Isle of Man TT: Michael Rutter confirmed on Honda RCV
Rutter made his debut on the MotoGP-derived machine at the Macau Grand Prix last November, finishing second behind Peter Hickman.
The veteran Midlands rider will compete under the Aspire-Ho Bathams Racing banner again in 2019 and will ride a BMW S1000RR in the Superstock class.

Rutter said: “The RCV is just an awesome machine and certainly the best bike I will probably ever ride.
