  • With the nerves of first practice over we rejoin Dave Hewson, Martin Morris, Rick Kay and Stuart Clotworthy as they build up their speeds around the famous Isle of Man mountain course.
    But it's not all smooth sailing as the toughest race track in the world starts to claim it's mechanical victims.
    Who's broken what? and are the boys still having fun?
    Many thanks to the IOM government for allowing us to use some onboard footage for this video.

    I'm glad you got your ice cream. I was concerned you might not get your ice cream quota in. Keep up the good work.

      Sorry to hear that bro, but I would suggest keep riding and take up some mma/bjj , the mental focus will transfer to everyday riding and the mental benefits it gives u in day to day life will be outstanding. Hole u get better onwards to ur journey mate

    So lucky you didn't seize the TZ, but on the flip-side, broke another Priller, but on _that_ flip-side, got custard donuts. Is that why you _really_ do it, Dave? The free sweet baked goods? 🤣
    Also where was Adam on his NC35? That would have been wicked fun on the mountain.
    Seriously though, I was moved by your end-piece, about having 45 miles of wonderful road all to yourself, that's what dreams are made of. Brilliant.

    Watched you working on a belly pan in the pits last week so I thought you didn’t need to be told how much I enjoy listening to you. Started with you working on the SP1. Thinking about trying the Rapid Training, but after watching you through Ramsey and the Goose Neck I think after 49 years riding on the road it may be a little too much for me. Keep up the good work.

    • @obsession_engineering

      Thanks for swinging by and with the training it's very much for any level of road riding, but we don't usually ride quite that fast 😁

    Dear Dave AND your team
    what is about oil/gearbox oil viskosität ?
    and do you take inform about Beringer Break's (systems) ;any experiances?
    all in all "what we can see/hear at this video" we know and this are steps which should be done 😊
    i was surprised by 8 surfaces (break discs) at a ~230mm diameter for front wheels ...but nothing to read about the stearing-angle combine to the frame or due to the frame ...

    • @obsession_engineering
      @obsession_engineering  Год назад

      I know of beringer, but they're not used much in the UK.
      Over the years I've used oem, brembo, pfm and moto master discs. All can work well but the pfm and moto master are my favourite

    Must be one of a very short list of race tracks where riders take money incase they don't make it round.
