Michael Dunlop is flying off the island later for physiotherapy but should be back for Friday's Senior TT.
Dunlop had a heavy fall in Sunday's Superbike race. Although passed fit to ride, he has been suffering as a result of heavy bruising and wants to make sure he's fit for Friday's Blue Riband event.
He's now said to be returning to Northern Ireland for physio tonight.
