well said nev !  i just wanna add that despite there being four turbo's n two supercharged bikes entered , shane was the only one of them to do it , the next best forced induction bike was in the 160's ......... it takes a lot more than just a powerfull bike !

Come on Guys. We all entered knowing the rules and fair play to Shane and his awesome speed. I would love to afford a Turbo and aim for the 190 mark. Sponsors welcome - please form an orderly queue. The Irish guys are among the best people I have ever met in my life and really there is no need for such remarks either way.

How things move on !

11 years ago I hit 150 mph on a standard R1

Check out my video 130 MPH 2 mile wheelie in the wet!

bear in mind this is 12 years ago.

I wish I had a turbo back then !

Well done shane from a fellow irishman !

all the best Ed

@Bovrilbadboy these comments are clearly from someone who hasnt ridden a turbo bike, its not easy. for the price of a 2006 or newer 1000 cc bike u can buy a k3 k4 and turbo it there are people at this event which spend much more money on building tuned aspirated bikes becuase they dnt have the balls to try something diff. shane has prooved at both the wheelie record and the wheelie drag racing this year its a good option. is a handfull and as for ted he only had the bike 2 weeks b4 hand.

@Bovrilbadboy keep your pikey comments to yourself...jealousy is an awful thing..if you are so clever then get your smart arse on a bike and try and beat shane (my brother) next year..doubt you wud have the guts though.
