Barry, the one and only no. 7! I am from Germany, 65 years old and Barry was my hero in the 70th

[@greyhound3561]

Here in Australia the spectators all get together prior to the race and ride down to the track on Phillip Island from Melbourne`s outskirts, - the Barry Sheene memorial Run. Watching thousands of Aussie bikers taking part in an event dedicated to an English rider certainly gives you an idea of how much Barry was liked by all of Australia, He was a class act..

[@nickpollard6494]

A true sporting legend. 46 minutes of very interesting viewing. Thank you.

[@jimcox4728]

King Kenny Roberts and Barry Sheen the 2 best riders I have ever seen. But as a kid I watched Dick Mann he's up there to.

No money for tickets, we climbed over the fence to see those drivers as close as possible. i remember that day, we tried to get a signature from Barry. He was very friendly and gave all of us his sign. I was so proud and still i am. The man with the Duck and No.7. R.I.P.

I was obsessed,and had the chance to see and sit on the great barry sheen's bike,been a biker ever since,I'm 52 now.....a legend in all my memories

I rode my first bike a T250R Suzuki down to Brand Hatch and watched Barry ride his 500cc twin cylinder Suzuki in blue and white to Victory, on that day a real Hero came into my life and he has never left.

I have worked as a photographer on most Aussie racetracks, and I have come to pend time and chat to Barry many times as he also worked around the tracks in the 90's. I used to pinch his smokes which he bought on New caledonia !! Gave me a card one day of his manoir en queensland and said come over... To this day I regret not to have gone there !!

I was lucky enough to meet Barry and his father Frank a few times in his truck racing days. He was the works Daf driver. We were also running a Daf truck but in a different class. Barry would always come to see how our truck was gong, and offer advice on how to improve it. A true gent and practical joker. Sadly missed, but never forgotten.

[@kneeslider47]

When I was a baby, my father would watch all these races on ‘Grandstand’. Apparently he was confused by some noises I was making until he realised 1-year old me was mimicking a two stroke 500cc at full bore! And yes I’m a motorcyclist. Thank you Barry and Kenny.

[@Pizzpott]

As a wannabe biker in the early seventies an annual trip to Brands Hatch and the Transatlantic Trophy was a must, we went in a coach until 1976. As a biker in the mid seventies, from 1976 we all went on our bikes as we had all passed our tests by then. At one of these many meetings I saw Barry in his tent with his bikes, got his autograph on a programme. Still got Barry's autograph in a frame with his picture. He was my hero then and his picture and autograph as one of my most treasured possessions. I'm 61 now, still remember those days so clearly.

[@southendparaquest]

Legend. My first sporting idol. That bike, those leathers that number 7 epitomised the Seventies for me. I was only 5 and six when he won his two Championships and remember that massive poster of him on that Heron Suzuki, on my bedroom wall. We lost him far too early.

A super star if ever there was one, the playboy persona hid the most driven and dedicated racer, he lived to race. Most would never have ridden a bike again after Daytona, this guy was riding again 7 weeks later. I feel privileged to have been around when he raced. He was a bloody good comentator too.

[@kemposoefi]

Thank you very much for this fantastic upload! I first saw Mr. Sheene in the Dutch TT in 1977 (11 years old then). Of course it was fantastic that 'our' Wil Hartog won, but I have been a fan since! Died way, way too young. Be safe all.

Barry outshone most of the other heroes of the track in my formative years. I remember well the Silverstone race and the hospital visits. I was a dedicated Brut user, even though I would cough and sneeze my lungs up every morning. Seeing him back at Goodwood was a thrill and a pleasure. As a teenager I was jealous of his good looks and attraction to girls. He is still one of my greatest heroes to this day.

[@supertramp6011]

Absolute legend! Every British bloke wanted to be him back in the day, he was the common man’s hero. 👌RIP BAZZA, No. 7 Only James Hunt had that kind of charisma, I don’t even watch super bikes any more, there just isn’t the same buzz around it.

A wonderful video with so many memories and faces that I loved and admired. Good old Murry Walker, still with us at 97(ish). Damon Hill, as nice a person as you'll ever meet, and despite being an F1 World Champion, still star struck about being mates with Barry. I met Barry just once when I called by Frank's workshop at the hospital to collect a piston for a Bultaco scrambles bike. Barry was seven moths younger than me, but I had the impression he was younger as he weaved a trials bike through scaffolding outside the workshop. My memories of Barry vs Kenny Roberts was that Barry thought Kenny's style of 'squaring the corner' braking in deep and late, so he could lined up for the exit early and get on full power, slowed Barry who liked to carry speed right through the corner. I did not know that Barry had a gift for languages, or that Carl Fogarty's dad was that infamous back marker. A thoroughly enjoyable video, despite the sadness at the end remembering Barry's death all too early.

Out in practice at a wet Brands Hatch on a RD250LC production racer I was just going across the start finish changing up into top gear as Barry Sheen came past braking for paddock. He was on slicks on a wet track covered in rubber and aluminium from the F1 cars with skirts (remember them). He took Paddock as if on rails, total confidence total control. He was doing a photo "op" with his new Yamaha, straight from Japan with no paint on it. The pics were in Motorcycle News on the Wednesday. It was the year he had his major crash at Silverstone. Gone but not forgotten Barry, thanks for the memories.
