Oh come on! If starting a twin is that hard, he should practise on his porridge.

Seen a few like that having gone across rain soaked grass and mud, tend to slide well and not get smashed but look like a swamp bike after remounting

A video , this one, but this thread seemed the most appropriate place to put it.
I watched it all the way through, one of the best I've seen in terms of an insight into a rider's eye view of a lap of the TT- the setting sun makes it fecking (even more) scary in places IMO
Also, a good view of the speed and violence you get these days with a modern over-the-counter 1000 sports bike too.

Just cued that up on the big tv in the lounge to watch ........ ta

Not bad for a parade lap on a road bike eh ?? :shock: :shock:

i have ridden the course at road speeds so have a very rough idea of where it goes over the years and the speed is mind blowing at bits where i thought "oh the walls will be here soon....woah"

Man that beemer loves to rear up! That thing/camera on the top of the screen bugged the shit out of me,I wanted to throw it away so I could see better. :lol:

An exercise in controlled violence.

It also shows,even with advances in technology,how the human eye deals so much better with situations of extreme contrast. The camera made those runs into the low sun nightmarish. I felt sick even watching.

Fast as fook. 8-)
