John McGuinness tweeting about the Mugen electric bike at IOM TT ZERO

The world et al is getting ready for the IOM TT ZERO race, and one of the people involved is John McGuinness riding for Team Mugen. Shows some up-close pics of the Mugen bike. It appears there are two of the bikes, and probably one is a backup bike. Our friends at Manzanita Micro were especially eagle-eyed to notice the green box in the background of one picture, indicating Mugen is using Manzanita’s chargers.
