Australian ace David Johnson is to make his debut at the Classic TT.
The 31-year-old will ride for Team York Suzuki/Big Dog Classic Racing in the Motorsport Merchandise Formula One race.
Johnson is a regular at January's Phillip Island Classic Festival with a number of wins and podiums so is no stranger to the classic racing scene.
At the TT, the Adelaide resident has lapped the Mountain Course at 129.128mph and finished fourth in last year's Superstock race.
