Cameron Donald will help celebrate Suzuki's 50th year at the Isle of Man TT by completing a lap of the course on Loris Capirossi's Moto GP bike.

The double TT winner will complete the demonstration lap following the Senior TT race on Friday, 11 June.

Capirossi rode the Suzuki GSV-R800 for his 300th Grand Prix race at the opening round of the 2010 world championship in Qatar in April.

Capirossi himself will also take part in Suzuki's celebrations.

He will lap the Mountain Course on a GSX-R1000 shortly before Donald's lap.

The 37-year-old Italian made his debut in the 125cc class in 1990 this will be his 21st season at world championship level - an unprecedented achievement.

Suzuki first appeared at the Isle of Man TT races in 1960.
