Whilst fellow perennial Dundrod, Mountain Course podium challenger Johnston switches to a GSX-R 1000 Suzuki mount for action at New Zealand’s most famous roads course.

Following in the footsteps of Guy Martin and Michael Dunlop, attention a plenty will be placed upon Johnston and Cummins in December at the final round of the Suzuki Series.

It’s going to be interesting to see how quickly both can adapt to the narrow, tight, twisty roads of the Cemetery Circuit.

Prior to concluding their roads seasons next month, both will be keen to end 2017 international roads wise in style at the Macau Grand Prix, aboard Padgetts Honda and East Coast Racing HP4 Race BMW mounts respectively.
