McAdoo Kawasaki have signed Manxman Conor Cummins to ride for them at the Southern 100 and Ulster Grand Prix. The team split from Ryan Farquhar earlier in the summer and have been searching for a rider since.
A team statement said: "22 year old Conor is a fast rising star in road racing and won the Duke Road Race Championship in 2007, his first full season in road racing at the tender age of 21. He has enormous potential and the team are excited to get back into racing with Conor after missing the TT.
Nicknamed the ‘two-metre man’ due to his 6 six-feet stature, Conor will race the team’s Kawasaki ZX-10R and ZX-6R Ninja bikes.
