    Don't apologize Freddy for it not being a high class production. We are honored to even have the perspective you have given us. Race is tuff at the best of times. Thank you for sharing this little insight into a high level of motorcycle racing.

    The video was very well done, even with iffy sound. Racing is loud to begin with. Thanks for giving everyone a seat in the tent with all that happens at a race.

    I was on the toilet when I started watching this video. I had to pause and wrap it up to play this on my 80” OLED to fit all that muscle on screen

    Always love watching the videos and great to see behind the scenes footage of what you guys actually do to make the wheels keep turning! People don’t realize the time and dedication it actually takes to be competitive. Great job and team work. One of the many reasons I only use SBU for all my motorcycle needs!

    I was there and standing on the overhead bridge at the S's when Mathew layed it down in one of the practices.
    I was immediately bummed for him as he's one of the guys I pull for every weekend.
    The heat was brutal, I can't imagine being in full leathers riding a heat machine at 110*f.
    Thanks for the insightful video!

    Fantastic to see some of the behind the scenes stuff. It's really cool to get to understand what a team gets up to in the garage where you make it all happen!

    A really great video showing the "behind the scenes" perspective of
    the very high pressure you all are under at a MotoAmerica event. I really
    enjoyed watching the entire video. The sound quality is not a problem for
    me knowing how loud it can get a any racing event. I sure hope you do more
    videos like this one. Well done and thanks!
    Keep yourselves safe! 😃👍❤🏍

    I never understood how some riders could wear leathers without an under-suit the i would always get stuck in the suit if i tried that lol… with an under-suit the suit doesn’t stick to me which is way more comfortable when on the bike and i feel the under-suit keeps you cooler on hot days too… especially if you mist yourself down with some water b4 putting your suit on.

    I can see how that flamin red ducati of Josh's was running at 110c. What's that V4R putting out, like 245whp like they claim? Yeah, that's almost a fire-breathing factory motor. Pretty hard to compete with on a purely hp basis.

    How hot do the bikes get sitting on grid after warm up lap before race start? Do some people shut off the bike for a sec and coast to their grid and then restart when the green flag comes out and lights go red?

    • @SuperbikeUnlimited
      @SuperbikeUnlimited  Před rokem +1

      Depends on how long they hold them. No one restarts, it’s too risky. Usually around 100c /212f

Almost wanna shut the bike off and pull of the grid. Not trying to blow a 10k motor for a club race. But I’ll be doing couple motoA stock1000 rounds next year. Thanks for taking the time to respond.
