These guys are amazing. The focus and reflexes to be able to do this has to be quite rare. It is a bit of a long video but it was hard for me to stop watching it. 17 min lap!

Muy grande huevos!
DAYUM! That was fun just watchin!

If a house cat walks out; game over.
Buddy and I built a car that got him the 300 club.

340 mph, 2 inches off the ground.
After watching that you could cut a lock washer off my butt that would hold a Harley together.

How did he get those very large gold balls on that bike?

That looks like a coffin on wheels to me!!
If he laid that bike down only a sponge would be needed to clean up the road.
Or you get to experience flight without wings.

There's only two walls you have to worry about at the Isle of Mann TT...the one on the right and the one on the left - Guy Martin

IOM TT is on my bucket list; I'd love to go.
I'm not interested in going race speeds when there's no place to fall. Forget it.

I have a good motorhead friend that goes to that race every other year. Says it's a great time.
Isle of Man TT is badazz. Those guys are a combination of talented, fearless and a little crazy. Don't see how they sit on the bikes with balls that big.

Regular Irish Road Racing is possibly more extreme than IOM TT.



twofish
2', 200 mph...more fun w/o wheels.



On a 600cc Honda, of all things.... Dang.



Reading further, it's apparent he's not at 200...
144HP, traction control, and engine rebuilds roughly every 1k miles...

Isle of Man has resulted in not everyone making it to the finish line quite a few times. Those guys are a rare blend of talent, courage, and f'n crazy.



I think this one's even better... Note the couple times one sees a speed wobble IN THE CORNER!! That, and a few wheelies IN THE CORNER!!

NO fear, HUGE balls.... Amazing racers..
