On board Southern 100 Crash 2017 - James Field

Please Subscribe!! The 3rd lap consisted of me crashing out of 2nd place at Cross Four-Ways in the 600 C Supersport race and battling with Ben Shuttlewood.
The rider and bike were both OK.

That's real Road Racing ....glad to see it was a slow section and not one of the fast ones...cheers from Canada...

[@missydee6085]

Phew! I'm glad you're OK James. I was spectating at Billown when you came off, but I didn't know where you'd come a cropper until I watched this. It was bloody tense seeing you going through the fast sections: hoping it was gonna be one of the slow, 1st-gear right-handers that you & the Kwaka parted company. Best wishes for the remainder of the season mate & keep 'er lit! ;-)

[@Anthonyh2000]

Aw man, u were catching up and doing amazing! Great effort

[@mrgreen9388]

Loving that pass at 0:38👍

[@x1mkz338]

Lol same 😂

[@chicken6000]

you sir, are a god among men for having the balls to do this. I have only respect and admiration for you and your fellow riders. Good luck in the future races.

[@hogtied12]

I thought i was on the bike leaning at every corner, brilliant footage, well done

[@tommallon4052]

OOOOOO! Sparkles! I'm glad you and your bike are OK.

[@archetypex65]

👍 glad you were ultimately okay mate

[@seizedltd973]

Great ride mate, you're an absolute beast on the brakes! Unfortunate about the crash.. Hope you're okay and back on the bike!

[@seizedltd973]

Good luck for the next season James, hope it goes well for you! If i have the opportunity i definetly will! Stay safe mate.

[@JSBIRD69]

Glad you're safe! God bless you Son!

[@kontoname]

Great riding nontheless! Best of luck in the season.

[@leesuuton5083]

Got excited from his overtake ! So much easier following

[@luvyesmusic]

Yup, it's usually the slow corners that ruin a good day of fun.

[@damienmullan8880]

I think it was the drag on your huge steel eggs that brought you down, I salute you bro👍

[@Team-fabulous]

Bad luck, hope he's fine, some good lines but the road ends are always a high side trap. The Southern 100 is a fantastic track

[@twatters22]

Unlucky! Looked like you were flying!

[@TripAMD]

Had my heart pounding!

[@nfspunky]

Glad your ok buddy.

[@jhstony]

Was it too early on the gas out of that corner that made the back give way ? Great riding BTW

[@mikeyforester6221]

yeah it looked like it same as guy martins crash

[@JamesFieldYT]

Hi folks, not sure what YT has done to the video as the edit has gone all out of whack, will get on it to get it fixed asap. Please bear with me.

[@SAVE]

, will get on it to get it fixed asap :D

[@JamesFieldYT]

@@SAVE Haha I am trying! :)

[@shaneo46]

Have I seen you at any Irish race meetings? Recognize the bike, flying round that track with some really fluid ridin, keep er steady for the season now boss👍🏻

[@JamesFieldYT]

Thank you Shane. Yes I was, I did Armoy and Dundrod in 2017. Both brilliant events!

[@badgumby9544]

I got into track days in Florida when I was 64 years old. Always wanted to try t. There was one every month of the year there and very popular. GSXR 600 and R3. I never had the balls to go really fast. If you make a mistake on a road race motorcycle at speed your screwed usually. Nothing but respect for the people that ride Isle of Man and places like it. But they are fucking crazy.

[@mad4tarmac]

unlucky man..you were going well.

[@danielsan3681]

I'm sorry dude! :(

[@neilalcock9753]

It's not if it's when

[@adriantompson]

nice ride till crash.

[@dasermutigungs-zentrum436]

... overpaced, Baby, shit happens ... next time, ride save!!!

[@Shuggie1087]

It was all going so well Gutted James

[@jjthomas2297]

Rear end stepped out..can happen to the best of us..

[@youbob28]

There really is no other sport that pushes tire compound beyond conceivable reality. You can make an argument for top fuel drag racing and F1 I suppose but they are not turning as quickly and certainly not on such narrow sections of rubber.

[@immytweed4607]

Unlucky good riding

[@damienmullan8880]

So sad pal, smooth as fuck where did the grip go?? Slope on the tarmac? Drain lid? Fucking shame that was silky smooth my man!!! 👍👍👍👍

[@cubax599]

Looks like the rear grip was suffering. seems the other guy hooks up well out of corners. front end more sorted I suppose ?

[@JamesFieldYT]

The rear set up could certainly of been better, I was struggling most the season with the rear but we think we know the cause now. I think the crash was mainly down to lack of experience, I'm a newcomer to road racing and was a little wide, and I didn't account for the change in camber as a result of that. Always next year though! :D

[@Aywusgod]

@James Field Good luck, subscribed to the channel! I hope you'll get some good race footage this year :)

[@JamesFieldYT]

ayWusgod Thank you for subscribing! Certainly will be more videos from Oliver’s Mount, Southern and ManxGP.

[@rwbnatureadventure3876]

James Field you race Isle of Man?

[@JamesFieldYT]

Southern 100 is on the IOM, however if you mean the TT then no. I am entering the Manx GP this year which is on the TT course in August.

[@terrygraham4529]

Add traffic,taxi's, school bus'es,pedestrian's etc. Now that would be entertaining.

[@witekpitek1510]

Awesome ride anyway;)

[@frankhenryrygge2458]

Thank all higher gods,or what ever,,it was at one of the slower parts of the track,,so it was, i think the usual,hurtful,too leave the bed at morning,,but he leave the bed,,, you get a pretty ok glasfiber repairman,,as a roadracer,,thats a sideeffect ;) had been good too try,at your street courses,,,,,but as a circuit rider,i must just check how the price on dipers,in England/Irland ;)

[@aaronditchfield781]

Frustration can get the best of us, I'm assuming that's what happened here with the novice holding you up a lil bit ? I'd love a go though

[@angellotomic]

TC is off :(

[@danejurus69]

What country is this?

[@dadlohopton8932]

Isle of man

[@malcolmbarr2267]

Oh dear 😕

[@brandonc5965]

All the bikes that run isle of man need led tailight installed for riders behind them

[@twt3716]

When irish eyes are bleeding.

[@safrafikret]

Fukk, what a great run....

[@pezzyp1492]

Too much leaning and too quick to get back on throttle but Jamie already knows that glad your ok you have gigantic bollocks and I hope you enjoy racing for many years to come hats off to you sir

[@pezzyp1492]

*James fucking predictive text

[@bogey19018]

That sucks.

[@patsematary]

Ops....

[@Italliving]

Thats a slip and slide could be much worse

[@firejam78]

Oops

[@HJBounell]

You Knobber!

[@zippybungle236]

I waited two minutes for that shitty crash.

[@onekdw]

That's fucked up

[@akashkunte7444]

WASTED

[@will.s4611]

[@trillabp3971]

Accelerated on the white paint line. Thats what did it

[@londonroulette]

Can’t believe watching this video of 2:18 at 2:16 after keenly watching it, a tiny little low side. Very boring vid, but I always wish the riders the best.

[@wobbler6372]

Oh you wanted him dead . Kind of video

[@diegestive4167]

2.10 wasted of my life

[@wobbler6372]

What a stupid comment . Respect to the guy . Got some balls to do that
