Guy Martin will reportedly join Honda Racing for this year's TT.
The Lincolnshire racer missed last year's races to focus on the Tour Divide cycle race in North America, as well as recovering from injuries sustained at the Ulster Grand Prix in 2015.
According to MCN, the 35-year-old will return to the TT as John McGuinness's teammate onboard Honda's latest Fireblade.
Martin, who is also known for his television work, has 16 podium finishes at the TT, but has never won a race.
