Honda’s Nicky Hayden plans to compete in the Suzuka 8-Hours in Suzuka, Japan, on August 3.

That’s the word from Hayden’s manager, Steve Dicterow of International Racers.

Dicterow said Wednesday that Hayden has not done any testing directly related to the 8-Hours. But that shouldn’t be a problem, Dicterow said, since Hayden is now familiar with Suzuka Circuit and is very familiar with the Honda RC51 Superbike.

Hayden’s teammate for the 8-Hours has not been announced, but reports that Nicky may team with younger brother Roger Lee Hayden are “rumormill-type stuff,” according to Dicterow.

Another American with tentative plans to do the Suzuka 8-Hours is Jason Pridmore, a regular with Endurance World Championship contenders Phase One Suzuki. Pridmore could possibly be paired with current Attack Suzuki AMA teammate Josh Hayes.
