I will miss the Mugen bumper :(

But once it was damaged it's fate was sealed. Once the new bumper gets painted it will look the biz :twisted:

In the 4G 1.07 with a passenger, road tyres, and practically a whole tank of fuel. In the 5G my fastest lap ever was a 1.07 whilst riding solo, semi slicks, and at the end of a session with low fuel. No doubt my 4G will be a bit faster under the same conditions.

Yeah you can watch.
