Isle of Man TT 2007 - The Mountain - Part 5 - Kawasaki ZX10R

Video clip from just before the Gooseneck to the cones leading you towards Creg-na-Baa. Managed to get a reasonable run through with 170mph on the Mile, a nice close up of a Ford Fiesta's arse and a few lessons on how to overtake on the inside! Lots of fun and a real pleasure to see someone getting the most out of their bike - big respect to the guy on the ZX6. All in all, not a bad 5 minutes to be sure.

Amazing riding, RESPECT.

from another ZX10 08 rider

Regards,

Glad you liked it mate. Had a test ride on the new 08 a wee while ago and must admit I was tempted but, I've only had mine for a year and I'm still getting to know it. Just stuck some goodies on it as well - Power Commander & TRE and she's going even better. Think I'll wait for a while before I try something new. :-)

All the best.

Was the road closed one way then? Nice riding mate keep up the good work :)

[MarkHatRedlineIX]

Hi matthie92,

Yep, they made the mountain road (from Ramsey to Creg-Na-Baa) one way for the whole two weeks last year (instead of just on Mad Sunday). The idea was to try and reduce the amount of accidents and I heard it worked. In fact they've decided to do exactly the same thing again this year.

All the best.

Fine riding, mate. Did Kawasaki install a separate compartment for your scrotum under the seat?

[MarkHatRedlineIX]

Glad you enjoyed the video and the bike has to take alot of the credit - it's great to ride and lets you push your own limits just that wee bit further.

arguably the best biking road in the world.... awesome but soo dangerous..!

[derekolsen999]

I think what amazes me so much is the overall level of riding skill of everyone, even with the one way etc etc ,too bad the drivers are no better ,same here stateside ,as an ex-pat in the US you really do see some awful riding, not all but a lot,props to you guys back home.
