Great vid, I have an FZ750 Race bike I am getting ready for next season (I'm 55) Would love to see more of the bike, pits, and friends. I love everything that goes with racing just as much as the actual racing. Cheers!!

Even up against bikes with more raw power, AFAICS, the handling advantage gives you the edge... I've had one of these for 22 years now kept mainly outdoors under a cover so it "went off" quite badly, and I was going to change it, but I realised I simply didn't want a different bike, so 15 months and about 700 quid later, It's a lot cleaner, all the gross problems and most of the little ones are completely solved, (properly!) and I'm just a tank clean and a respray away from being back on the road. Mine has T.Scott engraved on the engine, and it's top speed is beyond what the instrument can indicate. I wish I could find out what it's history was. I'm sure it must have been a "winner" in it's day, it sure has been a winner for me. It makes me look so good & competent that a policeman let me off after losing a chase to me, which I didn't know was happening. (Because when I give the "genocide" the beans, I don't look at the speedo or the mirrors, I'm trying desperately to look at tiny things in the far distance!) Now I need glasses, so my days of super speeding are over I guess, unless I can master contacts... I do ride a bit like this guy, take the same sort of overtaking opportunities, etc. (when I'm feeling feisty, and conditions are suitable) but he is way faster and lower and more competent than me. Can I ask, how stock is your bike? Do you get that angle of lean & speed on stock wheels and tyres?

Just found this mate, excellent stuff! I love the way you "done" some of those youngsters on obviously quicker bikes. That was a treat. Are your brakes up to it or is it just me? Seemed like you had to brake very early for the hairpin. I'm gonna watch the IOM one next.
