Respect for all these gladiators ! These are legendary pilots ! Watching this gives a perfect example of why I’m happy Dean “the mean” Harrison left DaoRacing! I’m exited for Dean’s next TT on his new team!

@@pablobarrera7613 yeah man agreed. It's better than watching Moto GP any day of week. Don't get me wrong they're great but there's something about riding in life and death conditions that just hits differently, especially for the everyday commuter like myself. These guys are the real deal!

[@mrbismarck]

Can I ask you don't put the result in the first couple lines of the video description - makes it hard to avoid spoilers when I share the video with other people. Thanks!

[@elemar5]

I always wonder why this doesn't get as much coverage as the IOM TT.

[@theant9821]

The TT is the golden goose. The Nw200 produces great racing but its not as special a circuit Joey Dunlop said he preferred the UGP because it was more of a riders circuit. The triangle really is quite a simple circuit with not that many corners really. The enormousness of the circuit and the extremely different parts of it give the TT something that nothing else can match. The North West is semi reliant on the TT, probably a big reason why it survived and the UGP didn't. Its seen as the shakedown event prior to the TT.

[@elemar5]

Isn't it exciting to watch riders pitched against each other?@@theant9821

[@poppajretired410]

The most exciting form of racing on earth. The skill required to constantly shift your body weight to become one with the machine for optimal performance must be fatiguing.

[@NicoBakkernes-m4h]

Wat een mooie motor sport prachtig

[@whiteknob7944]

Cold tires man. Must be like ice out there.

[@radost0514]

i love how active suspension is here!Did they have electronic stability help ? i mean does the bike stabilize itself ?

[@mrmotorvator5151]

Definetly not active suspension on superbikes..forks are available to buy from ohlins around 10k.. The rear is ohlins spring and damper around 5k

[@mrmotorvator5151]

Electronic aids are banned on the bsb spec bikes

[@radost0514]

​@@mrmotorvator5151 yep probably its the new tech with rod inside the columns of the suspension ..its the new thing ..MotoGP have similar system

[@theant9821]

Active suspension offer so much potential like it did in f1. But Active suspensions drawbacks are bigger on bikes. In f1 Active cars were notoriously numb hence why they Suited aggressive drivers that commit and trust the car to know what to do. Like Mansell and Senna, whereas smooth drivers like Prost struggled with it, he's said so himself. But on a bike feeling is so much more critical as bikes are inherently more unstable. You want the advantages of stiffer front suspension on heavy braking for example and softer down the straights But, making all this work seamlessly is very difficult. With proper active suspension the computer decides what the suspension will do, it receives all the information and decides how much pressure it should put in to resist the movement and return to a normal ride height. And with active on a bike the normal ride height changes depending upon the circumstances as you want it set well for every part of the circuit not just a compromise for the entire circuit. So there's so much information and setup to do its much more difficult than with a car. A car has the advantage of always having an ideal position in relation to the ground (pretty much) Williams and Lotus did experiment with having the car lean into the corners but i don't think they ever actually raced with it. There's a real good photo of Damon Hill 1993 at silverstone with 1 wheel way up over the kerbs but the car is still perfectly level to the circuit. In a passive car that would have created allsorts of issues as it would try an lift the whole car from that corner not just the wheel.

I believe this is the race where Dunlop tires were failing and Hickey is under contract to ride Dunlops. Him and couple other riders has to sit out.

[@Vivianissime]

Je n'ai aucune admiration pour les kamikazes qui roulent come des malades sur des routes aussi dangereuses, la course moto est déjà bien assez dangereuse comme ça sur des circuits adaptés. Le TT de l'Île de Man n'est plus GP d'Angleterre depuis la mort de Gilberto Parlotti en 1972, qui fut le 101ème mort sur ce circuit dément, mais les Anglais n'apprennent jamais et sont coincés sur les habitudes ancestrales. Qu'ils se tuent donc entre eux, s'ils aiment ça, mais personne ne pourra les admirer. Sur le continent, les circuits routiers ont été fermés et les pilotes ont cessé de risquer la mort à chaque chute, même si on a perdu Christian Ravel, Jarno Saarinen, Renzo Pasolini, Patrick Pons, Michel Rougerie, Olivier Chevallier, et bien d'autres hélas.
