Organisers and fans may get a clearer indication of Martin’s intentions for the remainder of the season if he competes in next week’s Southern 100 races on the Isle of Man.
Among the riders who will be on the grid on 10-13 August are Yorkshire’s Ian Hutchinson and Ballymoney man Michael Dunlop, who dominated last month’s Isle of Man TT Races.
They will come up against Kawasaki pilot Peter Hickman, the winner of a Superbike race at the 7.4-mile circuit last year, and the 2015 hat-trick hero, Fermanagh’s Lee Johnston.
Other confirmed entries include William Dunlop, double North West 200 Supertwins victor Ivan Lintin, Silicone Engineering Kawasaki rider Dean Harrison and New Zealander Bruce Anstey.
Anstey has held the absolute lap record for Dundrod since 2010 at a speed of 133.977mph.
