With an impressive list of achievements under his belt, including victories at prestigious events such as the Supersport TT and Manx Grand Prix, Kneen's name became synonymous with speed and skill. In 2015, riding for Honda, Kneen showcased his exceptional talent at the Supersport TT.

But it wasn't just Honda that witnessed Kneen's prowess; Yamaha also had the privilege of having him represent their brand in 2011 during the thrilling Supersport TT.

Teaming up with Suzuki alongside Stephen Oates in 2009 for the Superstock TT event proved to be a winning combination.

The Steam Packet Races saw him astride both Kawasaki and Slick Perf Kawasaki bikes in different years – each time leaving spectators breathless as they watched him navigate treacherous terrains with ease. In 2017, riding BMW’s formidable machine during the Senior TT race cemented Kneen's status as one of motorcycling's finest talents.
