TT 2010 News 6 Months, 4 Weeks ago  
If you check the main TT website australian Dave Johnson makes his debut at the TT this year. Also Ben Wylie riding for phase one yamaha as carl rennies team mate at this years north west and TT this year.

Also found out from the TT website that KTM and BMW are definately running works teams at this years TT. Don't have a clue whos riding for them think though more will be revealed at the press launch for the TT this year.

I think Rico Penzkofer will be riding a BMW.....

He rode one at Macau and on his site on his calendar IOM TT is stated for 2010.

KTM riders I don't know as well...

The other perhaps more likely(?) option is Michael Rutter. The team he rides for (ridersmotorcycles.com) have a BMW dealership as well as Ducati. Blade has stated he'd like to ride a superstock S1000RR but it was dependant on BMW backing. He's also expected to ride his Ducati in the superbike races.

Rutter on a BMW superstocker at the TT would be good news, however I think he now rides at his own pace at the TT.

Does this mean that he will completely ignore all other riders and not acknowledge a friendly wave or nod unless they have a couple of silver bread bins strapped to the side of their bike?

Re:TT 2010 News 6 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
Great news for the profile of the TT if international Factory Teams and Riders wanna come to the mecca of motorcycle racing.We all know the TT is the pinnical of bike racing on the planet.BMW have a bike that is capable of doing the damage in the superstock class and with the right backing and rider they could upset the usual front runners in the Superbike class too.
As for KTM the street bike is prety-pretty good....whether even the fastest most experienced rider could turn it into a senior win the jury is out,a stocker win is also difficult to see.
Ducati`s stocker in the right hands is a force that would be hard to challange...
As for Rutter the dude has skills...he`s a winning rider and with the right package and mind set can ply his trade and make an impact at the sharp end...
2010`s TT is wide open,I`d like to see Ryan step up and use his new backing to re-establish himself as a TT winner.For the sport and the national circuit his dominance would mean so much,especially with all the H&S talk and changing times...
The best of the NEW rest are just dressing...the usual suspects will prevail once the bulshit stops...McG is still King of the Mountain...a blip with a DNF has only put back the case for more glory...
The NW will show us a preview of the hands held at the top table of players...
Until then I`m keeping my bets in my pocket...%`s say always back the favorite...who that is will be apparent come the end of the NW....shit 2010 is looking hot!

Don't think karl harris is doing the TT this year now after he has signed for this new aprilla team he is riding for in BSB this year. Bit of news steve mercer still running his own team this year in conjunction with jentin racing check his website for more news.

your right catweazle.
Rico will contest the TT with the BMW this year. Official news on his helmet sponsor site X-Lite. Good luck also for you with your new Kawa this year. Hope to see you at Frohburg.
