Michael Dunlop said his Paton S1-R "never missed a beat" as he surged to his 24th Isle of Man TT win on Tuesday night.
The Ballymoney rider was a class apart as he won the Carole Nash Supertwin race by 27.6 seconds over Mike Browne.
Jamie Coward completed the podium, finishing just 2.2 seconds adrift in third.

There was no catching runaway leader Dunlop who now stands alone as the second most successful rider in TT history.
His 24th win edges him in front of John McGuinness (23), and closes him to within just two wins of record holder and legendary Uncle Joey Dunlop (26).
It could prove to be a historic week on the island, with Dunlop having another four races to try and equal or eclipse that record.
Tuesday night was a sweet victory for Dunlop, who lost out on a Supertwin win at last year's TT when his bike had mechanical problems when dicing with Peter Hickman who eventually claimed the victory.
Dunlop said: "We had a bit of a bee in our bonnet after last year. The bike stopped last year.
"We had an issue with the bike during this week, and the fella Andrea who actually builds the bike was to fly in on Sunday and his flight was cancelled.
"He had to drive for two days to get here, so fair play to him for doing that. The bike was fantastic, I didn't have to go full pelt.
"I just nursed it through the race. Andrea just told me what to do and the wee bike never missed a beat.
"It was nice to get the win because last year annoyed me."
Dunlop said: "The bike was incredible, and I was fortunate enough to have a lead where I could calm the bike down and see it home.
"The bike was a dream. We made a few changes, and I can't complain."
Dunlop was out of luck earlier in the day when he had to settle for second place in the RL360 Superstock TT.
Peter Hickman claimed an impressive win on his Monster Energy by FHO Racing BMW, finishing 23 seconds ahead of Dunlop, with Dean Harrison third.
It saw Hickman reach double figure wins at the TT and draw alongside legendary names including Giacomo Agostini.
"The Stocker has been working awesome all week. I did four laps in qualifying and that was enough. It always seems to work really well," Hickman said.
"It took me a while to get into it, but the bike worked so well. I can't thank Monster BMW and FHO Team for the job they did.
"I enjoyed myself on the last lap with a few wheelies and waving at the crowd. When you have that buffer you can just enjoy this place. It is just so cool to ride around."
On reaching 10 TT wins, he added: "It feels amazing. Double figures is unbelievable. It isn't a goal I set out to achieve, but to be mentioned in the same breath as names like Agostini is brilliant."
