- Over the last few months, I have made some videos giving you a closer look at the Superstock bike, so whilst we had some time at @TTRacesOfficial we filmed a closer comparison as promised.
Sit back, grab a beer and let me show you the OMG Racing Superbike and Superstock bikes. I explain some of the details we have to consider when we take on the TT Mountain Course.
Please add any questions to the comments below and I will do my best to answer them.

Thanks for all the feedback and comments! Snetterton next for the British Superstock, any questions for my next video please let me know!
James is a classy guy, great racing James this year was epic,glad the boys are finally getting the recognition you deserve
Thank you
Was really hoping to hear the separate bikes !
Crap !!!
Brilliant insight - I think you've given the best description of the two class of bikes I've seen
Many thanks!
@@jameshillierracing Much thanks James! (Greetings from Canada)
Clearly doesn't just ride bikes fast, knows about them too. Very eloquent and informative.
What a fascinating incite. These guys never stop during race and practice time, hats off to all of you. James is a class act.
I can't beleive this dude was about to race the TT....as chill as he was. Thanks for showing us your stuff man.
One of your best videos yet James: excellent detail and insight, with no pause or break the whole way through. Like the mind of an engineer, translated to standard English for us normal folk!! Top job man, fair play!!
Thanks for the feedback! Trying to think of interesting content all the time as it’s enjoyable to make and interesting comments 👍🏻
@@jameshillierracing Improving every time - takes a while to find your groove, but you're nailing it, and items like this come across far more natural, when it's clear it's something you enjoy. We need to get you over here to Mondello (Ireland!) some day (I'm one of the track instructors here - too old to race any more!! Haha!!), as Jack Kennedy would be a regular guest instructor, being local. But we've had Jeremy McW here and a certain pre-fame Hicky here, taking the michael out of the rest of us saps trying to keep up with him, as he just practices drifting for a laugh! Glen Irwin has even taken my own Panigale around, giving a couple of clicks to the suspension as we were similar weight (made no difference to me.... I was still sh1t!! 🤣). Anyway, keep it up my man, always a good watch. 👍
@@GarryMcGovern Thanks!
Excellent explanation of the two bikes and what makes them different. Met James at this year's TT - he was selling his hot sauce after the last race - and he seemed a lovely guy - happily posed for a photo and signed my lid. He had a great TT and posted some good times. And then went home safely to his wife and children.
Great video! Iove the bike content especially. I'm in the process of modifying my R1M ('16) for canyon/track riding so I love hearing your thoughts and the details of what you're running. Keep up the great work and we'll see you next time.
Such a legend, James. Love hearing you speak about the bikes and racing. You do a great job of explaining things
Fascinating deep description of it all…suspension appreciate it. I’m not a road racer on bikes so it helps me understand… I have go kart and dirt bike experience….thanks love the videos. I’d so love to ride one to the limit but almost 58 now so kinda late in life for it all 😂
Awesome thank you James 👍🏻
Found this after watching your 2024 kick off. This is great to understand the differences and what is done to manage the laps. 😎👍
Really great video, great to know about all the smaller details on each bike. TT24 here we come! Good luck James!
Well done matey. Great insights into how much thought and dedication goes into the development of these awesome machines. Love it thanks 😊
Glad you enjoyed it
Subscribed. Thank you!

Great video James and great to get a insight to the difference in the bikes. Top job fella.
Thanks 👍
Nice video James 👍🏿 great to see the bikes and what you are doing
Oh well, i ended up watching it all. Very comprehensive run down of the bits and pieces needed to make the bike comply with regulations and suit the rider. Thank you James!
Brilliant James 👍🏻 It was a pleasure to watch and hear you on that beautiful stocker in the first Superstock race ✊🏼🍾🏁 and on the Supertwin.
Brilliant video as usual and content, you explain everything really well and it's easy to take in. I watched you through K Tree section a few times this TT and your line is superb for taking videos on my phone. The stock bike sounds superb as well. 🏍️👍
Thank you
Enjoy listening to james…please make more thanks
Planning more very soon
Always say yes to louder exhaust sound! 😁
Great video, thanks
Great insight,thanks James,top man.
Nice . Thanks James . Very in depth and well explained 👍🏻
Thanks James! Great insight and fun to hear it from the Pro.
What a cool insight on what you guys are working on to get the bikes set up 🔥🔥
Amazing James! bikes look and sound so good! pleasure to have been on various parts of the course and start line seeing you prepare for battle & rinse these very high end machines! problem is your going so fast, scary thinking that back brake is for that use ! i tip my hat off to you as always ! thanks for the pictures and what you do ! Very professional James Hillier 🏍️🇮🇲🏁
Great insight James, thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it
Super explanation, by a superb gentleman.
Brilliant video. I’ve been following the TT closely for years but still learned a lot watching this thanks James 👊
Glad it was helpful!
Great insights!!
That was fantastic!! Really interesting and informative thanks James
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent James.
Fantastic video, I was waiting since for this patiently since you spoke about a thumb break, Remember the question from me? I miss the rear break pedal in your video. Now I could see it on the left hand side. Thanks for this awesome video, we all appreciate that you spend some time with your fans this way.
No problem
Big fan of yours James. Great insight into the bikes. Thanks!
No Problem
Great explanations, very informative.
Glad it was helpful!
Great Video
Brilliant video, your knowledge is fascinating, and you can ride!!!
I learned so much from James. What a bad ass.
Hilliers a proper legend.
Great detail and very articulate. Good luck , hope you have a fantastic time.
Thank you.
Superb James. Thank you mate 👍
Very welcome
Quite informative ❤
Very informàtive, thanks James.
Great video,superb tech insight into the bikes.. explained very well
Much appreciated!
