That's pretty close to how I ride my bike right now. WOT, at least on the highway. I wonder how long it will be until electric bikes compete with these guys?

Doc
great. Zero is there and making a stand. with the standard bikes ! liike how they are able to "tune" them though. Would love to hear the new riders ask for more of the line speed .... get me their settings ...

That is a great video, DKW, but I could do without the crashes.

If you want to see what it is like to ride the entire 37-mile IOM course from a bike-mounted camera, you need to watch "V-4 Victory" which was filmed about 20 years ago on Joey Dunlop's Honda during the race.
