Josh Brookes will ride for McAMS Yamaha in the two Monster Energy Supersport TTs and the RL360 Superstock race.

Brookes competes for the team in the British Superbike Championship, but will now ride specially prepared YZF-R6 and YZF-R1 machines for the TT.

The Australian is one of the highest profile short-circuit riders to take on the legendary 37.73 mile Mountain Course, having logged a personal best lap of 130.883mph.

The McAMS Yamaha squad are no stranger to the TT having taken four Supersport wins with Ian Hutchinson on their Yamaha YZF-R6 machinery.

This season the team have added Superstock experience running a YZF-R1 in the Pirelli National Superstock 1000 series, which runs within the Bennett’s British Superbike Championship.

The team have built two all new Supersport and Superstock machines for the event, developed for high speed, stability and durability over this gruelling event.

Brookes, who will ride a Norton in the Superbike and Senior TTs explained: ’I’m obviously keen to ride as many classes as possible, to test myself on different machinery and just as importantly to continue to build up my TT course knowledge, which you can only do with extended track time.

’It took a while to come together but I’m really happy to be riding a YZF-R6 and YZF-R1 in team colours, the Supersport bike especially has been really strong previously.

’Ideally we’ll get good weather during practice week and get used to these two very different bikes.’

Team manager Grant Bunting added: ’Josh was really keen and for Monster it’s a really important global event so we’re throwing everything at building a top-spec machine for each class.

’We’ve obviously had great success in the Supersport class so we’re looking forward to help Josh with his ongoing TT progression.’
