Tarran Mackenzie (born 29 October 1995,[1] often known as Taz)[2] is a professional road racer of solo motorcycles, based in Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire, England. During 2023 he contested the World Supersport Championship for Japan-based MIE Honda run by Midori Moriwaki,[3] winning his first world championship supersport race after continuing to ride on a wet track with dry tyres, when competitors were losing time pitting for wheel-changes.[4] For 2024, he will continue with the same team in World Superbikes.[5]
Mackenzie won the 2021 British Superbike Championship at the final round in October 2021.[6] With an ambition to eventually compete at world superbike level, no full-season opportunities were available for 2022.
Mackenzie's British Superbike 2022 racing season started at the third event at Donington Park in mid-May, after missing the Silverstone and Oulton Park rounds with injury. Riding only partially recovered at Donington, he rode conservatively for points, finishing the races in tenth, sixth and eleventh, further hindered by arm pump for the first time in his career, due to excessive arm use when steering, to compensate for his inability to switch-direction using leg pressure on the footrests.[7][8][9]
Mackenzie's 2022 BSB season ended on 25 September with a crash at Oulton Park, when he fell at the chicane and slid across the track under an oncoming motorcycle, breaking his left femur.[10]
