Bryan Staring will keep Australia's presence on the MotoGP grid alive in 2013 after signing with the Go and Fun Honda Gresini team.
The 25-year-old has enjoyed sustained success in various categories.
Most recently, Staring competed in the FIM Superstock 1000 Championship for Pedercini Kawasaki and took wins at Aragon, Brno and Portimao. He would finish fourth at season's end.
Staring said a spot in the MotoGP field was a dream come true.
"Racing in the MotoGP class has always seemed a very remote, practically unattainable. Now that I have a real chance to race in this championship with Go & Fun Honda Gresini, it's is almost unbelievable," he told the MotoGP website.
"It's the greatest opportunity of my career and I will be giving it my best. I know I still have a lot to learn and I will put in all the effort it requires.
His seat in MotoGP continues Australia's three decade-long presence in the top echelon of motorcycle racing, a streak that looked dead when Casey Stoner retired at the end of the season.
Staring has previously won three Australian championships in the 125GP, Superbike and Supersport categories.
Go and Fun team manager, Fausto Gresini said Staring was the perfect fit for the new team.
"Bryan made his mark in the Superstock 1000 class winning three races and he certainly has a competitive spirit and lots of important goals to reach with our FTR-Honda," he said.
"I cannot wait to see him on track and working with our boys with whom, I believe, he will integrate very well."
Staring will ride alongside Alvaro Bautista, the Spaniard starting his second season on Gresini's Honda RC213V in 2013.
