Shinden 3 project preparation is now started in U.K.

It was a very tough schedule to make the shipping and move to UK immediately after completing the final domestic test in Japan.

The maintenance of the bikes will take place at the MUGEN Euro facility, as was the case last year.
The significant difference from last year is that the number of machines is doubled and therefore the maintenance time is also doubled.
The MUGEN mechanics are still suffering from jet lag after landing in England and immediately getting ready for the test on 21st and 23rd of May at Castle Combe.

There is a real concern that the test schedule will be adversely affected by the weather in England, but we are determined to do our best for the last practical Shinden 3 test before the race event.

I love the TT Zero class, they sound like Tie fighters when they wizz past!

Unfortunately it's almost certain to fall to bits. Couldn't he get a decent ride with anyone else that's in with a chance of winning?

Yes, I see JM has woke up and put in a decent lap time and I can't wait to hear that Norton in the flesh. Sounds evil.