Hey James, fab insight into the differences between the 2 big bikes. I like you calm voice and attitude. Was great watching you burst onto the scene a few years back. Respect for what you do James ❤️💯
Much appreciated!
Cheers!
Pretty interesting, cheers 4 sharing sir.
Glad you enjoyed it
Insanely gorgeous bike!!
This is brilliant. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Mr Hillier, thanks to give your precious Time to your supporters. Wish you the best!💪💪👍👍
Thanks for the info and clarifying the classes. Yamaha is my #1 bike. Loved your interview and good luck.
Very interesting James, thanks for posting. Well done on a solid TT too.
Glad you enjoyed it
What an expert explanation! Amazing very didactic also.
Fantastic info,thks.
No problem!
Yeah great vid ✌️❤️🏍️
Thanks 👍
Top shelf lad.
Awesome vid!
Thanks!
very interesting vid thanks for that
Glad you enjoyed it
Rear footbrake also is something I will never get comfortable with. You only use it when you really need it and maybe even has to save you. I will never understand why something as important as a brake is below my boot
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hello James , thanks for the video , great insight 😎,
A question for you or your mechanics, do you use gaskets on the factory line exhaust also used in wsbk?
The flanges are shaped like the exhaust port so seems weird to use ori gaskets for this, hope you guys could answer this question, thx in advance, keep up the good work ✊️
Great vid James. What are the small holes for on the bottom of the screen? To cool the dash?
Great guy
Where did you guys get the front fork coating? The gold looks awesome
Great explanation for people that might be new to the sport 👍
Thank you
I'm suprised you run Road Shift with those big boots! In the tuck, I can't make my ankle work right to upshift, so I run GP/Race Shift. Then when I situp for braking/corners, my foot somehow naturally finds its way under the shifter to pull up to downshift. Its nice that we have the option these days, I love the front brake adjuster!
Really interesting video james explaining all the tech about the bikes and the rear thumb brake
subbed now for future vids
Thanks!
Great video comparison James 👍. Two quick questions - You mention the very obvious temperature warning lights, but what do you do if they come on? Is it a case of pull over and stop, or ease off a bit or something else? Secondly, the suspension manufacturer you're using this year is one I've never heard of. Is it a new company or one that's just not known outside of the race paddock?
Good video and great racer 👌
Thanks! 👍
What's your thoughts on Peter Hickman taking the course record to 136.358 on a Superstock spec machine considering the Superbike would be looked at as superior, massive thanks to you all for an outstanding 2023TT.
He was miles ahead, didn’t need to push the super bike, he wanted to bring home the win.
He hit all his markers and no back markers, everything fell into place for Hicky.
The difference between the two is not much now too over the TT Mountain Course.
Thanks James really appreciate that. 12 L per lap is insane consumption, it really highlights how much you are at 100 % throttle.
And I use every drop! I ran out on the return road at the end of the Senior 😝
@@jameshillierracingI have always wondered if the decreasing fuel load is noticeable? and the tires....😮 from riders to the bikes to the crews, its all amazing and a rush just to watch. Hats off to all of you!
Really interesting James well explained many thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video why do u have a holder forvthe fuel cap on the stocker but not the superbike
Ah it was swapped over between the bikes for each race.
That was good. 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
James is an extraordinary racer who has every chance of winning a senior TT, the day Will come for him im sure!!!
Great video
Thanks!
Well.....from what I can understand....riding a superbike on the TT course, is as good as it gets to fly an F 16 in a hostile environment!!! And that is so awesome....I am in awe!!! The precision over the calculations of the decision making process...during the course of actions, is just staggering!!! Riding a motorcycle is no slouch!!! A rider must be on top of its game, like an aircraft fighter pilot!!! In a hostile environment... After all...what is life if you havent pushed your mind and body to the limit and everything in between???
very very interesting
What timing! Jon Boy is my nextdoor neighbour and just last night I was quizzing him on the differences between the two bikes.
Haha! Maybe I do a video with JonBoy next time too :)
@@jameshillierracing - He needs to be front of camera! 👍
Them bikes are amazing nice one
Hi james excellent video as always on you channel. Can you give so more information on what the filler cap holder is called and where you get them from would be very hand for our pitstops at the manx gp this year.
Thanks. They are home made from seat foam 👍🏼
Love the livery….JOHN PLAYER SPECIAL😍😍😍😍😍
You know your business 👌
Excellent James. Why are there holes drilled at the bottom of your screens?
It’s to allow air in behind screen and kind of balances to air behind the bubble, reducing the buffering 👍🏻
thanks James hopefully better results next year when i come back to the island ,them stock bikes look slow with no wheels involved but really to me it seems those big bang yams are more as with the dukes track focused , jimmy my old china you need a normal il4 mate God bless
black and gold, delish
Always in the hunt, smart guy, I just love James pulling hard for him this year! "If I'm being a wimp"...yeah, NOBODY could call you a wimp I'm pretty sure my friend!
Love this, not just saying what parts you are running but explaining the reason why you use them
How do you accelerate hard in 2nd, need to be short shifted to 3rd or can you go full throttle thoughtout with just the thumb brake
2nd nearly always requires a short shift as. Always alot of thumb brake.
James you are awsome.. me and my girlfriend both sponsored you for the dakar last year ...we hope you decide to do it again ❤
Thank you. Still not decided yet.
Well played James lad
Fantastisk informativ video for some 1 like myself Who is interested in the technical side of rating, more of there, of when you have time & energi ride safe👍
Informative vid, Surprising you don’t even have a rear brake foot lever as well as the thumb brake lever and also the road shift pattern I found interesting
We don’t use the foot brake with the thumb brake fitted, so more room 🙂
