Ballymoney's William Dunlop has said there are no excuses at this year's Isle of Man TT as he has been given the tools to win races by Shaun Muir's Milwaukee Yamaha team.

Dunlop, who will partner Ramsey's Conor Cummins, switched to the R1 after years with the Wilson Craig Honda team, who will run Cameron Donald this time out.

"I've won at the North West and at the Ulster, but the TT is the big one. There is a lot of pressure on now but I wouldn't have taken the ride if I didn't think I could do the job," said Dunlop, speaking at the TT media launch.

"It's a bit different having all the mechanics around but I've got the tools for the job now so there's no excuses."
