Michael Dunlop confirms Suzuki MotoGP test
Dunlop was granted the opportunity for a one-off test on the machine by Suzuki following his success at the Isle of Man TT in 2017, when he won the Senior TT for his 15th triumph around the Mountain Course on the all-new GSX-R1000.

The Ulster rider will participate in a private test this week before the first official MotoGP shakedown of the year gets under way at Sepang next Sunday.
