Craig Neve has re signed with WK Bikes/CF Moto, to form part of the China based manufacturer’s, Lightweight TT challenge.
A former fifth place finisher in the Lightweight Manx Grand Prix, last year saw Craig compete for the first time, at the TT Races.
His TT debut, would prove an extremely successful one, with 37th, 25th, 16th, 24th and 25th place finishes sealed in the RST Superbike, Monster Energy Supersport, Royal London 360 Quantum Superstock and Pokerstars Senior races.
These results where topped off by lapping close to the 125 mph mark, plus an additional 16th place finish in the Lightweight race, following an accomplished performance on the factory CF Moto Super Twin.

Without a doubt in contention for at least in my opinion a top ten finish, in this years Lightweight TT, Craig is delighted to re affirm his link with the ambitious brand.
Tipped to have an extremely bright future on the roads, the Thundersport GB front runner, has the proven pace and talent to wrap up many a standout result at TT 2017.
It’s the four lap Lightweight race though, which for many represents his best chance of an elite finish.
With three years of Mountain Course experience under his belt, the ambition and determination to move within the higher echelons of the TT ranks, plus the backing of CF Moto and WK Bikes, he cannot be discounted from finishing in front of many a famous name.
