A four time British Superbike race winner, Plater is without doubt the biggest of all the newcomers and finally
realises
his long ambition of competing on the Island.
Twice a runner up in the British Supersport Championship, since 2000 Plater has ridden in the British Superbike Championship for the works Kawasaki, Yamaha, Honda and Suzuki teams and his debut is a mouth-watering prospect. Although he was without a full time ride in 2006, it proved to be one of his most successful years with a superb double at the North West 200 and victory at the prestigious Macau Grand Prix. Plater lines up for the official AIM Racing Yamaha team whilst he will also be competing in the World Endurance Championship for the works Kawasaki team.
