150mph legally! And other fun things to do on the Isle of Man, when it's not TT

[@joan4906]

This channel is BRILL!

[@HoonTV]

Love these videos Dave 👍🏻

[@bobvincent5921]

Thanks. I thought that this IOM course run was the first since you retired racing on it and it shows how much you enjoyed it.

[@runeburdahl7141]

As a former downhill skier and amateur motorcyclist it is fascinating to see your line choices.. I would call it to "take height" before turns which is what you were doing iin the video. Cheers from an old man in Norway.

[@ManxAndy]

Evening Dave……interesting vlog…..Thankyou, you’ve cheered up my Monday evening 👍🇮🇲👌 ps great to get driving tips around the TT course….from a travelling marshal….👍👌🇮🇲

[@TregTube]

Lovely video of our fair little isle 🇮🇲 Hope to see you again this year!

[@robbjones6012]

Excellent as usual,thanks Dave.Everything stops to watch your vlogs.repeatably, rgds. from FL.USA.

[@stevesanelli90]

That’s incredible fun Dave & a little crazy too! You & the National unlimited speed are an awesome inspiration ⭐️ Thank you showing IOM in a normal “ahem” environment 🤙 Cheers

[@stephanpauly4889]

Heeey!! Finally we see a glimpse of your "new" Tuono! 🎉 It looks good and sounds even better! It looks like it goes really good to. 😅 Super video again Dave!! 👍

[@stekwack]

Love the howl from the tuono on the over run, sounded ace. Dont forget about Murreys motorcycle museum when you go over.

[@timclough3009]

Cheers Dave 👍

[@MrPmunson123]

Great video Dave, my favourite piece of road fantastic island 😎😎😎👌👌👌

[@cecilwilson5442]

Brilliant stuff real world thinking about the time in the island ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️

[@kawi704racing]

Looks like a fabulous place.

[@obsession_engineering]

A little slice of petrol head paradise

[@RussTnut]

Great video Dave, as always. Reminded me of when I was going over the mountain flat out on my NC35 when a guy on a Busa with a side car (with a wheelchair inside)and a misses on the back, overtook me like I was in reverse 😮😂

[@TwoDavesRacing]

That onboard on the open roads was scary as hell mate 😬😮

[@obsession_engineering]

And that was pretty sensible 😉

[@TwoDavesRacing]

Show off 😉😝

[@bigjam8429]

Nice one davey can’t wait for tt 24

[@stephenbeamis1151]

That Tuono sounds awesome good to see a bit of the island you don't normally see ice cream looks awesome as well 😂

[@obsession_engineering]

Best ice cream in the world!!

[@jdahack7367]

Love the Tuono. That looked a little crazy.

[@christopherfaulks6594]

Sounds fantastic bet you enjoyed that😊

[@crumblymal8479]

Nice one what a place only been once and it was TT week that was for sure faster than I could even contemplate doing in the nationals pretty damned impressive 😉👌👍

[@kevinslater150]

Keep the great vlogs coming Dave , Kev the Pirelli plumber 😂

[@obsession_engineering]

Get back to work Kev 😉

[@jonhewitt3]

I've never been so fast in a hire car from Ramsey to Douglas, heading down to Creg-Ne-Baa those banks make the road feel very narrow!

[@davidford2169]

Good video wavy Davy.. 👍🇬🇧

[@MichaelSmith-mc8bd]

Dave, I could swear I could hear you giggling on the approach to Windy corner.😊

[@obsession_engineering]

You probably could 😂

[@andrewlucas6214]

What a bike, what a place! I hope at some point you do a buyers guide for Tuono v4. I had a first gen 1000 v4 and loved it. I let it go due to horror stories of engine failures. Would love another.

[@obsession_engineering]

It's on the list 😉

[@mattmid7012]

Great video Dave. Some great places to visit. I think we do need to know who had the best sim car time though and whether you got into double figures in the snooker. I would have thought they'd have at least shut the mountain road for you being TT royalty and all that!

[@obsession_engineering]

I let Martin do more sim laps, because I'm very kind... That's my excuse for him being faster 🤣 I'm sure I potted something at snooker, does the white count?

[@mattmid7012]

@@obsession_engineering 🤣 It does. He was probably very pleased for you each time as well.

[@Fras_H]

You've done that before ;)

[@garionfletcher4344]

Could you link the sim centre website as i can't seem to find it and are visiting next week, would love to try this

@@obsession_engineering thanks, off there tomorrow

[@irisgardener4141]

Stunning scenery! The Tuono on the Mountain road, whilst open, is a match made in heaven. What were the conditions on the day you did the onboard?

[@obsession_engineering]

Pretty good weather, dry, no big winds and a nice temperature. Ideal riding

[@jonathanmackie4884]

Really good motorbike fun on this one. I thought I recognised the guy in the Sim Centre, isn't he one of the Travelling Marshalls for thr TT? Think I've seen some videos he's done.

[@obsession_engineering]

Yes, he's a TM and certainly knows his way around

[@DeathsStalkerRVT]

look really fun riding on the mountain coarse 😁With no speed limit what was the average speed were the cars traveling around there?

[@obsession_engineering]

Most folks still do 60, but a few enjoy the privilege a little more

[@grahamsmith8122]

Need a bit more fluid in your front brake reservoir Dave.... Love the isle of Man, was marshalling at the Manx this year but it will be my last, sadly. IoM government couldnt run a bath!

[@obsession_engineering]

Thanks for your time in orange, we couldn't race without you and the other marshalls

[@mikecain565]

You maybe can go as fast as you like, The boys in blue have a list of other things that they can pull you over for, Reckless driving/ endangering other peoples life,s , The list goes on, Enjoyed that vlog, A ex Manxman that still after nearly 20 years racing around there, still know the lines,, Bumps might have got bigger/smaller, You can see through the corners more than before, Hence the higher speeds, Scared the s--t out of my nephew 3 years ago in my old focus with where i placed it when the road was clear, 🙂🙂

[@obsession_engineering]

Knowing the lines definitely helps! And you're right about the rules, hence me trying to give people reasonable space and staying away from the double whites

[@ianmorris1265]

Great Stuff as usual Dave. Did it make you reconsider your decision to stop racing round there, even if ever so slightly? Keep up the great work!

[@obsession_engineering]

I made the right choice, still love a lap though

[@ianmorris1265]

So did I under similar circumstances a long time ago but got another go 5 years later that made me 100% realise I'd done the right thing by stopping when I did 👍🏻🍀

[@grachoderunwiderstehlichen]

aaaahhh , billiard/snooker plus moped's ... catwalk performance too ?

[@emmadixon3585]

Hi Dave, what’s it like going up the mountain compared to the actuality race,

[@obsession_engineering]

Slow! With open roads you just can't commit on entries like I would if I knew nothing was coming the other way

[@emmadixon3585]

I was hoping to get the tt experience and pretend to be an ace, when I go over in April,for my first time with my bike , sounds like I will need to keep fantasy to my self, great videos keep them up,love the behind the scene stuff

[@finktank11]

Did you have some cake? Asking for the Marshals International Liberation Front (Just Call Me Loretta) ;0)

[@obsession_engineering]

I may have substituted for the ice cream 😂

[@petercarr6599]

You can certainly ride a bike mate 😊

[@kevin_heslip]

Will people from your team be racing there next year?

[@obsession_engineering]

I'm sure I'll be involved in something at TT, and Martin is going back
