Michael Dunlop is part time. He owns tipper lorries, a veterinary clinic, builds engines and owns a restaurant/bar. He has 19 TT wins. However, Guy was a fantastic rider and in any other era, would have had at least half a dozen TT wins. He’s a tremendous character.
@@88pedro888 difference is he works for someone else and MD works for himself, he has employees that do the work, guy grafts 60hrs a week and then races on weekends, kept his true grass routes racing attitude. Not to say he would of won anything but certainly takes it toll
It took me a whole season of watching 'Speed with Guy Martin' before I could understand him...and I'm a Aussie and speaking gibberish is a national past time. He's a true British treasure. 🙂🇦🇺
I've been a car enthusiast since April 72 and worked in the motor trade till early retirement. The engineering knowledge Ricky has is mind boggling, I could listen to him all day :)
Same here been a mechanic all my life raced and tuned engines and it's amazing to listen to ricky and guy i must of gone back a few times and listen again lol.
Guy was unreal and should never be diminished in anyway by anyone! The problem is he was racing at a time of prime mcpint/hutchy/dunlop etc who would of competed for wins in any generation especially at the TT. Just shows how unique the TT is you need to be quick and have luck on your side too, how many unbelievable riders almost won but didn't and damn well deserved it! Just one of those things
What a pleasure to watch. No idea who the other man is, but both very very smart blokes. Britain needs individuals like these. Full credit. Guy is a true one off.
These 2 dont even know the cameras running the farther they get into the chat... Totally relaxed , just like they are in the pub having a good chinwag about their passion.. Excellent.
I came here wanting to know how to get my 1.5hp petrol lawnmower running a little better! I'm now considering making it dry sump, adding 9 more cylinders in a V arrangement, running it on methanol, adding a quad turbo setup to get my mowing times down to sub 5 seconds! 😳😁
Inliterally stumbled on this video ...Amazing and mind boggling conversations. Thank You for recording these videos. Best 1hr1/2 ( video 1, video2 x2 ) of my life this week on RUclips. These guys are encyclopedias of knowledge and experience . I could watch and listen to Guy and Ricky talk for hours. I am a die hard motorcycle rider @ 💚 and amateur racer...👍✌...👊🇨🇦
@@REPerformanceUK Your Welcome....WMRC In British Columbia, .Canada at our small ( 9 turn ) local track @ Mission Raceway. I Seen James Holland from JHS one day there, I was completely shocked. Once again would like to see more videos of Guy and Ricky , obviously when schedules permit.... Good lucky Ricky with the Business in 2022...✌🇨🇦🏁
It’s insane that Guy Martin thinks he’s a below average rider! I’m glad this guy said electric isn’t for him! I agree. Engine noise and vibration is such a massive part of motorsports!
Late to your channel - so apologies :) Was caught by the R1 rebuild, now catching other content. Loved hearing the "real" Guy speak, with more adult language than he is allowed on his TV series 😇 I had thought you were a Hoovies/Schmee type channel, but now realise (based on the R1 content and the chat with Guy) that there is real engineering going on here, so have subscribed with interest...
Mate, loved listening to this, you must have gone so high in Guys world, your engineering talk looked like you were losing Guy, very difficult to do because that fella is a walking, talking engineering robot!! I could listen to you pair for hours 👏
When I watch Guy’s TT runs, I just ask myself how did he get so lucky?! Then I realize 1) his skill is next level & 2) God was watching over this man 🙏🏼
I always notice up Norf bikes are more popular down south. Used to go up from Brum up to the peaks, loads of bikers up Norf but down South you don't see that many. There was this cool cat a bit older than us but he had Honda VFR...
Guy mentioned Chris Mehew, I used to work with his brother Les in the octane testing lab at the oil refinery in Immingham docks. Les helped me rebuild a cr250 motocross engine!
Jesus... That was SO FAR above my head, But i could have listened all day !.. Glad guy got out, he scared me at the tt.. I was told NOT to buy another bike, so i took up Munros, fell 200+ ft down rockface, broke most things including my back in 4 places... Told i would never walk again... 5 yrs later I'm on 2 sticks but I'll never dance again (never could 🤣) 👍keep them coming 🏴
Incredible stuff, what this fella doesn't know about his particular field just isn't worth knowing even Guy is taken aback at the information. Brilliant!!!
As a avid drag racing fan 4 wheels and two to hear you talk of Jack Valentine Ian King Larry Mcbride the sound of a pro mod engine top fuel bike with a v10 in bits on the background is basically crack cocaine to me add the most down to earth tv TT racer /Scania tech all round nice bloke Mr Martin I am hooked absolutely pukka vlog
Just found the channel - this was a great chat and I've enjoyed the other vids of yours that I've watched. I'm guessing the YT algorithm sent me here from watching Mat Armstrong. Interesting to here about the in cylinder pressure measurement. I've been considering a TFX Engine Technology system for years but the cost is $$$.
Love it. Different characters but kindred spirits. Makes an awesome conversation/video Although it does look like a good ol boy farmer talking to Mr Hitler
Curious as to why their is a picture of the Skoda which held the land speed record for a production car, on the wall. The engine in that was built by Tim Radley at Race Developments....
Rickey love your videos your understanding of what goes on and what you understand and the way you explain what's going on in the internal combustion engine is on another level as well as your approach to cleanliness and room temperature to achieve the tolerances that obviously must be achieved is incredible, you remind me of a guy I worked with in a Porsche dealership in Nottingham in the late 80s early 90s called Tony Lyon at that time he was a 6th year apprentice and the only man in the UK that had shelled all 3 Porsche models the 944 the 928 and the 911, I am curious have you ever come across him we were great friends back then before I moved back to Dublin, long shot I know but just asking, love the videos mate.
Sorry just read your text again ,I thought you were asking about whom they were talking about the guy he's talking to is Rickey he owns a company called 're performance you should check out their you tube channel they really know their stuff complete genius.
@@jerrooney8714 Hi mate, thanks, for that yeah I've been looking at some of there videos, he definitely knows his stuff, he's a clever bloke.. It was just when he was talking about racing his bikes at different tracks etc, I was just trying to work out, had he, or does he race, privateer or otherwise... But yep he's a switched on bloke👍 Cheers again mate.. J. 👍
Astounding conversations in these videos. Surrounded by shiny trick prompts for going off at another wonderful tangent... I love it! Questions everywhere and nearly answers to all of them. Pure mechanical logic and a strange Hitler hair cut. The mind boggles and this is excellent. Keep em coming please!
WOW next level conversation I have been interested in tuning from a spectators point of view and never knew about most of what was talked about. Very interesting stuff 👍
How humble is guy,jesus the tt is mad,kirbs,houses brick walls to crash into and he thinks what he's done us like taking the wheelie bin out. The tt is the elite club.

