Roads: Michael Dunlop makes Tyco BMW debut

Michael Dunlop made his first appearance in the Tyco BMW colours he’ll campaign this year in a test at Kirkistown on Monday.

The 15-time TT winner spent the day lapping the Northern Irish circuit ahead of the first race of the 2018 roads season at the Cookstown 100 this weekend.

Dunlop will race in Tyco colours in the superbike classes at this year’s international road races after signing a late deal to join the Moneymore-basesd squad earlier this month.  He’ll also race a BMW S1000RR under his MD Racing banner in the Superstock class as well as a CBR600RR in the Supersport category.
