It was nothing to do with the Arai the guy who changes the visor at pits never put the side cap on the helmet they left it dangling. If you know the system (which works for everyone else no problem) you know that the visor being wobbly when he went to stop was him doing that himself out of anger or whatever the reason he himself fully yanked up the visor which when you have the sideplates off will dislodge that end of the visor. Im not criticising him to much as im a huge fan but on RX7V helmets if the side cap is damaged or not fitted correctly and dangling about on its tether tapping at the helmet 100000 times a second you rip it off and forget about it and keep the visor in its locked or fog opened latch gap setting which is achieved by pushing the visor open lever up once to allow it to cam out into the fog position which again still locks the visor in place even if the end of the visor is totally dislodged on that side. It was the pit guys fault buy Michael has over reacted to the noises and never needed to stop just pull the visor shut over the opener lever arm and rip the sideplate off. Hope this explains how it all works. Its just unfortunate tbh

​@@radicalrick9587yeah see the older original RX7 lids i think they were the first helmet to ever have the chin guard and netting bit around them that stopped the air rush under the helmet. One of my favourite lids ever was the old original Quantum F, i done everything great and because it was near enough round it felt like a bowling ball was a nice lid.. It was bad for what you say though it had too big a gap between the mouth guard and your neck so would naturally want to go upwards at the front round about 160mph. These days that aint happening on a top end lid they are better fitted at the forehead and less break in movement in the modern foams and general aero has eradicated it mostly. Even helmets around the £250 mark you wont get it rising on you unless you got the wrong size shell or cheek pads too small. Every new helmet i get i make sure it feels like it will give me a slight headache the first time. They all give out a good 10% on the first use

Arai are the best helmets. Forget that shoei shite. The new visor system is brilliant but more suited to road riders. Nobody has ever had this issue with the “old” system. But the old system wasn’t good for road riders. That’s the way it is now. Unless you have the new system helmet you have absolutely no idea what I’m talking about. So many negative helmet comments. Obviously by ignorant people. The new system is brilliant but it wasn’t designed to be a 20 second TT pit stop visor swap. As mentioned it’s easier to swap helmets and even the old system wasn’t as quick or simple as a lid swap.

Yeah, I think he's got a few more strings to his bow than "just hovering around 4th & waiting" FFS. That kind of approach only makes any sense if you're looking at a straightforward circuit race where everyone sets off at the same time together, and can see what's going on around them. These guys on the TT course are racing against the clock first and foremost. They aren't always aware of exactly where everyone else is, or who's losing or gaining seconds here and there. Hickman pulled off an insane lap record around the course last year...and it wasn't only a lap record, he had various records at different points around the clock AND clocked the highest speed on the course. This course ain't Snetterton, bro. You aren't in Cadwell anymore. This course is a whole different ball game. A game where Dunlop and Hickman are both at the very top.

He never closed the visor to locate the brass dowel. If you know this system you know that you need to close it briefly to fully locate both sides before putting the caps on. Even putting the caps on hes not hung the top and pressed the bottom just a whack😂 The guy would have messed up anyone who let him near their own helmets day that day. He was paid specifically to fit that and knows the system but just ignored the lot

sounds horrible with the teathered side caps and feels footery if you try to overfit them. If you are used to just roughly chucking them on where you think they might line up then physically shut the visor it auto-locates. You can actually be way out and it still locates if you shut the visor. From then you hang the top of the sidecap up first it self locates and hangs the sideplate at the right place for you to press the bottom into the phsical lock. If learned properly its brilliant, if you dont learn it and the type of person that gets annoyed when they hear plastic noises and tries to force stuff on before reading the instructions then any quick release system isnt for you.

I subscribed to the LIVE Pass today. Really disapointed with the Camera Coverage of the races. Overuse of the Helicopter shots, pretty bad choices of camera placement in general, in short, worse than previous years I can remember. If a Heli Cam is cheaper for you than a certain number of well placed Track Side cameras, then next year it will cheaper for us to not pay any subscription at all ... (That camera placed at the apex of Bottom of the Barregarrow is a potential danger if for same reason it collapses or falls onto the road right in front of the riders, just saying ...)

theres some footage of the pit guy he completely forgot to go back to that side hes put the visor over looking at the side he forgot, then went directly to the other side and secured that, then basically hung that other sideplate on and slapped it. Hes not even bothered lining that side up. Bit ridiculous tbh especially as he had one job. You know that Arai system and know how it works hes basically done the motions to fit it all as one rather than individual sides, then rather than do what you need to do when fitting it all as one quickly and physically shut the visor so it self-locates.. hes basically not done that part and started fitting it a side at a time and forgot about the other side😂 The guy knows the system too so no idea why hes chose to deviate

It makes me sick every time I watch it, the utter frustration of all that sublime brilliance and work to be lost. The Dunlop's have road racing in the DNA. I hope Michael gets the second Superbike race and maybe the Senior, he deserves it, even with the incredible racers at the IOMTT he still has that little bit extra. I'm a fast biker but I'm in awe of this man, his Dad, Uncle and brother would be proud he keeps the Dunlop name on the leader board.

🏍️ In My Dream 🇮🇲 I had a dream that That I was riding on the Isle of Man I was in a race And I was keeping pace, with the leaders I was holding my own I couldn’t believe the speed And how they took the corners Like flat out The bike I was on was a beauty And she was oh so fast The throttle response was incredible And I swear she knew where to go To help me find that fine line She had some spirit Like a great horse She was dialed in perfectly And she was saving some for the end of the race All my trust was in her Cause at times Everything was a blur She took me home I didn’t win the race But she kept up the pace With the greatest riders ever Even though it was only a dream It was quite a scream

i sell the things ive only had three back in total for damaged mechanisms since the RX7V came out 😂 All three admitted they force fitted it before learning how it works. If you broke 3 back to back you offically on your own broke more than Scotlands 4th biggest helmet outlet hahaha Congrats🎉 I do know what you mean though as far as how it looks so footery and the teathered side caps ting against the helmet so it has a distinct "annoyance" to it shall we say. However you are missing what a lot of others do in that you dont need to fully locate the visor on refitment you can just put it roughtly over where the red dot is near the brass pin and simply pull the visor down and it automatically self locates. From there you push the side caps on from the top so they will slide about briefly as long as you are applying pressure at the top they will find home and you can hear and feel it, from there you simply press the bottom of them quickly and it will automatically click the lock in and the lever then shoots back out. Very easy but i do appreciate what people are saying about it being footery feeling and sounds horrible

I've always worn Arai because they have a great safety record and , to be frank, Im a little superstitious about changing brands. But hand on heart while the mechanism for changing visors is simply a bit of a pain for me, its too fiddly to be relied on in a TT race, the previous mechanism was better than the current one when the side pods didnt need to pop off (check out Joey's visor change for his Formula One 2000 win) . As many have mentioned a change of helmet seems to be a more reliable approach. It'll be interesting to see what Michael does in the rest of the races. After that, I hope he wins 'em all.
