BINGLEY'S Ian Hutchinson had to settle for second place as Northern Ireland's Michael Dunlop completed a 'big bike' double on the Isle of Man by securing the second Senior TT success of his career.
The 27-year-old was a start-to-finish winner, beating the 'Bingley Bullet' by 31 seconds to take his overall tally of victories to 13.
The Hawk BMW rider set a new race record and set an absolute lap record of 133.962mph on his second lap.
The win means he is now one win behind Hutchinson and Mike Hailwood
He said: "If I knew I was so close to 134mph I would have pushed even harder.
"I was peeved after Wednesday and really wanted this one. It's a fantastic bike and the crowd was massive out on the course.
"I wanted to show the other boys what I was made of today."
Morecambe's John McGuinness was third, 33 seconds behind runner-up Hutchinson, who had clinched a hat-trick for the second year in a row earlier in the week.
Hutchinson said: "It's been a great week, so I can't complain. The Tyco BMW bike was amazing."
Bradford's Dean Harrison was fourth, Bruce Anstey fifth and Conor Cummins sixth.
