[1] Ryan Farquhar launched his new team under the KMR Kawasaki banner in 2009, with the aim of competing at International and National road race meetings.

Prior to the team's inception, Farquhar had enjoyed one of his most successful seasons to date in 2008, when he won both the Irish Superbike and Supersport Road Race Championships.

On the notable side, Farquhar signed both fellow Irishman Adrian Archibald, and Hungarian Sandor Bitter to campaign for the KMR Kawasaki squad.

For the 2012 season, KMR Kawasaki has fielded what is widely regarded as the strongest contingent of riders yet to compete for the team, having signed Michael Rutter and Kirk Jamison to ride at the Isle of Man TT Races and North West 200 respectively.

The signing of Rutter was seen as a terrific coup for the team, and Farquar also had the added satisfaction of landing the signature of veteran rider Jeremy McWilliams.