@lucille then I hoped you went in and told them off for swearing...!!!
Gilf! 😘
You have some cool boys mam
Go girl. Love it.
hope the dont start arguing over cerial
Guy being humble. He was a better TT rider than he admits to. He did unbelievable for a bloke who was part time.

@@88pedro888 Dunlop owns all of those things because of his TT success, not the other way around.
@@iamtherealzombie big prize money
@@ct9683 Not that much prize money from the TT, I don't think... but sponsor money perhaps
Guy is honestly a British gem often over looked. Pure passion and one of the lads

He's a true British treasure. 🙂🇦🇺
Brilliant. Didn’t understand 99% of it but just loved the passion of two top guys having the crack over their mutual interest. Awesome!!
Same as..lol..bless but loved it
the knowledge theses two boy have is staggering
Has to be 1 of the best chats I’ve ever listened to unbelievable knowledge 👌

Man alive this is glorious, "having a brew" with Guy Martin. Thank you both.
Thank you for watching. It was great to have him at the workshop. Could have chatted all day.
Thoroughly enjoyed watching two such knowledgeable talents. Neither one talking over the other, no BS just a mutual love of their subject.
Thank you!
Wow,the real Guy ! Fascinating talk. Thanks for recording.
What a pleasure to watch. No idea who the other man is, but both very very smart blokes. Britain needs individuals like these. Full credit. Guy is a true one off.

Absolutely not one bit interested in being famous or looking at the camera.priceless 👍mint

I don’t really ride on the roads so don’t notice it tbh! But I can see why bikes are more popular up north with the roads you have!

Always a proper watch with the chief,enthusiasm and great knowledge.👍💪

Yeah Chris is a very well respected bike engine builder….Honda wizard!
loved every minute of this.
I enjoyed this so much
So intriguing!!
Enjoyed every second of that, brilliant
Thank you!
I wish I had 1/10 of the engine building knowledge those boys have. Also would love to see yall build a VAG 2.7t for giggles.
Crazy knowledge between them!!
would love to meet guy if he pops in again
I can see Guy's brain thinking he needs to up his RUclips game. And he will. Great video.
