Davey Todd takes KYT to the top on the Isle of Man with stunning Superbike TT win

In a performance rich in style, precision, tenacity and spellbinding speed, Davey Todd took his 8Ten Racing BMW Motorrad S1000RR to victory in the RST x D30 Superbike TT. It was the Englishman’s third TT win and the very first time KYT has been at the top of an Isle of Man Podium.

Starting 8th , Davey had the race under control from the start gaining on the riders in front of him, and passing them quickly and cleanly. By half distance, he was 7 seconds clear, but lost almost all of that in a slow pit stop at the end of lap 2. Sensing opportunity, his main rivals pushed, and by the middle of lap three, his advantage had shrunk to a wafer thin 2 hundredths of a second. Davey responded with a breathtaking display of precision, speed and determination, and edged out his advantage to take the win.

In a race week disrupted by poor weather, Davey mounted the podium another three times. He finished second in both Superstock 1000 races and third in the Supersport TT. He was primed for another win in the Senior TT on the final day, but the weather had the last word, and after several delays, the organizers cancelled it on safety grounds. It left Davey disappointed, but already looking forward to the 2026 TT.

Davey Todd is unquestionably the hottest rising talent in international road racing, and KYT Americas is proud to be such an important part of his success.

Just a few weeks after his Superbike TT victory, Davey Todd returned to the Isle of Man for the Southern 100, along with the rest of the world’s top road racers. The KYT sponsored rider once again showed his dominance in the liter class, winning all three superbike races aboard his 8Ten Racing BMW and scoring a supersport win for Padgett’s Honda.

The Southern 100 has been run on the 4.25-mile Billown Circuit since 1955. Unlike the TT, it features a mass start and therefore close racing on a course that features long straights, tricky turns and the famous natural chicane at Church Bends, which is bordered by stone walls. The event is normally run over four days, one for qualifying and three race days. As often happens on the Island though, rain intervened and the first day’s races were postponed.

That meant a hectic schedule on the third day. It opened with the first Senior race in which Davey proved to be untouchable, taking the checkered flag by a margin of five seconds. His second win came in the Supersport race. That was a much closer fight, which he won by two tenths of a second.

On the fourth and final day, Davey won the second Senior race after an epic race-long battle. To wrap it up he took his fourth winner’s trophy in the Solo Championship race. It was another thrilling battle, which saw the 117mph average speed mark for Billown breached for the first time.

As well as once again demonstrating his incredible speed and precision, Davey also reminded competitors and fans of his pure racer’s ability to stay ice cool under the most intense pressure.

Davey goes back to his day job in the British Superbike Championship. Looking ahead, you can also expect to see him in the Macau Grand Prix in November, which is the traditional road racing season closer.
