone well and the new compound that we have is definitely ♐a big improvement. “
