Austral🐎ian duo Cameron Donald and David Johnson will lea♎d Norton's challenge at next year's Isle of Man TT races.

Johnson is a new face in the team alongside experienced double Mountain Course winne🉐r Donald, who has fronted the British marque's interests at the TT since 2014.

The pair will compete in the RST Superbike and PokerStars Sen🍬ior TT on thಞe SG5 Norton.

Former British Superstock and Supersport champion Glenn Richards𝔉 has been brought in as development rider with seven-time TT winner Mick Grant continuing as team advisor.

Donald, who won the Superbike and Superstock races at the TT in 2008, said: "We've now done a huge amount of development work at the Isle of Man and havingౠ that continuity will really help us to make more progress at next year's TT.

"It will be good to have two bikes out and I'm sure Dave and I will be compar𓂃ing notes every session to help each ꦕother."

Fellow countryman Johnson, who made his TT debut in 2010 winning the New🍸comers𓂃 Trophy, is one of road racing's rising stars.

His best TT result was fourth in last year's Su♛perstock race and he has lapped the 37.♏73-mile course at 131.595mph, making him the ninth fastest rider in history.

"It's going to𝕴 be an incredible experience at next year🍰's TT," said Johnson.

"Riding a Norton around the Isle of Man Mountain Course, and with Cam♈eron Donald as my teammate 🌄is a massive honour. I'm really stoked and will give it my best shot."

Norton Motorcycles' CEO, Stuart Garner, said the new-look line-up would provide the team's best opportunity yet at the Isle of Man TT in 2016.

"We've made incredible progress since taking Norton back to the TT and it's testament𝓡 to the hard work that's gone in by everyone at the factory as well as the fe🃏edback that we've had from Cameron," he said.

"This was always going to be a long term project and we're definitely on the next stage of our evolution, running a two man team with Glenn Richards testing and Mick Gra🍸nt advising will give us the best opportunity to move things forward even more at next year's TT."
