  • 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.

      @@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. 👍

    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.

    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 ✊️

    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!

    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?

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???
