No room for error- Onboard a TT bike - darrsi - 20-03-14 I think it helps if you're a little bit insane. I found it hard to concentrate just watching it, i kept looking for hazards. :lol http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2585548/The-terrifying-video-reveals-just-like-ride-motorbike-Isle-Mans-famous-TT-course.html Re: No room for error- Onboard a TT bike - Lez72 - 20-03-14 I never tire of watching on board TT footage. Brave brave men and women. Its awe inspiring really. It just doesn't look possible. Re: No room for error- Onboard a TT bike - ChristoT - 20-03-14 I so want to do that. ![]() Re: No room for error- Onboard a TT bike - mickvp - 21-03-14 darrsi - you dont need to look for hazards when your on a TT bike, as there is only one hazard. EVERYTHING :rollin Re: No room for error- Onboard a TT bike - chris.biker - 21-03-14 I can only imagine that it is done by knowing the circuit of by heart and then a leap of faith that the marshals have kept it clear and clean. Re: No room for error- Onboard a TT bike - Dead Eye - 21-03-14 At those speeds there just isn't enough time to see and judge any approaching corners... you just have to know them before you get there and have damn good muscle memory after significant practice... at least imo Re: No room for error- Onboard a TT bike - darrsi - 21-03-14 Average lap record 131.671mph, plus hitting 200mph in places, that's just totally impressive madness. :eek Re: No room for error- Onboard a TT bike - mr self destruct - 21-03-14 (21-03-14, 12:58 AM)Dead Eye link Wrote: At those speeds there just isn't enough time to see and judge any approaching corners... you just have to know them before you get there and have damn good muscle memory after significant practice... at least imo They say knowledge of the Nurburgring is worth 50bhp, I wonder how much knowledge of the TT course is worth? At these speeds I reckon nothing. Just the difference between finishing and crashing. Re: No room for error- Onboard a TT bike - kawasutra - 21-03-14 Holy crap! Amazing. Thanks for sharing!
