Michael Rutter on board the Ducati Panigale V4 Speciale - PART 1

[@asp5993]

Now I understand the saying "you only crash once at the TT"

[@emilyw3192]

[@rattusnorvegicus4380]

Plenty of riders have crashed more than once at the TT and survived.

Guy Martin would have been doing about 150-160mph when he came off in 2010

[@ianmacfarlane1241]

@Bilal Khalid You "bet they weren't going that fast"? Doesn't appear that you know ANYTHING about the TT. It's a time trial (although the TT stands for Tourist Trophy) so the racers will be going at 90 - 95%*of what's possible at any given time - no one is 'hanging about' at the TT. Look beyond the top 6, perhaps down to the top 30 - 40, and you'll still see racers putting in phenomenal lap times. Lesser bikes, smaller privateer teams, and less skill perhaps, but no one is going slowly. The margins are tiny, and occasionally riders will simply be 'lucky' - check out Keith Amor's Supersport crash (circa 2012 - I'm not sure of the year off the top of my head) he slides somewhere around 80 - 100 metres while miraculously managing to hit nothing - a kerb or a wall could have seen a bad accident. Or check out Connor Cummins legendary 2010 crash at the Verandah - how he survived is anyone's guess. Going further back, how about Milky Quayles crash (roughly 2003 or thereabouts) - you'll wonder how anyone could live through that. There are literally dozens, possibly hundreds, of crashes at the TT where luck played a massive part - and to dare suggest that "they weren't going that fast" is offensive to say the least. You've no idea what you're talking about - it's just that simple. *I'm certain that a number of people will say that the racers are going at 100% - I'm not sure about that - no one can ride on the ragged edge for an hour and a half, so they'll hold a few percent back at times. It's likely that 90 - 95% is unrealistic too - it's probably around 95%(+) but it's difficult to quantify. Suffice to say that they are tearing it up.

[@ianmacfarlane1241]

@Bilal Khalid That's very kind of you. I wouldn't like to promise that I am "right" about everything, but what I am right about is that no one is going slowly at the TT. When Valentino Rossi admits that he's not cut out for a motorcycle race, you KNOW that it's the toughest motorcycle race in the World. And I mean no disrespect to any other road event, (or Dakar to be fair.)

Raid bike verses race bike

[@pechorin1975]

@@54Rocketeer Obviously. The point is, the road bikes already seem insane, and they're slow in comparison to even the 600s.

[@lt1eg6]

I'd love to see the telemetry post lap to compare. It's mental how much ground is covered in the corners. 13 seconds over the span of 6 minutes is enormous .

[@54Rocketeer]

Again a race bike are you suggesting the 600cc road bike version is as quick as this machine? Also the riders not trying to prove anything it’s a demo lap only, hardly comparable. The times are irrelevant for comparisons, hopefully Ducati might turn up with a top rider this year, then we can make our observations

[@DonGH297]

@@pechorin1975 slow compared to the 600's is bit of An overstatement lol

Bu güne kadar izlediğim en kaliteli ve hızlı videolardan tek süper sport yarış motoru kategorisindeki tek başarılı video. Emek ve tutkunun yolların tozunu attıran Benimde sevdiğim model Ducati v4.. Tam bir efsane

[@enkiduo]

Overwhelmingly impressive, i hadn't considered the fun of getting plastered with bugs + into the sun on top of the usual TT insanity.

[@ethanf7719]

That windshield was clean when he started lol

[@agentofenhanced2428]

I just noticed lol

[@scottieray]

What I like about Rutter is off the ride he looks like a bank manager and not a 'racer'...impressive when you realize the speedo is not kph

[@felixraj973]

thanks for pointing that out I wasnt sure if it was in kph or mph. T

[@vcdc3]

6th gear and 184 must be mph

[@kaylis77]

Current top2 rider's face is like that...

[@philipstanley8142]

What is a racer supposed to look like?

[@divineblessing5712]

He's probably done that circuit thousand times. He know where imperfections in the road are.

[@rhoophoo5196]

Craziest ride ive ever been on,thanks.

[@schwarzseher9729]

I have to say Ducati was never my favourite bike,but this thing is the Best bike i have seen ever ever.The speed of this thing is unbelivable.The Sounds is is from an other World,sounds soo goood.And the elecronics and dumpers are working extreme superb.Everything perfect on this bike!!!! It is absulute worth its Price!And the driving is 1st Class League!!!!!!!

[@serdrey3257]

insects: Humans are damn slow Ducati: Hold my --- mph

[@sastry85]

no mosquitoes were suffered during the shooting of this film.

[@alexmorgan3435]

His mpg wasn't very good.

[@sk2283]

@Yangosu It was obviously a JOKE FFS !

[@sk2283]

Maybe, but who is going to complain about MPG when you are going 180 mph !! 😀👍🏻

[@patthewoodboy]

@Yangosu you dont get irony do you

[@JamesMiller-sx3qc]

My 50cc scooter had a "race" exhaust on it before I got it so I had to jet it up for it to run without bogging down so it does 6mpg

[@LibinTom-Vlogs]

Kitna deti hai ?? 😁

[@sk2283]

Wow, I had respect for Rutter before this but damn, man that ride on an 'out the showroom' Ducati V4 just proves his talent - and how bloody amazing the new V4 ducati really is

[@stevepowell3623]

Too right watched him for years proper rider and a proper gent too ,

[@sk2283]

Yep, it’s always interesting to see him at Donington on a magazine bike test pushing well under 1:40 on a stock road bike when loads of races on race bikes are high 140’s 😀🤛 he is just fast and class

[@iiredeyeiiredeye1569]

S K yeah Rutter is one of the very best road racers. Never quite had the breaks on the circuit, but out on the roads the guy is a legend.

[@sk2283]

iiredeye iiredeye yep, he almost won the BSB title with Honda but it was a difficult last part of the season for him as I remember - shame I think he deserved it that year.

[@sk2283]

I have to come back and watch this again every now and then, just out of this world, would I lend him my £30K Ducati for a blast ??? Nah I don’t think so ! I think Micheal won the Macau this year? But it was another crash fest and ended early. Epic rider

It's amazing that all that power going through that rear tire ,and it's only held on to the rim with 35 psi ,everything else on the bike is tightly bolted

[@creampotato1217]

Every time he turns right and left my head litterally follows😂🤣

[@f0zzy0zzy]

Taking corners at 170mph. Life goals.

[@FLiPenjoi1]

A bugs life... TT edition

[@techegg6431]

No one care about the bugs that die in his windshield XD

[@patrickspapens5497]

This thing almost rips a hole in time and space itself.

[@samshepard8234]

I never thought I'd die from the glare of the sun.

[@PolkCountyWIProgressive]

My body aches watching this. Some nerves of steel.

[@englishsteve1465]

Valentino Rossi when asked for his thoughts as he witnessed the TT for the first time in real life said "farging crazee, just farging crazee"

[@BMWSRR-yd6do]

And only rides the circuit as a "parade" guest - 45 mph...

[@patthewoodboy]

I love the fact it sounds like a bag of nails when Idling , but when at high revs its awesome :-)

[@rufmor1]

Michael: doing over 185 mph Speedo: Am I a joke to you?

[@ImperatorAvgvstvs]

Those moments when the sun blinds the rider are absolutely terrifying. I ride a motorcycle and I can't imagine taking those roads at half that speed.

[@WTomMeier]

Impressive skills. You make it look easy. Nice video - thanks.

[@jarosdav]

Awesome bike and rider. Love the F1 style tach going from green to yellow to red when hitting the rev limiter. Crazy riding.
