William Dunlop has put pen to paper on a deal wiꦯth Shaun Muir's Milwaukee Yamaha team that will see him compete in the North West 200, Isle of Man TT, the Ulster Grand Prix and the Britis💧h Supersport Championship in 2013.

The Ballymoney rider, son of the later Robert Dunlop an𝄹d brother of Michael, comes to Milwaukee Yamaha after a particularly successful season on the roads, a campaign that included a podium finish in the Supersport TT race.

Delighted to have secured a deal for 🃏2013 long before the start of the season, Dunlop is looking forward to jumping aboard 'his favourite' Yamaha YZF-R6, while he has high hopes of a victory🎀 challenge in the Superbike TT too.

"Joining a team like Milwaukee Yamah𒉰a means that on the roads all I have to think about is about going as fast as possible. We will be able to do lots of testing able to get up to speed before the first🐼 race, so this is a great team to get involved in," said Dunlop.

"I would not have taken the ride if I did not think I could win a TT, especially on the Yamaha R6 which is my favourite bike to ride but there's no r🍎eason why I can't challenge for a win on🍸 the Superbike too.

"Racing in Supersport is going to be different because of th🦂e new tyres but I think I can do a good job. We have all the tools and I am looking foꦆrward to it."
