Get on board with 2017 Isle of Man senior TT race winner Michael Dunlop.

The Northern Irishman raced the all-new 2017 Suzuki GSX-R1000 to victory in the Isle of Man TT’s most prestigious Senior race for the Bennetts Suzuki team and we can offer this video courtesy of the Isle of Man TT organisers.

Dunlop raced in New Zealand for the first time earlier this year, impressing with his easy-going style.

Dunlop’s best lap at the Isle of Man this year was 132.903mph.

The Senior TT – which was restarted after a red flag – saw Dunlop lead from the start after making some set-up changes to his new GSX-R1000 Superbike. He had pulled out a lead of two seconds by Ramsey, and extended it to three seconds at the Bungalow, before posting a standing-start lap of 132.292mph. He then set the best lap of the race on lap two, with a speed of 132.903mph.

After the pit-stop, Dunlop managed his lead at the front, controlling the gap to Peter Hickman in second place, eventually taking the win by over 13 seconds.

Dunlop had been strong on the all-new machine every time he went out, topping the qualifying times despite the bad weather and lack of track time around the 37.73-mile Mountain course. He was then leading the Superbike race before retiring with a technical issue, although he still set the fastest lap of the race.

He recorded a sixth-place finish in the Superstock race – despite just one lap of practice and a lack of set-up time hampering his performance – but took his 15th TT victory in the event-closing Senior race.
