TT legend John McGuinness signs with KYT

John McGuinness, one of the biggest ever names in the 118-year history of the Isle of Man TT, has confirmed that he will be riding with KYT Helmets in 2025.


The 23-time TT winner is one of those rare athletes whose popularity matches his incredible achievements. Thanks to the 29-year span of his impressive TT career, the records he has broken, and his competitiveness beyond the age of 50, John McGuinness is a living reminder of what the word ’legend’ truly means.


His recognition beyond motorcycle racing came in 2021, when John was honored as a Member of the British Empire (MBE) by Queen Elizabeth. Add this to the former bricklayer’s famous dry wit and relaxed everyman persona, It’s impossible to imagine a better ambassador for the KYT brand.


The 2025 international road racing season starts in Northern Ireland with the North West 200 from May 5 – 10. After that, we head for what many proclaim as the ‘Greatest Motorsport Event in the World,’ the Isle of Man TT, which starts on May 26 and runs through to June 7.


Stay tuned, because a very special limited edition John McGuinness replica helmet is coming soon!
