  • This week I've been joined by my good mate and Isle Of Man TT legend, Dan Cooper, or "Coops" as he's better known. This boy can properly ride a motorcycle and has some incredible stories about his days competing in the world's scariest road race. From dodging errant sheep at 170mph, to riding with a dislocated arm - it's proper hair-raising stuff!
    We also catch up with the preparation of our Yamaha R6 race bikes, before we head to Spain, and show you some of the differences between them.
    It's a long video, but well worth a watch to get an insight into just how scary it can be to compete at the TT, the ultimate test of man and machine.

    As a TT and Manx GP anorak I loved this episode. Thanks to you Rik for giving up the time to make all these videos. Hope it continues for a long time

    Ricky’s passion for bikes is clear to see and I think he loves them more than cars. Great video lads and more like this please.

    Loved this, first time on the channel, TT born and bred, we live for those two weeks of the year….definitely coming back to have a look at the content….don’t forget, MD chucking a leg over a TT marshals bike at the MGP, and doing a 129 …. lap, on a stock Honda 1000 , road tyres , standard fairing, mirrors and all….cheers…👍👌🇮🇲

    I can’t wait for the TT this year, that is some amount of money for a race bike. Totally understandable why it costs so much , it’s eye watering though.

    Great episode, I enjoy both 4 and 2 wheel content. I live in Canada and only able to enjoy the TT via the CZcams coverage.

    The TT and race talk was excellent, a great insight into racing mentality. The TT is bonkers but gob smackingly brilliant !

  • @mickydebargos
    @mickydebargos Před 2 měsíci

    Possibly the best content I've ever seen in any CZcams video. Dan and every other rider that takes part at the Isle of Man, absolute heroes, every single one of them 😍

    Great watch, those R6's are miles different to the 2007 ex Virgin cup bike I raced in 2011. Loving the TT stories, my hat goes off to anyone that rides there. 👍🏻

    Really enjoyed that episode. Even including Guy Martin, the humbleness of the TT riders is something astonishing - and something I have nothing but admiration for... More tea needed though...

    Great upload,I've been to a few TT's & go to the Classic TT every year.When I first went it surpried me where some spectators stood,I don't think they're aware that if things go wrong there's going to be pieces of motorcycle flying toward them at high speed 😵.

  • @flyingdutchy01

  • @nicksidell4797
    @nicksidell4797 Před 3 měsíci

    Bloody brilliant on that one Rick But the price of the pieces on them R6’s Let alone the big bikes just like telephone numbers, makes my prod days of LC racing look like peanuts, compared to today’s prices enjoy your time in Spain and have fun

    Does the Thru rod Ohlins cause less cavitation compaired with the TTX and whats the difference in service intervals, if any?
