Dunlop tests Relentless Suzuki

Michael Dunlop tested a Relentless by TAS Suzuki last week at Kirkistown but is still no closer to being able to confirm his 2011 plans.

TAS boss Philip Neill admitted Dunlop rode the bike but says no contract is on the table and that he’s still in talks with others including the team’s two 2009 riders, Cameron Donald and Bruce Anstey.

Dunlop said: “There is lots of talk and lots of offers but nothing is sorted yet but I don’t really want to do a deal for only three races and I’m still thinking I may run my own ship again.”
