One of the top bikes to feature in the TT Zero is set to become a feature of the new TT exhibition coming to the Manx Museum.
Japanese firm, Mugen, presented one of their Shinden machines used in their 2019 campaign to Manx National Heritage to be displayed in the new motorsport gallery which is expected to open in 2022.
Due to Coronavirus restrictions, the bike is being stored securely in the UK waiting for the right opportunity to bring it to Douglas.
Manx National Heritage says Mugen were eager to ensure that the 'ground breaking' advances achieved in electric technology on the Isle of Man wouldn't be forgotten.
In October last year, the Department for Enterprise announced the TT Zero class - which started in 2010 - wouldn't be part of the schedule for the next two racing fortnights, saying running the clean emissions racing has become 'increasingly challenging'.
